Description
On the edge of Honolulu's Kapiolani Park, this Gold Coast custom-built penthouse overlooks the majestic ocean, swaying palm trees and Waikiki's famous shoreline. Remodeled in 2012, in the Hawaiian Island style, this penthouse includes rich custom cabinetry of Koa and Mango woods, a fossil stone entry hall, and 24x36-inch travertine floor tiles. The kitchen features Miele and Sub-Zero appliances, soapstone countertops (which is nonporous and resistant to bacteria) and a custom glass back-splash that resembles the ocean's waters. This custom glass also enhances various doors, windows and shelves throughout the apartment. Enjoy the 3-zone AC on those warm Hawaiian days, or listen to your music of choice from built-in speakers in each room. At days' end, relax in your Hammered Copper Japanese Soaking tub. Then refresh with your favorite drink and watch Waikiki's city lights from your 245 square foot ocean lanai.
