Step into a private world of sophisticated design and modern elegance with this luxury 12th-floor corner penthouse in Plaza Towers. This architecturally designed residence features two stories of stunning floor-to-ceiling windows, showcasing spectacular panoramic vistas and inviting in the beauty of nature as a central feature of the interior décor. The southern exposure and unobstructed views offer warming sunlight in cooler months and star filled skies. Polished concrete floors throughout accentuate the blurring of boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces, leaving one suspended in serene, sunlit tranquility. The main living area epitomizes open-concept design with a sense of grandeur, enhanced by the impressive volume created by two stories of windows. Kitchen, living room, and dining areas flow naturally in the central living space. The kitchen is designed for ease of use and integration into the architectural concept, equipped with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and a spacious island complete with a wine fridge. Sleek quartz, stainless steel surfaces, and a unitary glass backsplash enhance the modern aesthetic.
