    What's special

    Private internal elevatorPrivate gymStaff quartersMultiple dining areasWine roomFull industrial catering kitchenStriking architectural staircases
    A truly extraordinary penthouse spanning floors 9–12, this one-of-a-kind vertical estate redefines luxury living for the buyer who seeks unapologetic grandeur on a global scale. Located within the coveted Highland Park Independent School District and set inside a gated and secure boutique building of just 15 residences, the home offers a level of scale, privacy, and extravagance rarely found anywhere in the United States. Encompassing more than 14,000 square feet, the residence offers 5 bedrooms, 6 full baths, 7 half baths, and 7 fireplaces, with all four levels connected by striking architectural staircases and a private internal elevator - a true private estate in the sky. Designed for grand-scale entertaining and elevated daily living, the home features expansive formal and informal living spaces, multiple dining areas, and 5 kitchens, including a full industrial catering kitchen. The owner’s level is a private retreat with its own living and dining spaces, kitchen, bar, and extraordinarily styled custom dressing rooms. Other amenities include a private gym, wine room, rooftop terrace with spa hot tub, staff quarters, a dedicated office for a house manager and security personnel, and 12 reserved parking spaces. Advanced security features and discreet access create an exceptional level of privacy, making this an ideal lock-and-leave estate for domestic and international owners alike. With an ambiance more akin to a grand private residence in Manhattan, Paris, London, Monte Carlo, or the great capitals of the Middle East than a conventional Dallas penthouse, this home is designed for a buyer with a truly global frame of reference. It stands entirely on its own—an audacious expression of modern luxury for those who value abundance, presence, discretion, and a life lived at full scale. Combining the gravitas of a standalone estate with the convenience, privacy, and security of luxury vertical living, this is one of America’s most exceptional residential offerings.
