Introducing a once in a lifetime Upper West Side Penthouse – a rooftop villa wrapped with terraces, perched high above Broadway in the full-service Opera building. This magnificent penthouse has the appearance of a large upscale farmhouse in the sky with slanted roofs and a red Spanish tiled roof. The penthouse boasts a sprawling, loft-like floor plan that spans an entire level, offering breathtaking panoramic views in every direction. The unobstructed 360 degree views of Central Park, the Hudson River, the Midtown skyline and the George Washington Bridge are simply stunning and can be enjoyed from every window and multiple terraces throughout the apartment.

Upon entering the apartment, a vaulted 16 ft. white-washed cedar ceiling greets you, soaring above the expansive open living, dining and kitchen area. The open concept kitchen flows seamlessly into the great room which features a stone-clad wood-burning fireplace and spectacular views. Natural light fills the room, emanating from the south, north and west facing windows as well as the corridor of skylights leading to the eastern wing of the apartment. Adjacent to the living area is a temperature-controlled solarium with built-in storage and seating, offering additional dining and entertainment space. With access to multiple terraces off the great room, there is no shortage of space to take in the stunning views of the iconic skyline and the sunsets over the Hudson River.

The penthouse features five bedrooms and four bathrooms that are set back away from the great room which allow for peace and privacy. The eastern wing of the apartment consists of four bedrooms including the primary suite. The primary bedroom boasts Central Park views, direct terrace access, a wood-burning fireplace, two walk-in closets as well as an ensuite bathroom. The bathroom has a spa-like ambiance equipped with both a shower and a soaking tub, both of which offer serene views of the Hudson River. Just outside of the bedroom is a staircase leading to the skylit office space perfect for working from home. There are also three additional bedrooms in the eastern portion of the apartment, two more versatile loft spaces and a separate laundry room. In the western wing of the apartment you will find a beautifully renovated loft-like bedroom with sweeping river views. The tranquil bedroom features double-height windows, a remodeled full bathroom with heated floors, walk-in closet and an additional bonus loft space.

The Opera building features neo-Gothic style architecture that was originally built as a church and later developed into the Manhattan Towers hotel in 1930. In 1980, the building was converted into a 113 unit co-op and the penthouse was also built that year. The Opera is a well-run co-op offering 24-hour doorman/concierge service, a live-in resident manager, and a bike and storage room. The prime Upper West Side location is surrounded by stunning architecture and beautiful outdoor spaces, including Riverside Park and Central Park. You can enjoy the American Museum of Natural History, Children's Museum of Manhattan, and the New York Historical Society in your neighborhood. The nearby streets offer world-class dining, entertainment, and shopping destinations like Fairway, Trader Joe’s, Citarella and Zabar’s. Transportation is easily accessible with the 1/2/3/B/C trains, multiple bus lines, CitiBike stations and the Henry Hudson Parkway. Photos are virtually staged. All showings are by appointment only.
