Location: Tel Aviv, Israel
Price: NIS 30 million (US$8.7 million)
This duplex penthouse sits atop one of two new six-story buildings along swanky Rothschild Boulevard in Tel Aviv.
Each building will have four large apartments, a garden duplex apartment, and a duplex penthouse with a private rooftop pool and large terrace.
"Unlike penthouses that are in a tower, we’re talking about a penthouse that is in a much more intimate building, with only five other tenants in each building," said Yigal Zemah, marketing director of Villa Rothschild.
"There are very few penthouses with a swimming pool on Rothschild Boulevard, let alone in a small building that is not a high rise," he said.
The two new Villa Rothschild buildings sit on either side of a historic building from the 1920s by Israeli-Russian architect Joseph Berlin. "It’s a mix of old and new," Mr. Zemah said.

The project architect is Gidi Bar Orian, and the interiors are by architects Paola Liani and Itai Paritzki. Construction is under way, and "it will be ready at the end of this year," Mr. Zemah said.
"The apartment has a very flexible design," he said. "We think two or three bedrooms is the right size."
"The rooftop will be a fun place to hang out and enjoy the beautiful Tel Aviv weather," he added.
Stats
The 1,884-square-foot apartment will be outfitted for two or three bedrooms and three full bathrooms. There is also a nearly 1,100-square-foot balcony and terrace space, plus a nearly-1,000-square-foot rooftop with a swimming pool.
Amenities
Amenities include around-the-clock security, parking, a private storage area, a superintendent personally available to serve residents and provide various concierge services such as transportation, laundry, and restaurant and theater reservations.
In addition, the buildings will feature a wine cellar where every apartment will have its own temperature-controlled facilities.

Neighborhood notes
"Rothschild Boulevard is like the Champs-Élysées in Paris or Fifth Avenue in New York," Mr. Zemah said. "It’s where the top headquarters of the banks are, where the best restaurants are and with the best residential buildings.
This is considered the best residential location in Tel Aviv," he said.
