Description

This spectacular penthouse sits atop the Metropolitan, Carnegie Hill’s iconic Philip Johnson-designed condominium.

A gracious entry foyer leads into a dramatic living room with 10’5” ceilings.

Fourteen wrap-around windows flood the room with light and give breathtaking views over Central Park, the reservoir and as far as Long Island and New Jersey. Off the living room is a functionally-designed eat-in kitchen with high-end appliances, center-island and a washer/dryer. The 550 square-foot planted terrace is a Zen garden in the sky, facing north, west and east.

It can be accessed from the living room as well as the master bedroom. The primary bedroom suite has a marble bathroom with dual sinks, infinity soaking tub and a separate spa shower. Huge wrap-around windows, access to the terrace and two walk-in closets complete this luxurious suite. Two more large bedrooms with full baths and ample closets are located in this wing of the apartment. The Metropolitan is one of the most prestigious condominiums in Carnegie Hill.
