Normally, our eyes widen at an apartment that measures 3,455 square feet inside, but this Upper East Side penthouse offers that much space outside. It comes in the form of one massive wrap-around terrace on the main level plus a smaller terrace off the upper-level bedroom suite. If that wasn’t enough, the interior measures a whopping 4,020 square feet, including five bedrooms, a dining room that can seat 30, a massive skylight, and floor-to-ceiling glass windows wrapping around, and more. Located at 45 East 66th Street, it’s asking $12.5 million.
A private elevator landing opens into a windowed entry foyer. From there, the grand corner living room is wrapped in glass walls and has a massive skylight above. It provides access to the terrace.
The huge dining area is also wrapped in glass and overlooks the turf-covered terrace.
The eat-in kitchen, too, enjoys a wall of glass. It features solid four-inch thick marble countertops, Arclinea copper cabinetry and drawers, a vented cooktop with oven and convection oven, a pantry, and a separate breakfast area with a built-in banquette.
At the other end of this first floor, the private spaces are separated Cerused Oak pocket door. Here, there are three large bedrooms, three of which have en-suite bathrooms, as well as a media room (which has access to the terrace), another full bathroom, a laundry room with two sets of vented washer/dryers, and a work station under the cantilevered stairway.
The entire top floor is devoted to the primary bedroom suite. It begins in a seating area, on either side of which are the bedroom and bathroom. The corner bedroom has a walk-in closet and access to the terrace. The bathroom is clad in black onyx and has a private lavatory, a spacious dressing room, and another entrance to the terrace.
Other perks of the home include multi-zone central air conditioning, soundproof floors, and new windows.
