A SUPER-RICH multi-millionaire will get to enjoy the incredible five-floor penthouse with a giant infinity pool and its own slide when it goes on sale next year.
The luxury flat at the top of a new skyscraper in Monaco that overlooks the Mediterranean will set its owner back around US$400 million.
The multi-story penthouse is located in Tour Odeon, a 170-meter tower, which will be the Mediterranean coastline’s second-tallest building when it is completed next year.
As well as being equipped with a health center, multiple swimming pools and an in-house caterer, the building will offer its residents a 24/7 concierge service and a private chauffeur.
But the penthouse is set to stand out even in the midst of such extreme luxury, with its slide which descends from the balcony into the infinity pool making it a veritable millionaire’s playground.
Tour Odeon, with its 70 super-sized flats, is the first new skyscraper to have been built in Monaco since the 1980s.
Prince Rainier, who was then the country’s ruler, decided to half the construction of tall buildings on the shoreline over worries they were destroying the principality’s character.
But in 2009 his son and successor Albert reversed that decision and greenlit the Tour Odeon project.
And the tower has also been controversial among residents of Beausoleil, a neighboring town on the other side of the border with France, who complain that it has ruined their views.
