The Astor historic condo lists 4,805 s/f
Penthouse Two at $13.95m

Manhattan, NY The Astor, the historic Upper West Side condo originally built by the legendary Astor family in 1901, officially listed Penthouse Two: a modern addition crowning the building, on the market for $13.95 million. 

Penthouse Two is a duplex spanning 4,805 s/f with five bedrooms and seven baths. There’s more than 1,700 s/f of private outdoor space — one of the largest offerings on the Upper West Side — including a wraparound terrace accessed via the triple-exposure great room with gas fireplace and a separate private terrace from the primary suite. Interiors have been designed by Pembrooke & Ives, who redesigned The Astor’s existing units, and nod to the building’s pre-war history with custom moldings and herringbone-patterned floors, plus modern gas fireplaces. Additional features include a grand entry foyer, private interior elevator, windowed den/study and windowed, eat-in kitchen.

The other penthouse will be listed and the third penthouse sold last summer before being publicly listed.
