True luxury penthouse in the sought-after Johnson Simons building in Downtown New Haven, steps from Yale, the hospital, and fantastic boutiques & restaurants. This extraordinary 2300+ sq ft architect-designed condo wows with its soaring ~40 ft ceilings, exposed brick walls & striking style. The open-concept living area is an entertainer's dream - anchored by a sleek state-of-the-art kitchen straight out of a magazine. With a dramatic waterfall island with marble, Wolf induction stove and oven, Subzero fridge, and custom cabinetry with professional lighting- it's truly a chef's kitchen. Adjacent to the kitchen is a pantry with cabinetry and a Miele washer & dryer. The living room has incredible natural light through a ceiling-wide skylight, hardwood floors & whitewashed brick walls. A spiral staircase leads to a contemporary loft, an ideal space for a home office or flex space. The opposite side of the condo includes a family room with exposed wood rafters and a gas fireplace that opens to the balcony. The primary suite has a spa-like bathroom with radiant floors, and there is a second contemporary bedroom and a remodeled full bath. Smart features including lighting and blinds. Incredible expansion possibilities with huge ~900 unfinished attic space and rights to a portion of the rooftop to design and build your dream outdoor space. Gas heating, central AC and a private storage room in the basement. A condo of this magnitude never comes on the market!
