Welcome to Penthouse E at the Frost House, located in the highly desirable Lenox Hill neighborhood on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. This one-of-a-kind duplex boasts a private outdoor terrace with stunning open views, floor-to-ceiling windows, and an exquisite renovation that combines luxury and history. Formerly the home floor of Ace McFarlane of KISS and James Brown, the King of Soul, this penthouse is perfect for entertaining or as your private sanctuary.
As you enter the apartment, the huge windows and terrace overlooking 3rd Avenue will immediately catch your attention. The split-level apartment features a spacious living/dining area, central air, Legrand outlets, and grey, white oak floors with soundproofing. The open staircase is complimented by built-in bookshelves and a coat closet underneath. The kitchen is modern and sleek, featuring recessed lighting, quartz countertops, Bertazonni stove, Blomberg dishwasher, Franke stainless steel sink, Haier over the stove microwave and vent, Leiber refrigerator, touchless Delta faucet, appliance garage, Edelman leather and nickel hardware and Porcelanosa tile. The terrace has water for an irrigation system (with timer or hose) and electricity outside. It is the perfect space for sitting with friends or enjoying a quiet night alone.
Upstairs, the king-size bedroom is flooded with natural light and features two-bedroom closets, including a large walk-in California closet, plus a linen closet just outside. A reading corner and work-from-home space with open sky complete the space. The bathroom is tastefully designed with Porcelanosa tile, walnut cabinetry, a Kohler shower system, touchless toilet, and a Bain Ultra tub with cutting edge thermo-heating zones and Geysair massage technologies.
