Description

THE OPEN HOUSE IS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. Rarely available top floor corner Penthouse with high ceilings & unobstructed panoramic views. This renovated home has 12 large windows with north and west exposure. “Penthouse G” (PHG) has taller 9’5 ft ceilings than the lower floors. Thanks to having no neighbors above, and with only 3 other apartments on the floor, this is a very quiet residence. The gut renovation was completed in 2019, it included a new kitchen, new bathrooms (PHG has 1.5 bathrooms), new flooring, electrical, all new HVAC units, ample closet space and more. The windows have custom, automated window treatments, important for a home with this much sunlight. The windowed kitchen has an induction range, a new extended island with Cambria quartz countertops, a built-in wine refrigerator and additional storage. Cable and internet are included in your monthly maintenance. Note: a shower can be added to the powder room with board approval. The flexible corner layout allows for a guest bedroom or an incredible home office. This is one of the ‘best rooms’ in the house because of the corner views and five windows. Or leave it wide open; and have a loft like living space with incredible views (see alternate floor plan). This flexibility allows for customization based on your needs, enhancing both the functionality and appeal of the space. PHG offers breathtaking skyline views from every room, presenting a spectacular panorama that includes the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building, Hudson Yards, and One Vanderbilt, among others. The vistas provide a constantly inspiring backdrop that enhances the living experience in this top-tier urban space. The Empire State Building, in particular, stands out as a majestic presence, dominating the skyline with its stunning architecture and dynamic lighting. This view is not merely a backdrop but a prominent feature of the home, offering residents a daily connection to one of the most celebrated landmarks in the world. The inclusion of other iconic buildings enhances the richness of the view, creating a diverse and visually dynamic urban landscape. Positioned on the top floor of the north tower, PHG offers an unmatched advantage: it is closer to the rooftop lounge than any other apartment in the building. Residents of PHG enjoy the unique privilege of accessing the rooftop directly via just one flight of stairs—no need for an elevator. This exclusive proximity allows for effortless enjoyment of the rooftop’s panoramic views and amenities, offering unparalleled ease and privacy for everything from morning coffees to sunset gatherings. Whether for morning workouts, evening relaxation, or entertaining guests, this direct access makes PHG an even more desirable choice in urban living. Located at East 36th St and Lexington Ave, the Carlton Regency is a convenient location to Midtown and Grand Central Station. It is also a short ride to downtown Manhattan, about 10 blocks to Madison Square Park, 15 blocks to Gramercy Park and 20 blocks to the Village. Easy access to Brooklyn and Queens via the Midtown Tunnel nearby and the NYC Ferry at 36th street and the East River. Tunnel access is convenient for weekend getaways to Long Island beaches and the Hamptons. This penthouse is indeed a rare find in this price range, combining luxury living with exceptional views and a prime location, making it a potentially perfect choice for someone looking for a top-tier urban living space. Amenities include a large gym, rooftop, garden courtyard, full-time resident manager, 24 hour doorman, storage units, and full-time concierge. Co-purchasers and pied-a-terres allowed.
