It is not only transformers, but also different phases IIRC. Conceptually, being a shared medium, it would actually be good if PLC stopped at the per-apartment power meter ... it probably does not.

Flat profile ethernet CAT6 cables are surprisingly convenient to fudge around in a way that while not beautiful is not "an eye sore", and easily carries 1/2.5/5/10 Gbps ethernet full duplex (no TDM no FDM)... If you get them in white on a white wall they can be made inoffensive with little effort.
