Description
Fifth Avenue Duplex Penthouse with Expansive Terraces Overlooking Central Park A spectacular duplex penthouse in one of Fifth Avenue’s distinguished Emery Roth-designed pre-war condominiums, this extraordinary residence offers approximately 4,400 square feet of beautifully restored interiors and approximately 2,200 square feet of exceptional outdoor space. More than 83 feet of windows overlook Central Park, while sweeping skyline views extend in every direction. With four bedrooms plus a den and expansive private terraces, the home offers a rare combination of grand-scale living, privacy, and seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining. The lower level is thoughtfully designed with an expansive eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, versatile den, butler’s pantry with wine refrigerator, and separate laundry room. It is currently configured with four bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom, including a maid’s room suitable for use as a guest suite. The den can function as a library, office, or playroom. The windowed eat-in kitchen features custom cabinetry and Wolf, Miele, and Sub-Zero appliances. The bathrooms are appointed with fixtures by Waterworks, Porcher, Kallista, and Toto. The expansive primary suite enjoys beautiful views over Central Park and features generous walk-in and reach-in closets. Its luxurious en-suite bathroom is hand-painted with gold leaf and features a custom-made Italian sink, inspired by a palace belonging to the late Duchess of Alba. Upstairs, a private keyed elevator opens directly into the gallery and expansive living room, creating an ideal entertaining level. The living room features a wood-burning fireplace and a home theater system, and opens directly onto the private terraces, offering spectacular views across Central Park and the Manhattan skyline. The terraces provide a beautiful setting for entertaining, al fresco dining, or simply enjoying the city’s views and sunsets. Meticulously restored and renovated, the residence combines the elegance and craftsmanship of its 1920s pre-war architecture with sophisticated modern systems and finishes. Additional features include custom shades and closet systems throughout, Lutron lighting and temperature controls, wall- and ceiling-mounted Sonos speakers throughout, new roofing and irrigation systems, and state-of-the-art noise-canceling, UV- and temperature-insulated double-pane windows. This full-service condominium offers 24-hour doorman service, a live-in superintendent, gym, and bicycle room.
