An elegant guest bath with marble counters and intricate tilework completes the main level. The gourmet kitchen features sleek Italian‑designed cabinetry, honed black granite countertops, a Bertazzoni gas range and hood, Bosch stainless steel appliances, filtered water at both sink & refrigerator, a walk‑in storage room, utility closet, and a dedicated balcony with stainless FireCraft smoker grill.

The spa bath includes a 6 jet soaking tub, floor‑to‑ceiling glass shower, double Duravit sinks with Kohler polished nickel fixtures, and imported stone. A second bedroom with a mirrored wall functions as a guest room, gym, or office, with an adjacent bath featuring a spacious travertine and mosaic steam shower. A private rooftop terrace crowns the penthouse, offering sweeping city & mountain views. Additional highlights include 4 balconies, 2 side‑by‑side parking spaces near the elevator and storage room.
