New York (Turtle Bay), NY, 10017 | $6,900,000

Welcome to Penthouse A, where luxury meets convenience in the heart of Midtown East. This exquisite residence offers an unparalleled living experience, just shy of 3, 400 square feet of meticulously designed space over three different levels with the piece de resistance, a 1, 620 square foot roof deck. With four lavish bedrooms, three full bathrooms and unparalleled panoramic views of the iconic city skyline, this home exemplifies urban living at its finest.
The massive living room provides over 760 square feet of entertaining space and features a honed black granite wood burning fireplace, two seating areas, Russian wide plank oak floors, city and river vistas, top of the line millwork, custom architectural lighting, Savant sound and television system, and Nest controlled systems. Adjacent to the living area is a glass enclosed dining room overlooking the East River and the Northern cityscape. Convenient to the dining area is a chic wet bar with a light-up onyx stone countertop, bar sink, storage, and wine fridge.

A chef's dream, the 33 foot long Italian Boffi kitchen with Corian countertops features not one, but two of every top-of-the-line appliance. Miele and Gaggenau steal the show, including a 70-bottle wine refrigerator, freezer drawers, beverage fridge and integrated espresso/cappuccino maker. A smartly designed island features seating for 6 with brilliant North and West views through large plate glass picture windows.

Tucked away for privacy, the king-sized primary bedroom is outfitted with 6 custom designed floor to ceiling closets, magnificent views of the Chrysler and Empire State buildings, another walk in closet and a spa-like primary bath. It's adorned with Boffi Winged Collection fixtures as well as a walk-in steam shower for two, a free-standing soaking tub, double marble vanities with floating oval medicine cabinets, a separate water closet, and heated floors.

A secondary bedroom on the main floor allows for flexible use as a staff room, office, exercise space or guest accommodation with an elegant full bath. The sculptural Guggenheim-inspired staircase takes you down to two additional bedrooms with Eastern morning sunshine and views, one with its own private balcony.
This floor enjoys a separate entry and a generous laundry closet with full sized Miele washer and dryer. A decadent two person Swedish sauna sits next to a serene white marble and mosaic bathroom with double sinks, jacuzzi bathtub, separate stall shower and heated floor.

Sterling Plaza is a prestigious full-service condominium with a 24-hour doorman, live in super and laundry room. Pets are warmly welcomed. This location is extremely convenient with a plethora of delicious restaurants and grocery stores, including Whole Foods, the Dag Hammarskjold Plaza Greenmarket and Morton Williams. Please note the current owner is receiving the condo tax abatement for primary residence.

Located on a historic, charming street you are within walking distance of the United Nations, Theater District, Grand Central terminal, the East River, Fifth Avenue and Central Park. Transportation is a breeze with proximity to 6, E & M subways and the M49 and M15 buses. Just a quick ride to the FDR, LaGuardia and JFK.

* The Initial Interest Rate and Initial Principal & Interest Payment are fixed for the first and adjust every six months thereafter for the remainder of the loan term. The Interest Rate and annual percentage rate may increase after consummation. The Index for this product is the SOFR. The margin for this adjustable rate mortgage may vary with your unique credit history, and terms of your loan.

** Mortgage Rates are subject to change, loan amount and product restrictions and may not be available for your specific transaction at commitment or closing. Rates, and the margin for adjustable rate mortgages [if applicable], are subject to change without prior notice.

The rates and APR will vary depending upon your unique credit history and the terms of your loan, e.g. the actual down payment percentages, points and fees for your transaction. Property taxes and homeowner's insurance are estimates and subject to change.  The Total Monthly Payment does not include the estimated HOA/Common Charge payment.
