Alvar’s Premier Penthouse: Closest to the Sand, Front Row to the Pacific

If you only settle for the best, this is the one. Of every residence at Alvar, this penthouse sits nearest the beach, and the vaulted ceilings found only on Alvar’s top-floor homes give it an openness and scale nothing else in the building can match. There is no better condo in Alvar. The four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath layout has been professionally designed and furnished with premium pieces throughout, and the kitchen is fully equipped with Viking appliances. Arrival is private: the elevator rises straight from the enclosed garage and opens to your own foyer at the penthouse door.

Every bedroom has its own generous en-suite. The primary suite is the standout, with an oversized walk-through glass shower and a contemporary soaking tub set against a wide window looking out over the Pacific. Each bedroom has its own personality, whether through custom millwork, designer wallcoverings, or a four-poster bed, and each bathroom carries distinctive accent tile. Curated lighting and a collection of sculptural and wall-mounted art complete the interiors.

The great room, primary suite, and second guest suite all open onto an expansive front terrace built for entertaining. Floor-to-ceiling sliding doors disappear fully into the walls, merging the indoor living area with a matching outdoor lounge. The terrace includes a wet bar, grill, a media nook with flat-screen TV, and high-velocity industrial fans. A remote-operated hurricane screen lets you enclose the space for comfort without giving up the view. Sightlines extend across the ocean and the renowned Jack Nicklaus Signature course at Quivira Golf Club.

Practical details are well covered: the laundry room connects to an exterior stairwell as a secondary exit, and the unit includes two assigned spaces in the enclosed garage, a shaded spot for an oversized golf cart, and a full-size walk-in storage locker.

Ownership at Alvar comes with an exceptional lifestyle. The community’s planned clubhouse will feature a pool, jacuzzi, fitness center, and lounge. Owners enjoy discounted access to the Quivira Beach Club, Quivira Golf Club, and Pueblo Bonito’s restaurants and spas, plus Q-Life benefits and discounted stays across all Pueblo Bonito resorts. And golf here is only getting better: a second 18-hole Jack Nicklaus course is now under construction within Quivira.
