Penthouse Life is the Life For You, Right?
In the elevators of New York’s tallest residential buildings, there can often be found a coveted button. It’s labeled not with a number, but with the two holiest of letters: PH, i.e. the penthouse. New York’s skyline is peppered with them, and if you’re lucky enough to call one your home, you probably know the joys of a sprawling terrace with expansive views. This Upper East Side residence at 26 East 63rd Street, currently on the market, is no stranger to the open air breezes that accompany rooftop living.
Located in a Beaux-Arts building on Madison Avenue and 63rd street-a prestigious block on Manhattan’s Upper East Side-the 16-room apartment boasts 7,000 square feet of living space. The eleven foot ceilings and oversized windows flood the apartment with natural light.
But wait-there’s more. The penthouse is topped with a sun-filled solarium and sprawling terrace, arguably the best place to spend a summer afternoon in New York City (think: private rooftop dining, tanning, and entertaining, all with an enviable view of the city). And all this for a cool $29 million, which might seem expensive to most of us, but it's an absolute steal in a city where apartments now sell for more than $200 million.
The apartment is listed by Reba Miller at Berkshire Hathaway Home Services.
