Coastal Florida has been seeing a pretty big real estate boom, which is no surprise considering the sunny weather and cultural scene — not to mention it being a short flight away from The Bahamas. If we were in the market, the Ocean Penthouse in Boca Raton is the first luxury home we'd snatch up. Found at 1000 South Ocean Boulevard, the penthouse offers 6,900 square feet of living space (with an additional 4,000 square feet of terraces) and gives residents amazing views of water to the west and east.
The four bedroom, four and a half bath condo is pretty much in the perfect location, with the Boca Raton Inlet to the west and expansive views of the bustling coastline to the east. There's also a spa and a 19-foot private pool (with a cabana) there in case you would rather look out onto the ocean instead of swim in it. The interior features 13-foot floor-to-ceiling windows and custom European finishes and furnishings by renowned designer Esther Gutmer, while oak and slate flooring is found throughout. The gourmet kitchen has Sub-Zero and Miele appliances, and there's also a climate-controlled wine cellarette — sure, it's not a full-sized wine cellar, but it'll do. There's also an outdoor kitchen on the terrace for cooking on those sunny days, which is just about every day.
You'll find Calcutta marble in the master bath (along with Dornbracht faucets), and there's a fully-integrated Lutron lighting and audio-visual system installed throughout the entire condo. Owners will also have their own elevator and three-car garage.
The Ocean Penthouse is on the market for $13.9 million and is being sold by Senada Adzem with Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
