Overlook Central Park in This Opulent New York City Duplex That Asks $27.5M
At 5,000 square feet, this Park Avenue penthouse is just two blocks from Central Park. With soaring 11.5-foot ceilings, the condo space is flooded in natural light while enormous floor-to-ceiling windows offer endless views of Central Park, the Manhattan skyline, Park Avenue, and beyond to the George Washington Bridge. The Juan Pablo Molyneux-designed home consists of five bedrooms, five full bathrooms, two half bathrooms, as well as another studio overlooking Park Avenue, a wine room, and two storage units.
Located in one of New York’s most coveted limestone condominiums at the corner of Park Avenue and 60th Street, the duplex spans the entire 36th and 37th floors of the 43-story building, and is joined by an onyx staircase with an intricate wrought iron railing.
Every room in this residence has double exposures either north and west over Central Park or south and east with iconic city views. Molyneux’s luxe finishes consist of Parquet de Versailles floors, onyx and marble floors and door surrounds, a 19th-century French Scagliola fireplace, and Guerin hardware throughout. The private elevator landing leads to a grand entrance gallery with onyx and marble patterned floor, a soaring 11.5-foot tray ceiling, and that sweeping onyx staircase with wrought iron railing.
The private corner library is off the living room and has long views north and east. Across the entrance gallery is the corner formal dining room with Parquet de Versailles floor and floor-to-ceiling windows with views to the ornate top of the Pierre Hotel and Central park beyond.
A lavish onyx powder room is off the entrance gallery. The large dine-in chef’s kitchen is state-of-the-art with a marble floor, center island, custom cabinetry with marble countertops, Thermador, SubZero, and Miele appliances, and a breakfast area. A staff bath is off the kitchen.
The upper floor has four corner bedrooms, including the enormous corner primary bedroom with high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. The huge spa-like ensuite primary bath has a large window, double vanity sinks, a jacuzzi, and walk-in shower. Two oversized walk-in closets complete the suite.
The second bedroom offers beautiful views with a large walk-in closet and ensuite bath. The third and fourth corner bedrooms face east with plenty of sunshine, and matching amenities. A laundry room completes the floor.
Amenities include a Crestron sound and lighting system, fiber optics, and central air conditioning. The white glove condominium offers a full-time concierge and valet service, elegant lobby, windowed private sitting room off the lobby, state-of-the-art fitness center, dining salon with catering kitchen for residents, conference room, and 24-hour security. The residence is teeming with as many creature comforts as luxe design details.
