Spanning 2,566 interior square feet, the residence is defined by what is increasingly difficult to find in Manhattan: extraordinary proportions, open views from every room, tremendous natural light, and a seamless connection between substantial interior and exterior living space.
At the heart of the home is an expansive living and dining area framed by more than 30 feet of north-facing windows and anchored by a stone fireplace. Directly off the great room, an exceptionally large terrace with an outdoor kitchen becomes a true extension of the living space, offering sweeping 180-degree Midtown skyline views and remarkable scale for outdoor dining, entertaining, and lounging.
The oversized open kitchen is designed to match the proportions of the home, with a substantial entertaining peninsula, custom BOTTEGA cabinetry, Taj Mahal quartzite surfaces, and fully integrated Miele appliances.
The bedroom wing occupies the quiet south side of the penthouse, creating separation and privacy from the entertaining spaces. The southeast-corner primary suite features open exposures, a private balcony, an oversized walk-in dressing room, and a five-piece marble bath. At the opposite end, the southwest bedroom enjoys its own en-suite bath and private terrace-an exceptionally rare feature that creates a second intimate outdoor retreat.
Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, powder room, and an oversized dedicated laundry and utility room complete a layout that feels unusually generous throughout.
Additional details include 9'7" ceilings, oversized high-performance windows, 8-inch white oak flooring, multi-zone HVAC, radiant-heated primary bathroom floors, smart-home pre-wiring, and Miele washer and dryer.
With the privacy of a full floor, four true bedrooms, open skyline exposures, three distinct terraces, nearly 1,000 square feet outdoors, and an extraordinary indoor-outdoor great room, PH7 offers a combination of scale and privacy that is exceptionally difficult to replicate in Manhattan.

Quick Profile
Turtle Bay is best known for hosting the world’s dignitaries at United Nations once a year as the world institution sits on the eastern edge of the neighborhood along the East River.
But this midtown location offers a lot more, a bustling neighborhood teeming with high-rise apartment buildings and an easy walk to the Midtown business district.
Over the past two decades, developers have assembled almost every corner development site along Second Avenue and have built straight up. Not much left to assemble.
Some of the more glamorous, and of course most expensive, addresses are in close proximity to the United Nations. Trump World Tower, which caused a big stir with area residents, in particular, Walter Cronkite, when it was built sits just north of the United Nations Grounds.
In contrast to the proliferation of the residential highrise, Turtle Bay does have some lovely tree-lined streets between the avenues. In particular, Turtle Bay Gardens, which fronts both 48th Street and 49th Street between Third and Second Avenue has always been a haven for the rich and famous.
