About this home

Mt. Rainier to the South, Port of Tacoma East and Commencement Bay to the Northeast! Views from the sixth floor wrap 270 degrees around you. Unobstructed. Permanent. Floor-to-ceiling windows draw the panorama into every main living space, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out. Step directly onto the terrace from the living room, kitchen, den, or second bedroom and experience a perspective few residences in Tacoma have to offer. Positioned on a floor of only five homes, Unit 605 occupies a setting no other unit can claim — a true architectural penthouse offering 1,760 square feet of single-level living, complemented by an extraordinary 1,000-square-foot private wraparound terrace, largest sixth-floor terrace in the building! The kitchen is both elegant and functional, featuring premium stone countertops, a full-height tile backsplash, a suite of KitchenAid appliances, including a built-in refrigerator, oven and microwave. Open-concept design flows effortlessly to the terrace, creating an ideal setting for entertaining or quiet everyday living. What truly distinguishes this residence from every other penthouse on the market is its remarkable privacy and exclusivity. There are no shared walls with neighboring units, a semi-private elevator serves only two residences and the sixth-floor layout is separated from the remainder of the building. Result is, a home that lives with the privacy and comfort of a luxury single-family residence — without the maintenance.
