Description

Low monthlies and exceptional scale define this bright, south-facing duplex penthouse perched atop a well-serviced cooperative in Midtown East. Offering nearly 4,000 interior square feet and approximately 1,500 square feet of private outdoor space, Residence PHC delivers true house-like proportions with the ease of white-glove city living. Oversized south-facing windows crowned with skylight-style transoms flood the home with natural light, while oak hardwood floors, dimmable recessed lighting, and thoughtfully separated living spaces create a serene, highly functional flow. Remarkably, despite its central Midtown location, the residence enjoys exceptional quiet and privacy.

The main level is designed for elevated entertaining. A generous living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace connects seamlessly to a flexible adjoining space ideal for a bar, wine display, library, or play area. A house-scale dining room comfortably accommodates large gatherings, while a first-floor bedroom and full bath offer versatility for guests or a private office. A dedicated laundry room with a vented Miele Professional Series washer and dryer, the same grade used in luxury hotels and spas, and abundant storage reinforces everyday practicality.

The expansive kitchen centers around a substantial island with banquette seating and features extensive pantry-style storage, custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a Wolf range, Viking hood and Viking wine refrigeration, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and Bosch dishwasher. Designed for real living as much as entertaining, it offers direct access to both the living and dining areas, ensuring a seamless flow.

A floating staircase beneath overhead skylights enhances the home’s architectural openness as you ascend to the upper level, where a dramatic wall of glass opens to a massive south-facing terrace that functions as a true outdoor living room. Wired for sound and pre-wired and plumbed for a hot tub, this exceptional outdoor space meaningfully extends the entertaining footprint. Two well-proportioned secondary bedrooms share a double-vanity bathroom, while the primary suite enjoys three exposures and direct terrace access. The suite features an en-suite bath and an oversized walk-in closet, creating a private retreat removed from the entertaining spaces.

Additional highlights include two-zone air conditioning, building-supplied heat, integrated interior and exterior sound wiring, the ability to bring the home back to its original five bedroom layout, dedicated basement storage, and daily doorman service from 8am to midnight.

A rare opportunity to own a light-filled, flexible penthouse sanctuary with substantial outdoor space and unusually low carrying costs in the heart of Midtown. Offered for the first time in over a decade and owned by only its second owners, this is a truly uncommon Midtown offering. Listing courtesy of Keller Williams NYC ...
