Luxury Penthouse Condo in Downtown Raleigh

This residence was orchestrated with great attention to detail and the materials were carefully chosen for their quality and uniqueness. Features were specifically designed to echo a big city experience and maximize space. This 2 full ensuite bedroom home-in-the-sky is 1188 square feet, has a layout that unfolds beautifully and “lives large.”

As you step inside, you’ll immediately notice the majestic 12-foot ceiling, wide-plank cherry wood flooring, floor-to-ceiling silk dupioni draped south-facing windows and a large crystal chandelier.

The kitchen is outfitted with black honed granite counters, top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, ceiling-reaching maple cabinets and an abundance of lighting. The kitchen is open, easy to work in with plenty of preparation space and was built with extra cabinets for storing multiple sets of china, crystal and hosting accessories.

In the living room, oversized 9-foot windows tower above the swimming pool, sunbathing patio with grilling area and beckon you to look at the cityscape. An adjacent door leads to the home’s terrace with a Zen-like water fountain. The balcony is large enough for lounging on a summer day or retreating to as the sun melts into the horizon.

Hardwood floors, city-view windows and floor-to-ceiling silk dupioni draperies repeat in the master ensuite bedroom. This spacious suite opens to a bathroom appointed with white carrera slab marble double vanity—mirrored to the ceiling, cherry flooring and a 2-person double shower lined with polished white ceramic tile and glass. You’ll discover a brightly lit 12-foot ceiling closet custom designed for a fashion lover. Often closets are a second thought, but not in this penthouse. You’ll have plenty of room for your wardrobe—suits, long-hang, shirts and trousers. Adjustable shelves were built-in to accommodate lots of shoes, handbags and accessories.

The second ensuite bedroom, also featuring south-facing views, is configured as a den with cherry wood floors, floor-to-ceiling silk dupioni draperies, custom closets and bathroom. A cleverly created workspace/office wired with built-ins and chandelier is tucked behind one closet door. The other multi-purpose clothes closet was designed with adjustable shelves reaching to the ceiling and has plenty of room for garments, off-season, gowns, suits and accessories. The bath’s porcelain ceramic flooring and shower walls are accented with a frameless European shower door. Another chandelier accents the polished marble topped vanity.

Forget about the typical maintenance associated with a house—living here will seem effortless. This condo has an individual self-contained HVAC system, water heater, washer/dryer and includes 2 assigned parking spaces and enclosed storage unit.

Burn some calories in the Paramount’s fitness room. Enjoy the community area with full kitchen, billiards, big screen and sunbathing/pool deck access. The building has gated enclosed parking and closed circuit security entrances.

This luxury penthouse might not be for everyone; but it's perfect for a sophisticated buyer who enjoys convenience.
