About 595 Albany Street #ph
The city outside. A complete home within. A penthouse in the truest sense, occupying the entire top residential floor with direct elevator access, a private wraparound terrace and roof deck with its own head house. The Penthouse at 595 Albany offers approximately 2,517 square feet with four bedrooms, three full bathrooms and a powder room. The elevator opens directly into the residence and continues to the head house above, creating exclusivity and convenience rarely found in the city. Designed by award winning Planeta Design, the interiors balance architectural clarity with warm, layered materials. Three sunny exposures and oversized windows, prewired for automated blinds, fill the home with light. Linear ceiling lighting turns the hallway into a gallery for art. The expansive living and dining area centers on a dramatic two-sided fireplace, formal dining for twelve and a custom wet bar. Large panel bi folding glass doors open the living room to the wraparound terrace, bringing in fresh air and abundant natural light. The generously scaled kitchen pairs custom cabinetry imported from Italy with high end integrated appliances, Carrara veined stone surfaces and a large walk-in pantry. An oversized statement island anchors the room and provides space for gathering, dining and preparation. The corner primary suite is set apart from the other bedrooms, with southwest exposure and beautiful Back Bay views, a walk-in closet and its own bi folding glass doors to the terrace. The tailored four-piece primary bathroom features a large double vanity, European style shower with a backlit linear niche, freestanding soaking tub, heated mosaic tile floors and custom lighting. Three additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms offer space for family, guests or an office. The private head house includes a custom bar, built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator and custom storage cabinetry, and opens to the roof deck with Back Bay views and gas, water and electrical hookups. Two deeded, heated garage spaces provide direct building access and shared EV charging. A secured lobby and package storage add ease. Positioned where SoWa’s Art and Design District meets the emerging South End Exchange district, 595 Albany keeps galleries, studios, design showrooms, independent shops, acclaimed restaurants and celebrated markets close at hand. The South End’s brownstone streets and parks are moments away, with easy access to Back Bay, Downtown, the Seaport, major highways and Logan Airport.
