Perched atop Ariel East, this sprawling duplex penthouse offers four bedrooms, three-and-one-half bathrooms, private outdoor space, and breathtaking Central Park, Hudson River, and city skyline views in every direction. Floor-to-ceiling windows and four exposures frame a truly cinematic panorama spanning from the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge and World Trade Center to the Hudson River, George Washington Bridge, Central Park and the Reservoir, and east to the Throgs Neck Bridge - with sightlines reaching across all five boroughs.
Key-locked elevator access opens directly into a dramatic double-height gallery, immediately establishing the home's remarkable scale and privacy. Designed for grand entertaining and effortless everyday living, the expansive lower level unfolds through a series of light-filled spaces.
Stretching more than 31 feet, the living room is wrapped in windows, with unobstructed eastern, southern and western exposures. A gas fireplace and custom bar anchor the space, while the private terrace creates a seamless indoor-outdoor setting for morning coffee, sunset cocktails, or simply taking in the Hudson River views.
On the northern side of the lower level, a generously sized dining room flows into an expansive windowed kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, extensive counter space, a substantial center island, wine storage, a six-burner gas range, and top-of-the-line integrated appliances. The adjoining den offers custom built-ins and unobstructed Central Park views. A powder room completes the lower level.
A sculptural floating staircase leads to the private bedroom level. The expansive primary suite enjoys eastern and southern views, excellent closet space, and a serene en-suite bathroom with dual vanities, a glass-enclosed shower, and a deep soaking tub. A second bedroom features an en-suite bath, while two additional bedrooms share a third full bathroom. A large laundry room with a side-by-side washer and dryer offers space for two additional machines.
The home also features hardwood floors, high ceilings, custom lighting, central heating and air conditioning, abundant storage, and exceptional natural light throughout.
