Property Description for 167 East 61st Street, PH-A

PENTHOUSE PERFECT w/EPIC CITY VIEWS (Former Home of DICK CLARK)

FRESHLY RENOVATED, JAW-DROPPING, FIVE-DIAMOND, BI-LEVEL MASTERPIECE

DIVINE, CORNER, DESIGNER STUNNER w/TWO PRIVATE, CORNER BALCONIES

(CAN BE PURCHASED FURNISHED IF DESIRED)

PIED A TERRES, PETS & SUBLETTING WELCOME

IT STARTS WITH THE VIEW: Floating high above one of NYC's most convenient, world class locations — at the most perfect penthouse level — are two open exposures with epic, postcard views East and South. Sunshine days and moonbeam nights enliven the big sky, big city vistas from every floor-to-ceiling window -- and both private terraces -- of this brand new, completely re-designed, fully renovated condominium masterpiece. Stunningly enrobed by some of NYC’s best city views, this stretch-out, highly livable, comfortable, designer home gives you a front row seat to extraordinary epic vistas: You experience world-class cityscapes downtown, and you enjoy some of the East River, and so, so much more.

SPACE GALORE: Smartly designed for ease of living, this rare, bi-level beauty was created on the coveted 38th and 39th floors of its famously well-run building. A double-corner, double-level custom home, this smart residence is comfortably scaled, expertly crafted, and well planned -- offering a big, open-plan living/dining great room (with access to one of the two private balconies), a stupendous eat-in cook's kitchen, a sit-down bar, a gallery hall, a handsome powder room, and a dual-sided gas fireplace,

KITCHEN: Rarely is form and function so beautifully paired as it is in this trophy residence. The design of the kitchen -- with its stone counters, ample custom cabinetry, suite of appliances (by Wolfe and Subzero), gas cooktop, and top-shelf fixtures -- is a marvelous marriage of pretty and practical. Served by a dining bar and an en suite dining area with dramatic city views, this curated culinary dream space has it all.

BEDROOMS & BATHS: Down the easy, dramatic stairs are the bedroom suites. Big, bright, and beautiful, these rooms — like the rest of this impressive residence — are large, and luxe, and enveloped by this home's signature epic views. The corner primary bedroom suite offers open vistas South and East, amole custom closets, a bonus en suite den, and its own private, corner balcony. Its ensuite marble bath enjoys custom cabinetry, stone floors, dual sinks with dual Famtimi faucets, and a separate jumbo shower. Both guest bedroom suites are well-scaled with good custom closets, and wonderful Eastern views — one with a full en suite bath, and the other served by a full hall bath. With a bonus, full laundry room with service entry, and with a bonus office/play space by the stairs, the lower level is bright, peaceful, and glorious.

HEAVENLY DESIGN: Every millimeter of this large, luxe home has been carefully considered and beautifully implemented. Custom lighting, custom millwork, a hidden bar, a hidden safe, heated bathroom floors, integrated AV system, electric blinds, wide, White Oak planks throughout, and top-tier fixtures serve to launch this custom home into its own gorgeous, designer orbit.

BUILDING & NEIGHBORHOOD: Supremely situated in its famously well-run, well-served, seasoned building with redone gym, dual entrances, bike/storage rooms, waterfall entry, private garden, and garage, this dream penthouse enjoys impeccable service from a friendly staff, and a resident manager. With an elegant location, whose conveniences come with bragging rights, this resplendent residence enjoys prime access to every area shopping, dining, cultural, culinary and fitness destination -- not to mention a plethora of easy transportation options.

High above it all, with an elevated design and wonderful walls of windows onto the glorious world beyond, a comfortable and special -- beyond beautiful -- penthouse home awaits you.

Upper East Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.

With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.

Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .

There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.

Bold Reminder of Tribeca’s Past – 66 Leonard Street

The Textile Building at 66 Leonard Street sits prominently on the southeast corner of Leonard Street and Church Street, a bold reminder of Tribeca past.  Across the street, ever-looming over this turn-of-the-century limestone edifice, is the Jenga-like skyscraper, 56 Leonard Street, a marvel of modern engineering and a must-see on any downtown attraction list.  I...
