The California property once asked $4.2 million, but will now sell to the auction’s highest bidder without reserve.

The penthouse is located in a unique building.

The Sacramento Kings’ Golden 1 Center, a LEED Platinum certified development that is one of the U.S.’s most technologically advanced sports venues, is just steps from the condominium. Residence owners have “VIP” access to the arena (with ticket) via a private “tunnel” passageway in the building’s reserved parking level. CaliforniaLuxuryAuction.com.

Floor-to-ceiling windows throughout the penthouse allow natural light to fill the interior spaces, while providing panoramic views of Sacramento’s skyline, the Sacramento River, Golden 1 Center, Downtown Commons (DOCO) area, and notable city landmarks such as the California State Capitol and Tower Bridge.

Loyal Kings fans are sure to appreciate a particularly unique amenity of the Sawyer development: a direct, "VIP" entry to the arena via a private, underground passageway located within the building's reserved parking levels. "It's certainly a convenient address for a member of the Kings' team or executive staff," said Trayor Lesnock, founder and president of Platinum Luxury Auctions, the luxury real estate auction firm retained by the penthouse owners to conduct the sale. "Though the building's many amenities and prime location offer broad appeal for anyone seeking a pampered, luxury lifestyle in the city of Sacramento."

Michael Onstead, a veteran downtown real estate broker with Coldwell Banker, who is listing the penthouse and working in cooperation with Platinum in the transaction, agrees with Lesnock, "This is arguably the premier condominium residence in the city's premier residential development, rich with features and services and convenient to all of the city's main attractions."

The mixed-use development was completed in 2018. Its lower levels contain the hotel and the Kings' executive offices, with the uppermost levels reserved for the residences. The ground level of the hotel provides a private entry for residents and Kings executives, separate from the elevators for hotel guests and accessible only via electronic keycard. This private entryway opens to a staffed lobby with a dedicated bank of elevators.

The penthouse offers approximately 2,950 sf of living space, with 3 bedrooms and 3 en-suite baths. Its southwestern exposure provides particularly dazzling sunset views, which drape the surrounding cityscape in a mixture of beautiful orange, red and soft purple tones. A large balcony off the main living area is ideal for al fresco dining or people watching on the streets below.

Additional features of the residence include electronically controlled shades throughout, large-plank hardwood flooring, a sumptuous primary bath with mosaic tile walk-in shower and soaking tub, generous closet space, and a sleek, modern kitchen with marble island and bar-top seating. The penthouse also conveys with 3 covered parking spaces serviced by valet.

Private residents of the building enjoy 24-hour keycard access to the building's fitness center, along with a private owners' lounge which includes multiple meeting rooms, a catering kitchen and common areas. They also have a la carte access to services provided by the Kimpton Hotel, such as housekeeping, room service, laundry and more.

Other building amenities include a rooftop pool and lounge with poolside cabanas available for private reservation. Adjacent to the pool is Revival at the Sawyer, a chic restaurant and cocktail bar serving creative cuisine and inspired cocktails, with indoor and outdoor seating. On fair weather days, a "wall of windows" opens the restaurant to the pool deck. Hotel common areas also provide direct access to both Echo and Rig restaurant, an upscale steakhouse by critically acclaimed chef and restauranteur Sam Marvin, and Punch Bowl Social, a 25,000-sf venue offering casual dining in addition to indoor bowling, darts, billiards, ping pong, karaoke and more.

Previews of the penthouse are available by daily appointment through Mar 20^th, and may be scheduled by contacting Platinum's project manager, Trudy Vella, at 800.997.4235. Additional details, property visuals, and due diligence documents are also located online at CaliforniaLuxuryAuction.com.
