Elevated above the city in one of Manhattan's most desirable enclaves, this stunning duplex penthouse offers a rare blend of luxury, natural light, and iconic views. Perched high atop 418 East 59th Street, this 2,100 sq ft residence showcases breathtaking panoramas of the East River and Manhattan skyline, including direct views of the Empire State Building and Chrysler Building, creating a tranquil and inspiring atmosphere throughout the day.
Enter through a welcoming foyer into an expansive, sun-filled layout that includes a generous living room, elegant dining area, and a windowed kitchen, which allow for both entertaining and everyday living.
The home features three spacious bedrooms and three full bathrooms. The primary suite serves as a private sanctuary, offering ample closet space and a windowed en-suite bath with double sinks, all bathed in soft, natural light. The two additional bedrooms enjoy sweeping city and river views and each have a designated bathroom.
A custom-designed Lucite and wood curved staircase leads to the upper level, where a dramatic, windowed great room opens onto two private outdoor terraces totaling approximately 350 sq ft. With electric and water connections, these terraces are wonderful for relaxing, entertaining, or creating your own rooftop garden, all while enjoying breathtaking views of the skyline, river, and city landmarks.
Just off the upper level is access to a private, approximately 200 sq ft storage room that elevates the functionality of this home even further. Outfitted with four closets, including a generous cedar closet, this flexible space can easily be transformed into a home office, gym, creative studio, or serve as exceptionally large storage room.
Additional features include an in-unit washer and dryer, hardwood floors throughout, and all the benefits of a well-maintained, full-service building.
A truly rare offering, this penthouse combines scale, light and outdoor living in a location that's both vibrant and convenient, just moments from Midtown, the East River Esplanade, and some of the city's best dining and shopping.
