This ultra-luxurious penthouse is one of the most expensive properties in the city of New York – it was previously up for auction at Sotheby’s for no less than $73.8m. But with a seven-room master suite, a library, an outdoor terrace and its very own ballroom, it’s easy to see why this opulent property has been given such a price tag.
Spanning three floors in one of the most sought-after buildings in Manhattan, this property truly is in a class of its own when it comes to luxury. There are five bedrooms, one of which is the master suite, and each offers spectacular views of downtown New York. The third-floor, right at the top of the building, is known as the ‘observatory’ – it opens up onto an enormous terrace, with panoramic views of some of New York’s most famous landmarks, including the Empire State Building.
The opulence is clear from the moment you walk through the door. A palatial atrium welcomes you, and you must wander up a spectacular bronze staircase situated in the centre. High ceilings and plenty of wall space make this the perfect property for an avid art collector.
The second floor is home to an entertaining space and an outdoor oasis which spans the length of the building, bringing some much-needed greenery to this urban jungle. There’s even space for a pool.
Of course, such a property doesn’t come alone. The building offers a 24-hour concierge service and valet parking. There’s a children’s playroom, fitness centre and indoor cinema – and if you should so choose, you could even purchase additional space in the building for your own staff. If money is no object, this property could be yours.
