Atop the new Eliza apartment building on Sydney’s Elizabeth Street is a 499 square metre penthouse with views of Sydney Harbour.

Seventeen storeys up at 141-143 Elizabeth Street, the four bedroom, six bathroom penthouse also has a private lobby and an internal passenger lift.

With 3.8 metre high ceilings, the rooftop level is an entertainment option, with level 15 and 16 devoted to living and dining, as well as sleeping quarters.  Each floor is connected by a 10 metre high marble staircase.

All up, the penthouse will set back the buyer $15 million.

The rooftop includes a landscaped terrace, outdoor kitchen and transparent infinity-edge swimming pool.

The master bedroom, at 60 square metres, includes a private study and a walk-in dressing ‘chamber’.

The kitchen includes a walk-in pantry and separate prep area for catering. According to released marketing material, the fridge is worth $50,000. To put that into perspective, it’s more than many first timers put down as a deposit on their first home.

Basement storage and three car parking spots are also included, with a private driveway.

Industry figure John McGrath said that it is in a culturally significant precinct in Sydney.

“It makes use of the world’s finest materials and finishes in a technologically brilliant way, and everything is over-specified, including double glazing and acoustic innovations to ensure whisper-quiet interiors,” he said.

Built and developed by Ceerose, founded by Edward Doueihi, Eliza was designed by Tony Owen, the man behind the renowned Dover Heights property Moebius House.

“We wanted to create a building with an architectural point of difference that did justice to our landmark site in arguably Sydney’s most beautiful street,” said Doueihi.

“It took us more than three years to build, but the effort has been worth it.”

All 18 apartments in the Eliza block have been sold, with the penthouse the last to go to market.

The penthouse is available to inspect by appointment and is being marketed through Savills and McGrath Estate Agents.

It was previously being marketed through CBRE.

Furnished photographs will be made available next week.
