Features
Description
This older apartment around Weihai Road provides about 80 sqm in a one-bedroom-plus-flexible-room layout. The extra room may work as a study, dressing area or occasional guest space, but it should not be assumed to be a fully enclosed second bedroom without checking the plan. A small private outdoor area adds useful breathing space in a central location, subject to confirmation of its condition and permitted use.
The apartment is positioned between the Nanjing West Road, People's Square and Huaihai Road areas, placing residents close to major retail, dining and central-city transport connections. The address may suit a single professional or couple who values an inner-city base and wants more flexibility than a standard one-bedroom. Ask about sound insulation and shared-building condition, as these can vary in older stock.
Underfloor heating is listed as a key feature. Tenants should confirm whether it serves the full apartment, how it is controlled and how utility charges are handled. The quoted rent is RMB 7,800 per month, which makes the size and central setting worth comparing with newer homes, while the older building may involve tradeoffs in lift access, storage or insulation. Confirm the exact room arrangement, outdoor-area use, furnishing, availability and lease terms before viewing.
The flexible extra room is valuable only if it matches the tenant's intended use. Confirm whether it has a door, window, heating and enough ceiling height for a desk or guest bed. The small outdoor area should also be checked for privacy, drainage and permitted furniture. Confirm the bathroom count, full floor plan and inventory before comparing the low quoted rent with other central one-bedroom homes.
