The area around Burnaby's The Amazing Brentwood has seen widespread redevelopment over the past decade, with a dozen or so high-rises either already completed, currently being constructed, or on the way, each with their own stunning penthouses.
One such penthouse, located two blocks south of the Amazing Brentwood, atop the 30-storey Milano at 2378 Alpha Avenue, is currently for sale. It spans two storeys, with two bedrooms and four bathrooms, all spread across 1,929 sq. ft of living space, which doesn't even include the 1,340-sq.-ft outdoor terrace that surrounds both floors.
The living room features a black-marble-enclosed fireplace as the centerpiece, raised ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the balcony and the surrounding neighbourhood.

The kitchen is equipped with a 48" six-burner cooktop and Caliber barbeque grill that makes it a chef-grade kitchen. It also features plenty of black marble and floor-to-ceiling windows.
The primary bedroom includes showcase-like, lit, glass closets, and the bathrooms are equipped with rain showers and steam showers, all of which are topped off with fixtures made by Italian fixture producer CRISTINA Rubinetterie.
Our Favourite Thing
When it comes to penthouses, a large portion of what you're paying for is the views, and the views from this penthouse atop the Milano are plenty. By our count, the windows and outdoor terrace provide up to at least 270-degree views of the surrounding area, which some may find to be worth the price of admission.
The entire penthouse is finished with herringbone walnut flooring, and all those floor-to-ceiling windows are equipped with motorized blinds.
Wrapping around the penthouse is the outdoor terrace, which includes a dining area, lounge areas, and a private hot tub on top of that. (It's literally on the rooftop.)

The penthouse includes a four-stall parking space with its own private garage gate. And as part of the Milano building, residents also have access to a variety of amenities such as an outdoor barbeque area, a putting green, a dog play area, a fitness centre, a multi-purpose room, and a concierge.
The Milano was completed in 2018 by BC-based Solterra Development Corporation, who calls it "a brilliant symphony of concrete and glass" with a three-storey lobby that "sets an underlying tone of opulence and grandeur." We're hard-pressed to disagree.
