This $10 Million San Francisco Penthouse Has Views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Coit Tower, and Alcatraz
Price differential aside, to really appreciate the landmarks of San Francisco, you might just be better off buying this penthouse than taking a double-decker bus tour.
The top-floor perch at the Royal Towers in Russian Hill has hit the market for $10 million. The modern abode, designed by Napa Valley’s Erin Martin, is a sleek home base in one of California’s most picturesque cities. From the 29th floor, you’ll have unobstructed views from the downtown skyline to Coit Tower, Alcatraz, and both the Golden Gate and Bay Bridge. James Nunemacher at Vanguard Properties holds the listing.
The two-bedroom, 2.5-bath unit encompasses 3,640 square feet on the uppermost floor of the William Turnbull Architects–designed building. The sweeping main room sports handcrafted woodwork, steel-trimmed aluminum ceiling panels, and artisanal plaster walls. In the living room, you can cozy up by the oversized fireplace that features a textured tile, while the dining area is capped by a circular ceiling feature. The chef’s kitchen, meanwhile, is decked out with Fisher & Paykel appliances, custom poured-concrete counters, and multiple pantries.
In the serene primary bedroom, the calming monochromatic vibe continues with a discreet ceiling-mounted TV. Dual sinks made of artisan-fabricated concrete anchor the primary bathroom, which also comes equipped with a soaking tub.
