Listing Notes

A Townhouse in the Sky Townhouse living, reimagined-this three-story, 6, 630-square-foot penthouse with a breathtaking private rooftop terrace crowns the top of 78 Irving Place, an ultra-exclusive, landmarked condominium in the Gramercy Park Historic District. Designed by renowned architect Pietro Cicognani, this architectural tour de force offers total privacy, triple exposures, and soaring views over block beautiful and Gramercy Park.

The corner great room features a bespoke stone fireplace and custom butler's bar-ideal for refined entertaining. Adjacent, a formal dining room, plush media lounge, and discreet powder room complete the scene. The windowed, eat-in chef's kitchen is outfitted with a custom Lacanche range, a handcrafted Ann-Morris pot rack, and top-tier appliances by Gaggenau, Miele, and Thermador.
