Property Description for 53 West 53rd Street, PH-76

HONORED HOST OF THE ELLE DECOR PENTHOUSE AT 53 WEST 53 BY FOX-NAHEM

Comprising the entire 76th and 77th floors for an impressive 7,973 square feet, Penthouse 76 stands out atop Jean Nouvel's iconic crystalline tower, 53 West 53. The penthouse offers four bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, a private interior elevator, a dedicated service entrance, and north-, south-, east-, and west-facing exposures that span Central Park, the Hudson and East Rivers, Downtown and beyond. Gracious proportions, magnificent details, and ceilings up to approximately 22' set the stage for world-renowned designer Thierry Despont's masterfully conceived interior architecture. Bespoke detailing typically reserved for privately commissioned homes and a rich yet soft palette of museum-quality finishes imbue each space.

Direct entry into the private foyer offers a double exposure of Central Park to the north and Downtown Manhattan to the south. A dramatic great room featuring soaring double-height ceilings is designed with the entertainer in mind complete with a gas limestone-clad fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows framing sweeping 180-degree views. An airy gallery leads to the corner formal dining room, which flows into the windowed custom kitchen by Thierry Despont for Molteni. Polished statuary marble countertops and a back-lit statuary marble backsplash complement back-painted glass cabinetry with polished nickel detailing, Dornbracht fixtures, and an extensive suite of appliances by Miele and Sub-Zero. A spectacular 30' x 15' south-facing lounge, offering wide-open vistas of Downtown Manhattan and iconic city landmarks, is complete with a custom built-in bar by Scavolini. This room may also function as a bedroom. A private secondary bedroom is the ideal guest suite with eastern and southern exposures and a windowed en-suite bathroom.

On the 77th floor, the approximately 1,300-square-foot primary bedroom suite offers panoramic views of Central Park and iconic city views to the north and east. The en-suite bathroom features two separate vanities with custom Thierry Despont-designed polished nickel automated mirrors, a cast iron Lefroy Brooks soaking tub, freestanding steam shower, private water closet with commode and bidet, and a linen closet. The space is elegantly appointed with radiant heated floors, polished Noir St. Laurent marble, high-honed Verona limestone, polished Persian golden travertine and Dornbracht fixtures, with dramatic skyline and river vistas. Completing the primary suite is a custom Scavolini-designed dressing room.An additional bedroom on this level offers south-facing Downtown city views and a windowed west-facing en-suite bath as well as a Scavolini-designed closet. The final room on the upper level is a separate den/media room that overlooks the great room below. Completing the upper level is a discreet service corridor with extensive storage and a private service entrance.

No detail has been overlooked, from the custom interior lighting design to the motorized Lutron solar shades and additional blackout shades in each bedroom, and the supply of humidified and filtered fresh air throughout.

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.
