A townhouse in Manhattan is a covetable real estate purchase. These multi-story dwellings became synonymous with an elite lifestyle and developers today are elevating the best features of townhouses – expansive living areas and unparalleled privacy – and recreating them in the form of sky-high duplex penthouses. These penthouse-level homes offer a living experience that’s even more exclusive than in a townhouse with the added benefits of having panoramic skyline views and a suite of luxurious services and amenities.

 

Take a look at the best duplex penthouses throughout Manhattan that take townhouse living to the next level.

 

200 East 83rd, one of the top-selling residential buildings in Upper East Side history, has broken a Third Avenue sales record with the $27 million deal for Penthouse A in November. The tower is home to the most exclusive residence Penthouse C (https://streeteasy.com/building/200-east-83rd-street-new_york/phc) that has recently hit the market asking $32.5 million.

 

The duplex home is perched high above the city and occupies the top two floors of the 35-story condo tower. This incredibly rare 6-bed, 6.5 bath residence spans 6,592 square feet of luxurious interior space in addition to 1,864 square feet of exterior space spread across four large private terraces, including a one-of-a-kind dining terrace with arched stonework framing spectacular exposures of Central Park, the East River, Midtown and the Upper East Side. The penthouse’s owners will have access to a suite of coveted amenities and conveniences such as a 70-foot pool in the sky and automated onsite parking complemented by a vaulted porte-cochere allowing for total privacy.
