About This Property

A remarkable perspective on downtown Manhattan, this recently renovated full-floor penthouse combines dramatic architectural interiors, exceptional finishes, and an extraordinary private rooftop terrace offering sweeping panoramic skyline views. The thoughtfully executed renovation showcases soaring 13-foot ceilings, exposed steel columns, white oak flooring, and a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring Calacatta Borghini marble countertops and backsplash. With over 2,780 square feet of combined indoor and outdoor living space, including a landscaped rooftop spanning almost 1,500 square feet, the residence offers an exceptional combination of privacy, scale, and outdoor living.

A key-locked elevator opens directly into the residence, where floor-to-ceiling windows create an impressive sense of volume and light. Four exposures frame sweeping views of Manhattan's most recognizable landmarks, from One World Trade Center and the downtown skyline to the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, and Hudson Yards.

The expansive great room accommodates generous living and dining areas, with southern and western exposures and access to a private balcony. An adjacent renovated kitchen showcases custom cabinetry, striking Calacatta Borghini marble countertops and backsplash, Miele appliances, and a breakfast counter overlooking the western skyline.

Privately positioned on the opposite side of the residence, the primary suite features dramatic ceiling heights, exposed architectural beams, and open northern and eastern views toward the Empire State Building. The en-suite bathroom is appointed with large-format marble, a floating vanity, and an oversized rainfall shower. A second bedroom and full bathroom provide flexibility for guests or a home office.

Crowning the residence is a spectacular private rooftop terrace spanning almost 1,500 square feet. Thoughtfully landscaped with lush greenery and equipped with irrigation and integrated lighting, this exceptional outdoor space offers sweeping panoramic views across the Manhattan skyline. Direct elevator access makes the rooftop an effortless extension of the home, equally suited to intimate evenings and larger gatherings against the backdrop of the city.

An additional distinction is the availability of a deeded private parking space within a gated garage, offering secure entry and direct elevator access to the residence—an unusual level of privacy and convenience in downtown Manhattan. Additional features include an in-home washer and dryer and abundant storage. Building amenities include a part-time doorman, gated entrance, Butterfly video intercom system, and access to shared swimming pools.

Ideally situated at the intersection of NoHo, the East Village, and Greenwich Village, the residence is moments from the Bowery Hotel, celebrated restaurants, boutique shopping, and downtown cultural destinations, with SoHo, Washington Square Park, and multiple subway lines nearby.

Offering the privacy of full-floor living, beautifully renovated interiors, an extraordinary landscaped rooftop, and sweeping skyline views, this penthouse presents a distinctive opportunity to experience downtown Manhattan from an entirely different vantage point.

Deeded parking space available for purchase separately, with gated garage entry and direct elevator access to the residence offering an exceptional level of privacy and convenience in downtown Manhattan.

Agent's Note

From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Compass.

Almost 1,500 square feet of landscaped rooftop terrace sits at the top of this home, and the elevator opens directly onto it. It's irrigated and has integrated lighting, so it works for a quiet dinner outside as easily as a larger gathering. A terrace that size changes how a penthouse gets used.

Inside, 13-foot ceilings and exposed steel columns frame the great room, and white oak floors run through the main living space. The great room has southern and western exposures and a private balcony. South-facing windows get direct sun for about 8.5 hours on the winter solstice and about 10 hours at the equinoxes, though nearby buildings can block some of it.

The kitchen has custom cabinetry, Calacatta Borghini marble countertops and backsplash, and Miele appliances. The breakfast counter faces the western skyline, and I like that it keeps you part of the room while you cook.

The primary suite sits on the opposite side of the residence from the second bedroom and full bathroom, which gives a guest or a home office some separation. Its en-suite bath has large-format marble, a floating vanity and an oversized rainfall shower.

The building has an elevator, a roof deck, an indoor pool, a bike room, garage parking, a security gate and a security system. Bleecker St station (6, B, D, F, M) is about 5 minutes on foot, and the 4th Street Food Co-Op is about a minute away.
