Two additional bedrooms, each with en-suite windowed baths, complete this level. In addition to the residence's private terraces, Penthouse A enjoys the exclusive use of a private rooftop terrace, accessed via the building's common stairway, offering an additional outdoor retreat above the city. The Building: The Claremont House is a boutique, pet-friendly white-glove condominium offering 24-hour doorman service in one of Manhattan's most coveted residential enclaves, moments from Central Park, Madison Avenue boutiques, fine dining, museums, and cultural institutions.
