New Construction! This two-story, custom-designed penthouse atop the iconic Park Laurel offers the pinnacle of luxury downtown living with sensational views of the San Diego city skyline, the Pacific Ocean, eastern mountains & Balboa Park. Accessed through a private elevator, the entrance welcomes you with meticulously cut Natural Brazilian quartzite stone slabs on the lower floor, seamlessly blending with hand-planed and stained wood floors on the upper level.

Custom brass in-wall controls and smartphone integration effortlessly manage lighting, with drywalled can lights creating a seamless aesthetic. Cove lighting adds a soft glow around columns and ceilings, setting the perfect ambiance. The residence boasts an integrated AV system with concealed in-ceiling speakers for uncompromised sound quality. Custom-stained white oak cabinetry and wall paneling, featuring toe kick and specialty lighting, grace the space with soft-close drawers and doors.
