MASTERPIECE IN THE SKY
Immersed in natural light like no other home, this stunning glass roof penthouse possesses spectacular floor-to-ceiling windows that provide unrivaled views of the city skyline. Perched atop the iconic 40 Mercer Condominium, this luxury three-bedroom, three-bathroom space in sought-after SoHo has a primary suite occupying the entire upper floor. Conceived as a deconstructed cube, the building-within-a-building fuses the cutting-edge vision of renowned American hotelier Andre Balazs and famed French architect Jean Nouvel. Brought to life by architects SheltonMindel, this bespoke, opulent home contains an aluminum-clad kitchen on the lower level with a mezzanine wood-lined office above that both bask below the awe-inspiring glass ceiling. The south-facing glass curtain wall opens completely to transform the living room into an outdoor loggia, while a private 145 square foot east-facing terrace by the dining area adds further prestige. Featured in Architectural Digest, this award-winning 3,515 square foot residence is a living work of art with elements inspired by the painting of Piet Mondrian. To complement its remarkable style, the penthouse, accessed via secure elevator, boasts innovative substance too. Its thoughtful design means the home is customized with 12 zones for cooling and heating. The advanced Lutron window treatment controls are set to optimize sunlight throughout different times of day, and UV protection on all windows enhances the comfort and energy efficiency of this smart home. Bulthaup kitchen is fully equipped with Gaggenau, Miele and Subzero appliances, while the bathrooms have heated Terrazzo floors. Richly appointed walnut millwork and Corian abound throughout the home. This progressively designed and ingeniously engineered penthouse is located in prime SoHo on a cobblestone block. The building features a swimming pool, sauna, whirlpool, fitness center spa, separate parking garage accessible from the basement, tree-covered courtyard off the lobby and a beautifully landscaped outdoor terrace.
