Description

Introducing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a TURNKEY, breathtaking duplex penthouse in one of the city’s most coveted prewar Art Deco co-ops located steps from the Guggenheim Museum and Central Park. This one-of-a-kind residence offers an unparalleled living experience, with direct and unobstructed views of Central Park and the iconic Jackie Onassis Reservoir. Fresh from an extensive 18-month gut renovation, which commanded a substantial six-figure investment, this residence has been transformed into a masterpiece of sophistication and style.

Every material has been hand-selected to ensure the highest quality, with no expense spared. At the heart of the penthouse lies the stunning state-of-the-art kitchen, equipped with top-of-the-line appliances from SubZero, Wolf, and Miele. The elegant marble countertops and flooring from The Complete Tile Collection create a luxurious and inviting atmosphere, perfect for crafting unforgettable meals.

One of the apartment’s most unique features is the operational wood-burning fireplace, equipped with an exceptionally rare 18th-century French mantel from the era of Louis XV. Imported directly from France, this historic piece infuses the living space with an incomparable blend of charm and warmth, creating an inviting ambiance for relaxation and entertaining. The wrap-around terraces are another standout feature of this luxurious penthouse, offering an abundance of outdoor space rarely found in the city.

With southern and western exposures providing direct, unobstructed views of Central Park and the Jackie Onassis Reservoir, these terraces seamlessly extend the living areas, creating a harmonious blend of indoor and outdoor living that will be cherished for generations. The bedrooms offer a peaceful retreat, with Manhattan Shade and Glass roller blinds and blackout options for ultimate privacy and rest. Ceiling heights in the bedrooms were raised to 11 feet!

The bathrooms showcase luxury at every turn, with Waterworks fixtures in the penthouse, including a bathtub in the second bedroom’s ensuite. Glasscrafters vanities grace the guest bathroom, while a Devon&Devon toilet adds elegance to the powder room on the 16th floor. Restoration Hardware taps and sinks, topped with Carrara marble, complete the luxurious feel.

The penthouse’s adaptable layout allows for easy conversion into a three-bedroom home if desired. Throughout the penthouse, you’ll find the perfect blend of modern amenities and thoughtful design. The living spaces are enhanced by new Skyline windows , improving energy efficiency and offering sweeping panoramic views.

A convenient Miele washer/dryer set streamlines your daily routine, while abundant closet space throughout the apartment ensures that storage will never be a concern. Apartment PHD features a newly installed central HVAC system by Mitsubishi Multi City, ensuring year-round comfort. With AprilAire controls and five distinct climate zones, you can easily customize the temperature settings for each part of the apartment, allowing for individualized cooling and heating preferences.

Constructed in 1936 by Wallenstein Construction Co. and designed by William M. Dowling, this distinguished full-service co-op provides residents with exemplary amenities, including full-time doormen, a live-in superintendent, and a state-of-the-art windowed laundry room. The building also boasts a newly landscaped rooftop terrace, a new gym, and is pet-friendly.

2% flip tax is payable by the purchaser and the building allows max 50% financing.
