The $21.5m penthouse in Ode features a rooftop spa with incredible harbour views.
Downsizers have snapped up one of the most lavish penthouses in Sydney’s east, paying just under $21.5m for an apartment with a rooftop terrace with spa and spectacular harbour views.
The unidentified couple, moving from a waterfront mansion, bought one of three penthouses in developer Top Spring’s $200m Ode project in Double Bay off-the-plan for $21,495,000 just before Christmas.
The sale in the Luigi Rosselli-designed block is the second-highest apartment sale in Double Bay, the highest being for a larger 311sqm penthouse with 148sqm private terrace in Ode that sold for $24,995,000, also to a retired couple, last August.
