Live like a king & queen in this exquisite 3-story penthouse built and designed for the luxury mindset. Not a single detail was spared during the construction of this three-story beauty. Entering the unit, you are greeted by the most remarkable views from the floor-ceiling windows which flank the enormous, completely open kitchen/living/dining area. All the while you are just mesmerized by the gorgeous glossy imported Spanish porcelain tile floors whose sparkle shines throughout the entire unit, even out to the balcony. There are two separate living room areas: a more formal one in the center of the space and a more casual one off to the right which is where you’ll find a 65” hd 3D tv with surround home theater system. The large open-concept kitchen is a chef’s dream with seating at its breakfast bar, plenty of room to prep on the upgraded non-standard quarz countertops, and lots of custom upper/lower solid wood soft-close cabinets for storage. You will actually enjoy doing the dishes here as the ocean views are distracting, or take advantage and open the window to pass food and cocktails out to your guests on the balcony. Stainless steel appliances including a side-by-side fridge, dishwasher and wine fridge are included and there is even an induction cooktop stove & range hood/fan as well as a microwave and convection oven, which are tucked neatly into the cabinetry. The formal dining room boasts lots of space as it comfortably seats 8 at its table, and the showcase chandelier here as well as in the imported ceiling fan in the formal living room are one-of-a-kind truly luxurious pieces. A super spacious balcony is off the dining area and features plenty of room to entertain at cocktail tables as well as allow for the large Weber barbecue grill. Back inside, off to the right of the far living room you will find a visitor's bath with upgraded ada-Toto toilet and white granite countertop, and solid wood bathroom vanity. Nicely tucked under the stairwell is a large storage area with shelving to make this a great pantry or cleaning supply nook. The stairs are easy and have stainless steel railings and the landings are wide and large enough to accommodate oversized items. Head upstairs and you encounter a nice hall area with ceiling fan and large custom storage cabinet. On this level you will find three bedrooms and three full bathrooms, plus one bonus room which makes for a nice sized office/study or a fourth bedroom. The master as well as one other bedroom, has access to the balcony that runs the length of the condo and is a great place to hang your hammocks. The master has everything the other 2 bedrooms do, plus the extra-large floor-ceiling windows for a complete panoramic view of the Salinas beach skyline – from the comforts of your 4-post king-sized bed with Sleep Number mattress. Here you will also find a large walk-in custom closet with a window to let in natural light, followed by a most fabulous en-suite bath with his/hers sinks and double shower heads. The other two bedrooms are all a tremendous size with queen-sized bedroom sets and boast nice views, plenty of light, air-conditioners, plenty of solid wood custom closets, tray ceilings with crown molding, and custom motorized window treatments and screens. The bathrooms all have non-standard granite countertops, imported fans, upgraded tempered glass shower doors, solid wood vanities, and ada-Toto toilets. Head up one more flight of stairs for the icing on the cake: a full private roof-top terrace of open-air entertainment bliss. The partially covered pergola area includes bar stool seating at the custom curved granite countertop bar with built-ins for coolers, outdoor sink on back wall, beverage cooler and built-in 40” 5-burner Cal-Flame bbq with convection grill and rotisserie. Off to this side there is a laundry/half bath area with washer, dryer and scrub-sink, and toilet. On the other side of the terrace is a large double-door storage closet, an outdoor shower with tempered glass doors, a hookup for your future jacuzzi, and a fabulous seating area outfitted with chaise lounge chairs replicating the most private exclusive beach experience. Besides the unbelievable beach, ocean and skyline views during the day, there are gorgeous nighttime views of the city which can be appreciated here as well. There is a roofline security system, a SurgePro protector on the entire property, a wireless camera security system, and 3 water purification systems. The unit comes with 2 designated parking spots in the covered garage, as well as 2 storage units which have plenty of shelves for storage. The building boasts 24/7 security, a 5-star hotel reception and lobby area with bathrooms, gaming area, meeting space, gym, 2 outdoor pools and jacuzzis, changing rooms, shower area, sauna and steam room.
