Tampa penthouse on sale for $6 million

There's a new penthouse available at the Tampa Edition selling for almost $6 million. The "junior penthouse," being sold by The Paul DeSantis Group of Premier Sotheby's International Realty's South Tampa office, is the one below the penthouse of Jeff Vinik, owner of the Tampa Bay Lightning and a minority owner of the Boston Red Sox.

And if the views of the Amalie Arena and the waters are not enough for you, the newness of it all might be: The junior penthouse has never been occupied.

The unit is located at 1000 Water St., Unit 2501, Tampa. The Paul DeSantis Group says the junior penthouse is the second most expensive residential unit on the Tampa Bay market. (Technically, the sales price for the junior penthouse is $5,999,900.)

Located along the Water Street district, the penthouse has three bedrooms and 3.5 baths, with 12-foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling impact glass windows, says the Paul DeSantis Group.

The kitchen has a marble waterfall island "adorned with under-mounted lighting and high-end appliances." It also has marble countertops in the kitchen and baths. And the penthouse has "a living moss wall that adds a touch of natural beauty to the space."

The residence is one of just 38 condominiums at The Tampa Edition, a development that opened its doors to residents in the summer of 2022. Amenities include an exclusive rooftop pool and terrace, a resident-only gym, a social kitchen, and a private veranda.

"This unit wasn’t available to the public until now," says Paul DeSantis. "A one-of-a-kind opportunity, the junior penthouse offers a lifestyle unlike any other. Its unparalleled design, luxury features, and breathtaking skyline views provide an extraordinary experience in the heart of Tampa's most exciting district."
