Limestone House vs. Index- where would you live?
Hello ladies:
Our current lease on a 2bdrm in Lofts (downtown) is expiring soon and we're thinking of trying out a different experience. Since both my husband and I work close to DIFC, we're considering buying in Limestone House or Index tower.
I find that Limestone is incredibly charming, great locale, very plush surroundings & finishings, short walk to metro and restaurants in DIFC and SZR but the major drawback appears to be less light, average views, no balcony, and the inability to open any of the windows!
Index tower has a totally different feel- pros: high floor- lots of light, beautiful Downtown & Burj view, lots of space, very functional. Cons: very stark (everything is white-walls, floors, cupboards, bathrooms- not a splash of colour anywhere! Just google the index images and you'll see what I mean), no community around it, have to walk a while to get to any restaurants or the metro. I feel like if we buy a place here we'd have to spend quite a bit of time and money making it look cozy- doing the paint, maybe putting wood/laminate on floors and of course drapes.
We don't have any kids so the kid-friendliness factor doesn't play into our decision.
If anyone has any experience with either of the two buildings, or has some interior design/decorator background and is familiar with Index I would love to hear how you would make it cozier.
Many thanks in advance!
