This is a rare opportunity to own one of only a handful of coveted Penthouse units at the iconic Plaza Hotel & Residences, located on glamorous Central Park South. This designer dream home was completely gut renovated and reimagined by the renowned Kerry Joyce in 2014, and makes a stunning statement of elegance at the epicenter of Manhattan. Every luxurious detail of the expansive, meticulously-appointed 2 bedroom 2 bathroom interior has been thoughtfully considered. From the solid oak flooring, mahogany walls, linen wall paper and custom moldings, to the hidden revolving television above the custom marble mantle, not a sponsor finish was left in this spectacularly recreated residence. New lighting, wiring and an integrated sound system throughout are among the state-of-the-art upgrades. Oversized windows to the east, south and west receive an inpouring of natural light all day long. Enter the gracious home via a large foyer that can also serve as a formal dining room, enriched by 4 distinctive mahogany walls. Beyond is a generously-sized living room featuring built-ins, a decorative fireplace, and glass doors to a lovely French balcony. The gourmet kitchen adorned with Petit granite marble countertops will inspire your culinary side. The master bedroom is a divine retreat with windows on east/west exposures, glass doors to a French balcony facing south, custom walk-in closets and a luxe en-suite master bath. Partial side views of Central Park are showcased from the master bedroom and master bath. The second bedroom is graced by stylish oak ceruse walls. Both full baths are elegant and spa-like, one with faux wood inlay wall paneling, marble mosaic floors likening those of St. Mark's Cathedral, and a concealed custom stall shower. A laundry room completes the comfort.

Midtown West | Manhattan

Quick Profile

People, yellow cabs, bright lights, big crowds, 24-hour eateries and just about every type of store imaginable. it’s a frenetic buzz that only a few places on the globe can offer. And that’s just one part of it. Midtown West is the birthplace of hustle and bustle and it’s bordered by 42nd to the south, 59th Street to the north, 8th Avenue to the west, and 5th Avenue to the east. 

Midtown West is not as residential as other neighborhoods in Manhattan. The bustling part of Midtown West is 42nd Street between Times Square and 8th Avenues where the retail and office space, theatres, and attractions are. No matter what time of day it is, you'll always find activity there. 

Residential buildings lay near the western end of Midtown West beginning around 8th Avenue. 

Location, location, location. Of all the neighborhoods and enclaves of Manhattan, Midtown West is perhaps the most commutable place to live, visit, or work. It contains one of the highest concentrations of subway lines in the Big Apple. A, C, E, N, Q, R, 1, 2, 3, and the 7 train. The transit system feeds the streets with commuters from everywhere. The Port Authority Bus Terminal and nearby Penn Station adds to the number of people that flood Midtown on any given day. 

It’s one of the easiest places in all of Manhattan to navigate because it’s a true grid. Uptown, street numbers go up. Downtown, street numbers go down. It’s the same concept from east to west. You really can’t get lost in Midtown West.
