I got a tour of the penthouse on a recent trip to Miami with Douglas Elliman Real Estate. We took the elevator up to the top of the tower, where we stepped into the private grand entryway of the triplex penthouse.

Wraparound floor-to-ceiling windows filled the room with sunlight and made for beautiful views of the ocean stretching to the east.

... as well as Fisher Island, the richest zip code in the US, where the average income is $2.2 million and the beaches have sand imported from the Bahamas.
I stepped into the master bathroom, which features marble floors, double vanities, and large mirrors that reflect the Florida sunshine.

Next, I got a look at the screening room, which is decorated with several plush couches and chairs.

Each of the seven bedrooms has floor-to-ceiling windows and jaw-dropping views.

This one opens up to the same long terrace that connects to the master suite.

The eat-in kitchen has stainless steel appliances and marble countertops to match the floors ...

I stepped out onto the penthouse's main terrace and was blown away by its size.

The 6,091-square-foot outdoor space was empty during my tour, but I could imagine it fitting a BBQ area, an outdoor bar, and several spots for outdoor dining and lounging.

And finally, there's the private pool, which sits on the level above the main terrace and overlooks the Atlantic Ocean.
While I've seen some pretty swanky penthouses and condos in New York City, this one was truly on another level (pun intended) with its massive terrace, private pool, and incredible views of both the city and the ocean.
