A Full-Floor Penthouse Masterpiece with 360° Panoramic Views Perched atop The Metropolitan-a Pritzker Prize-winning Philip Johnson masterpiece-this extraordinary four-bedroom full-floor penthouse offers unparalleled 360-degree panoramas of Central Park, the East and Hudson Rivers, and the iconic Midtown skyline. Featuring over 3,500 sq. ft. of meticulously crafted interiors and 11-foot ceilings, this turnkey residence underwent a comprehensive renovation, ensuring every detail reflects exceptional quality and contemporary luxury. No matter which room you are in, the apartment is soaked in light from the nearly full-floor windows in every room, creating an atmosphere of warmth and brilliance. From the keyed elevator, arrive to an inviting private foyer and gallery that lead into an expansive corner living room, where 8 signature curved windows frame sweeping views and flood the space with natural light. Low-energy AC zones and automated shades contribute to a serene environment. The flooring is finished in a sleek epoxy white.

Four generously proportioned bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, each appointed with powered sheer/blackout window treatments and outfitted with California Closets, ensure everyone's comfort. Beneath the bedroom carpets lie oak floors, adding warmth and versatility. The primary suite is a tranquil sanctuary that rivals the size of a grand living room. Equipped with a dedicated low-energy AC zone, and extensive closet space (three closets, including a walk-in), this retreat caters to ultimate comfort. Adjoining is the windowed primary bath, which is a private wellness haven featuring a steam shower, an infinity soaking tub, radiant-heated Azul Cielo marble floors and walls, and a separate vanity desk. Each additional bedroom has its own ensuite marble bath with shower/tub combinations, ensuring family and guests enjoy luxurious pampering in total comfort. A dedicated laundry room includes Whirlpool washer and vented dryer for convenience. The home's smart infrastructure includes automated shades, a Crestron system, and low-energy AC zones for personalized climate control.
