A swanky two-floor penthouse crowning 15 Hudson Yards is up for grabs for just under $25 million. The dramatic 88th-floor duplex occupies the top two levels of the 89-story building and offers 5,211 square feet of interior space. Altogether, the ultra-modern aerie comprises four bedrooms and six-and-a-half baths. Of course, given that you’ll be perched way above the grid, you’ll have access to some pretty striking sights, too.
The soaring penthouse faces both south and west with views of the Hudson River down to the Freedom Tower and Statue of Liberty. Not to mention, you’ll also be able to catch a glimpse of Thomas Heatherwick’s Vessel, in addition to The Shed, the megaproject’s $475 million arts and culture center.
15 Hudson Yards is the brainchild of Diller Scofidio + Renfro, who handled the design, alongside the Rockwell Group. The supertall sits roughly 900 feet in the air and broke ground in 2014 with sales commencing shortly after in 2016. Completed in 2018, Penthouse 88B was the first of the development’s condos to list, however, it has yet to find an owner.
The palatial pad is one of four duplex penthouses in the building, decked out with soaring 26-foot ceilings in the great room, hardwood floors, and curved floor-to-ceiling windows throughout that bring in loads of natural light. One highlight is the sleek oak-and-glass staircase that connects the two floors and also doubles its own dazzling showpiece. Overall, the space is bright, airy and sophisticated, and if you happen to like what you see in terms of furniture, well, that can be discussed as well.
Based on the current configuration, the apartment sports a custom Bulthaup kitchen, its own private internal elevator, and a double-sided fireplace. There was clearly no holding back when it came to the primary bedroom, either; it comes equipped with not one but two bathrooms and dual walk-in closets. If you’re all about spaces that are multifunctional, you can also create little library nook or media room on the first floor—or it could be a fourth bedroom. There’s even an option for an additional staff suite.
Naturally, the tower features its own slew of over-the-top perks which residents can use at their leisure. There are actually 40,000 square feet entirely devoted to amenities. Think everything from a sprawling 3,500-square-foot fitness center to a sparkling 75-foot indoor swimming pool, a yoga studio, tasting rooms, and private dining areas. There’s also a golf simulator, screening room, wine cellar, and pet spa. The alfresco space is just as impressive, and no, we’re not just saying that. The roof deck has actually been dubbed the highest outdoor residential amenity in the neighborhood. Jaw-dropping vistas aside, it’s pretty incredible all on its own.
Related Sales LLC and Corcoran Sunshine Marketing Group hold the listing.
