About this home

At nearly 2000 square feet, this stunningly renovated high-rise penthouse is the crown jewel atop a 55-unit boutique condominium building at the apex of bustling First Hill and Capitol Hill. The masterful renovation of this incredible home with spectacular skyline views was a collaboration between the proud current owners, preeminent designer Susan Marinello and revered construction team Lease Crutcher-Lewis. The epitome of fine craftsmanship and timeless design; exquisite surfaces such as rich walnut floors, cabinetwork & built-ins, waterfall-edged leathered granite counters and travertine & Italian marble accents. Modern details include custom lighting, Lutron automated blinds and a sophisticated audio/video infrastructure. Two heat pumps provide central air conditioning & heating and two newly resurfaced balconies add outdoor living and entertaining space. This home appeals to buyers who value privacy, quiet living and a strong sense of community. While it comes with a secure garage parking space, stellar Walk & Transit scores of 99 mean no driving needed to enjoy tons of great local restaurants & shops. Within a 1-mile radius find multiple music and theater venues, community & cultural events, the Convention Center, The Northwest School, hospitals, universities, sports arenas, the Seattle Center, waterfront & ferries. An exceptional property in every way, this is urban living with warmth, substance, and enduring quality. One of only two penthouse units on the top floor.
