Enjoy Gulf Coast views from your own private balcony, lounging as you sip champagne, all while reading your favorite novel, listening to the sounds of the waves breaking below. Watch families of dolphins flurry off on their own adventures, summoning you to join them in the emerald coast waters bordered by white sugary sands as far as your eye can see.

As the largest penthouse in the building, there are two gulf-front master suites, large open and spacious living areas with slate floors and solid mahogany doors. The kitchen is open concept leading right into, not one but two dining areas, with the living room and private balcony all but a few steps away.

Additionally in your master suite you'll find a large walk-in closet, tons of ample room for storage, and let's not forget that private balcony. Step out and lounge on your private patio with the ocean below, views most only dream of, but for you an everyday occurrence. This is all part of the grandeur of this exquisite home.

Amenities include surround sound throughout the home, a custom control system that operates the lighting, climate, audio/video and shading systems, ample storage space as this home is full of large walk-in closets and storage throughout.
