Recipient of the prestigious 2025 KBIS Award for Best Millwork, Kitchen, and Bath, Residence 4A at The Palace is a truly one-of-a-kind offering that sets a new benchmark for luxury living. This 3-Bedroom, 3.5-Bathroom residence showcases extraordinary craftsmanship, featuring bespoke millwork by Laura Meroni, a Pittori kitchen, and an uncompromising level of design and detail throughout. Completed two years ago, the residence underwent a comprehensive, full-scale architectural transformation—not a superficial renovation. All interior walls were removed, leaving only the exterior structure, allowing for a completely fresh reimagining of over 3,000 square feet of living space. Ceilings were raised to enhance light, openness, and architectural impact. The private elevator opens directly into the residence’s exclusive foyer, offering complete privacy and a grand arrival experience. The home is further enhanced by all-new electrical panels and wiring, a new HVAC system, and impact-resistant glass, delivering modern efficiency, comfort, and peace of mind. No expense was spared, and budgetary limitations were never a consideration in the thoughtful redesign of this exceptional residence. There is simply no comparable home at The Palace. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a masterfully curated residence where elegance, innovation, and craftsmanship converge. A must-see in person to fully appreciate its exceptional quality and refinement.
