The San Francisco real estate scene has once again hit a high note with the listing of a palatial penthouse atop the storied pink high-rise at 2006 Washington Street. Priced at a cool $35 million, this Pacific Heights residence boasts 5,700 square feet, three bedrooms, and three full and two half bathrooms, making it the current market leader in high-end homes in the area.

Gregg Lynn of Sotheby's International Realty, who holds the listing, is no stranger to 2006 Washington's allure. Overseeing the sale of this tenth-floor haven, Lynn brings attention to its "unique wrap around terraces and panoramic views of all city icons," branding it as one of the most impressive apartments on the West Coast. Adjacent to Lafayette Park, the unit soars with 360-degree views of the cityscape and waters beyond, according to a report by the San Francisco Business Times.

Details on the residence's upscale touches and renovations were noted with a Georgian feel infused within the Beaux Arts architectural style by the combined efforts of architect Andrew Skurman and interior designer Suzanne Tucker. Prospective buyers can look forward to such features as a marble fireplace, retractable AV screen with projector, and remote-operated drapes that offer enviable creature comforts.

The unit, previously owned by Christopher Redlich, chairman of Healing Healthcare, was sold off-market in 2015 for $32 million, having been previously purchased for $14 million back in 2000. Redlich bought the property from Asim Abdullah, a former Silicon Valley tech executive, as detailed by a San Francisco Business Times report.

Despite its grandeur and the recent spike in luxury cooperative seekers, the penthouse previously listed at $45 million in 2021 only to be reduced to $35 million in 2022, has yet to find the right buyer. It remains to be seen whether its inclusion in designer Susan Tucker's "Extraordinary Interiors" will provide the necessary cachet for a successful sale. Those who desire further insight into the property's opulence can find it showcased within the pages of Tucker's coffee table book.

Residing in this crown jewel of Pacific Heights comes with the perks of a 24/7 attended lobby, access to a landscaped private garden, and a two-car parking facility for residents. According to the listing on Sotheby's International Realty, the monthly HOA fees for this slice of luxury exceed $10,000. Whether this high-rise residence will clinch the title for the most expensive sale in San Francisco's history, outdoing the $43.5 million off-market sale on Billionaires' Row in 2021, still remains up in the air as the city's affluent home seekers weigh their options.
