About This Home
A RARE OPPORTUNITY - FULL FLOOR PENTHOUSE WITH 360 - DEGREE PANORAMIC VIEWS!
Whether acquired as a primary residence, pied-à-terre, or long-term investment, this property represents a blue-chip Manhattan asset - irreplaceable in scale, light, and privacy.
Perched atop the 30th floor of The Aurora Condominium, this extraordinary full-floor penthouse is a true crown jewel - a private sky residence offering breathtaking, unobstructed 360-degree views of Manhattan in every direction. Floor-to-ceiling glass walls frame the city as living art, capturing iconic landmarks from the Empire State Building and New York Life Tower to the East River and its bridges, extending downtown to One World Trade. A private keyed elevator opens directly into the residence, establishing a rare level of privacy and exclusivity reserved for only the most distinguished homes.
Designed for both grand-scale entertaining and refined daily living, the residence spans the entire floor and features three magnificent bedroom suites, a separate staff suite, and four-and-a-half marble bathrooms. The triple-exposure great room is dramatic in scale and flooded with natural light, seamlessly connecting to four private corner terraces that provide multiple vantage points over the skyline. A formal dining area and an elegant library/den enhance the home's architectural presence. The primary suite is a sanctuary unto itself, complete with its own terrace, a windowed home office, a custom walk-in closet, and a five-fixture marble bath with a deep Jacuzzi soaking tub positioned against panoramic city views. The chef's kitchen is beautifully appointed with Viking and Sub-Zero appliances, wine refrigeration, Bosch dishwasher, custom cabinetry, and generous pantry storage - equally suited for intimate dinners or catered soirées.
This penthouse represents a rare opportunity to acquire a generational Manhattan asset - a residence defined by scale, light, privacy, and architectural distinction.
