A Rare Private Oasis Overlooking Central Park
An extraordinary and truly one-of-a-kind penthouse duplex, this exceptional Upper East Side residence offers the rare luxury of a private country retreat in the heart of Manhattan. With a view of Central Park, sophisticated interiors, and an extraordinary two-level roof garden, it is quite literally a slice of Water Mill in the sky.
Gut renovated with an exacting eye for design and craftsmanship, the residence features an expansive open living and entertaining space with custom white oak millwork, beautifully finished white oak floors, and a dramatic working poured-concrete fireplace. A bespoke kitchen combines refined design with exceptional functionality, featuring Bertazzoni and Bosch appliances, Ann Sacks tile, and Caesarstone surfaces.
A sun-filled garden room currently configured as a private gym offers an additional flexible living space and a seamless connection to the outdoors.
The upper level offers a generous open office, library, and two bedrooms, each with an en-suite bath. Throughout, the residence is distinguished by custom craftsmanship and elevated finishes, including Waterworks Studio fixtures, Kohler and Toto fixtures, and Caesarstone bath surfaces.
The private roof garden is the defining feature of this remarkable home. Spanning two levels and overlooking Central Park, the meticulously landscaped oasis is framed by Ipe (Brazilian walnut), porcelain pavers, espaliered fruit trees, hydrangeas, lavender, ivy, and an extraordinary 35-year-old wisteria. The result is an exceptionally rare sense of privacy, tranquillity, and indoor-outdoor living in Manhattan.
A charming cedar-shingled garden studio, complete with its own heating and air conditioning, provides an inspiring space for an artist's studio, private office, or creative retreat.
Rarely does a Manhattan residence offer this combination of scale, design, privacy, and extraordinary outdoor space. Set on coveted East 75th Street just moments from Central Park, this is a truly exceptional urban sanctuary-an estate-like retreat above the city.
