Description
There is nothing else like it in New York City, and there never will be again — a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own the crown jewel penthouse of Williamsburg. A full-floor penthouse, sprawling and open with soaring ceilings and walls of windows on every side, three bedrooms and two and a half baths with unobstructed Manhattan views, about 2,000 square feet of private outdoor space across two levels including an outdoor kitchen and a rooftop pool, and 124 square feet of private storage. The elevator opens directly into the residence, a rare top-floor layout with four exposures, soaring ceilings, and natural light pouring in from every direction, with sweeping 360 degree views of the city from the apartment itself. One entire side of the home is devoted to living: a long living and dining room flows into a chef's Italian kitchen, with walnut cabinetry by The Cut, honed marble countertops, and a wine fridge, all set beneath windows framing an unobstructed, panoramic view of the Manhattan skyline. Step through the living room onto a huge private terrace, fully landscaped and wired with Sonos speakers, complete with its own outdoor kitchen built for entertaining. On the other side of the home, three bright bedrooms each enjoy incredible light and views of Manhattan. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a spa-like en-suite bath with radiant heated floors, while the additional bedrooms share a second full bath, also with radiant heated floors. A private staircase leads up to the crown of the building: a second, entirely private rooftop with unobstructed, panoramic Manhattan views in every direction. A sleek swimming pool anchors the space, framed by a dining area, a lounge for relaxing, and a built-in outdoor kitchen, all landscaped and wired with Sonos speakers, a true 360 degree perch above the city. 185 Skillman Avenue rises six stories on a tree lined street in prime Williamsburg. It's a rare fifty foot wide elevator condominium with only eight exclusive residences and the amenities of a much larger building. A striking lobby of white oak paneling and glass block, a fully equipped fitness studio, a bike room, a private garage, and a package room with a remote intercom system for deliveries make daily life effortless. Just two blocks from the L train at Graham Avenue, the neighborhood is defined by its dining and its walkability. Cozy Royale, La Locanda, Mesa Coyoacan, ChinGoo, and the local cafe Good Thanks are a short stroll away, and destinations like Lilia and Llama Inn are just minutes from your door. Morning runs in McCarren Park, afternoons on the East River waterfront, and evenings at live music venues, galleries, and independent cinemas are part of everyday life here. The Penthouse is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own the crown of an architecturally significant, collector worthy building at the heart of Williamsburg. Contact us today to schedule a private showing.

Broker Commission Disclosure: Broker commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable.
How working with a buyer's agent works: I work for you, not the seller. Before I show you anything, New York brokerage rules ask us to put that in writing: an agreement and a disclosure that say I work for you and negotiate on your behalf. The agreement is non-exclusive: you can work with other agents, it runs for a short fixed term we agree on, and you can end it with a note. You may attend open houses independently without an agreement. Read how it works
