The palatial duplex at 15 Central Park West that once belonged to Sting is once again for sale. Spanning 5,417 square feet, the trophy home in the Robert A.M. Stern-designed “limestone Jesus” has dizzying park views in addition to its celebrity history. As 6sqft previously reported, the rocker bought the mansion-sized condo in 2008 for $27 million and sold it for a tidy profit in 2017 for $50 million. Nearly a decade later, the penthouse is asking $45 million.
Sting and his wife, Trudie Styler, hired Lee Mindel to design the interiors. While the couple found a buyer for the home in 2017, no one actually ever moved in, according to the New York Post. The next owner will still find Sting’s “personal custom touches,” according to the paper, like the round glass fireplace in the great room.
“No one has lived there since Sting,” Douglas Elliman broker Michael Lorber, who has the listing, told the Post.
With 44 feet of Central Park frontage via oversized windows, it’s easy to see past the tranquil beige interiors. A 500-square-foot terrace extends the home’s made-for-entertaining capabilities.
The lower floor is anchored by a curving stair. A large, open living room opens onto the terrace through tall French doors. A modern two-sided fireplace divides the space into separate zones. A crimson powder room adds a splash of rock ‘ n ‘ roll energy.
As the more intimate half of the living space, a library has built-in shelving. A sleek, capable kitchen gets a second staircase for speedy access to the rooms upstairs.
On the second floor, the primary suite puts those Central Park views front and center. For convenience, there are two dressing rooms and two luxurious bathrooms, one with a private sauna.
There are two more bedrooms with en-suite baths on this floor. A large room with a bath could be a fourth bedroom or home office, served by the aforementioned second staircase. The home’s top floor can be accessed via elevator for maximum accessibility and privacy.
15 Central Park West offers residents a suite of amenities befitting its reputation. Top-tier perks include a landscaped motor court, on-site parking, a state-of-the-art fitness center, a skylit lap pool, spa facilities, a screening room, private dining and catering services, wine storage, a library, a business center, and more
