There's something lovably retro about this large apartment, from the bold colours and jazzy patterns to the eclectic selection of chairs positioned by the glass doors in the living room. Open these up and you'll step out onto the private patio space, where you can soak up the sun and admire the impressive mountain views — there's even a fire pit out there for when nighttime rears its head again.
