Description

IMMEDIATE OCCUPANCY Introducing the Crown Jewel of 15 West 96th Street: The Five-Bedroom Duplex Penthouse Spanning the top two floors of 15 West 96th Street, this extraordinary 4,380 SF penthouse is the only five-bedroom residence in the building, offering 360-degree exposures and breathtaking, unobstructed Central Park views. A private elevator landing and entry foyer lead to an expansive living and dining area, where oversized casement windows flood the space with natural light, accentuating the 5 ¼-inch white oak herringbone flooring throughout. A custom limestone gas fireplace serves as a striking focal point, flanked by four park-facing windows that overlook the wraparound terrace—a true outdoor oasis complete with an XO gas grill, refrigerator, and built-in speakers. The chef’s kitchen is a masterpiece, featuring Bertazzoni Master Series appliances, a Taj Mahal quartzite island with waterfall edges, and custom walnut Bilotta cabinetry that seamlessly integrates the refrigerator and dishwasher. The showpiece of the kitchen is a 55-inch Lacanche gas range, a rare and coveted feature. The fifth bedroom, located on the lower level, offers northern exposures, a spa-like en-suite bath with a soaking tub, white glossy Nano glass walls, and marble flooring. The fifth bedroom could also make for a perfect library/den as an extension of the living room. A powder room with a custom marble sink and Wolf Gordon wallpaper sits adjacent to the laundry room, which features an LG washer and vented electric dryer. A windowed staircase leads to the upper level, where three secondary bedrooms offer incredible light, generous closets, and stunning Central Park views. Two of these bedrooms feature en-suite baths—one with a soaking tub and gray marble floors, the other with a large walk-in shower. The primary suite is a sanctuary, spanning nearly 24 feet with panoramic southern, eastern, and western views. The en-suite bath is clad in Dolomite stone, featuring a freestanding soaking tub, a windowed walk-in shower, a private water closet, and a custom walnut Bilotta double vanity with a Rose Aurora marble slab and dual Rohl faucets. Additional features include Crestron home automation for lighting, shades, and entertainment, as well as a multi-zone Daikin HVAC system for ultimate comfort. Perfectly positioned off Central Park West, Fifteen offers a boutique collection of 21 luxury residences, all with private outdoor space and breathtaking views. Residents enjoy a thoughtfully curated amenity suite, including a 24-hour attended lobby, state-of-the-art fitness center, and children’s playroom. As the first new development within one block of Central Park in over a decade, Fifteen sets a new standard for exceptional Upper West Side living. The complete offering terms are available in an offering plan from Sponsor. NYS Department of Law File No. CD22-0211. Equal Housing Opportunity. Marketed by Compass Development Marketing Group.
