A two-story penthouse perched atop the tallest building on Manhattan ’s Upper East Side has hit the market, and it’s asking a sky-high $65 million . Within the lofty, 850-foot-tall Sutton Tower at 430 East 58th Street, the palatial Penthouse 80 comes with five bedrooms and six full bathrooms designed by New York City -based starchitect Thomas Juul-Hansen—also behind the Rosewood Residences Beverly Hills . Interestingly, the limestone-clad skyscraper marks a first for the award-winning Danish designer, and the development itself is a modern homage to the neighborhood’s opulent Gilded Age history.
“The building is at this crossroads of the Upper East Side and Midtown—and it’s a rarity here in this location,” Elizabeth Unger, senior sales director of Sutton Tower, told The New York Post . “It gives the lifestyle of a luxury building, but in this enclave one block from the waterfront. It’s the first of its kind and the last of its kind.
” The duplex apartment measures roughly 9,200 square feet with five bedrooms and six bathrooms. It also comes with a dramatic double-height outdoor loggia with sweeping, 360-degree views that stretch from the Atlantic Ocean to Central Park, the Hudson River, the Empire State Building, and beyond. With direct elevator access to the home, you’re welcomed into the great room, which is lined with massive windows and sports a gas fireplace and ceilings that soar upwards of 15 feet.
