A Rare Penthouse with Sweeping River Views Welcome to the ultimate in luxury living at Vistas on the James. This penthouse isn't just a home; it's a statement. As a rare double unit on the top floor, this residence offers an unparalleled level of sophistication and space, all with commanding views of the James River. No detail was overlooked in the 2019 renovation, which included a full refresh with upgraded electrical with Leviton Renu. The result is a residence that exudes luxury, from the imported Noir Saint Laurent Marble from Italy gracing the baths, to the top-tier appliances, including a Wolf induction range, Cove dishwasher, and Sub-Zero refrigerator. The kitchen was expanded in 2024 to include a new wine cooler and a pantry. All plumbing fixtures are by Waterworks, including a stunning 70" freestanding tub, and solid brass hardware from Rocky Mountain Hardware. The primary bathroom features a fully automatic Toto toilet. All custom-built kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, and built-in bookcases were made with meticulous care, and the interior trim was upgraded throughout. The open floor plan is perfect for entertaining. The rich Bjelin natural oak floors and elegant crystal chandeliers create an atmosphere of refined elegance. With power shades and custom drapes by Specialty Drapery, you can effortlessly control the light and ambiance in every room. The unit includes two spacious bedrooms plus a lounge/office with an ensuite bath. All closets are custom-built, including the bedrooms, coat closet, and laundry/linen closet. Life at the Vistas also comes with exceptional amenities. You'll have two dedicated garage parking spots, one with EV charger wiring, a secured storage unit, and access to a 24-hour security team, a well-equipped gym, and a club room overlooking the Kanawha Canal. The washer and dryer are new, and both HVAC systems were replaced in 2023. This is more than a home-it's a lifestyle.
