Private townhouse in the Sky. The Penthouse residence at 27 East 79th Street has been meticulously appointed by Parisian design firm Alberto Pinto. This duplex penthouse has been custom designed and now offers 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and open southern views over the landmarked mansions of the historic Cook Block and view of Central Park. Alberto Pinto hand-selected a range of opulent materials for the interior as well as the building's elegantly appointed lobby and the Parisian-inspired fa ade. A signature glass and wrought iron-domed marquee welcomes residents into the 24-hour attended lobby adorned with French limestone tiles and Noir Saint Laurent marble flooring. Direct elevator entry into the residence ensures utmost privacy and convenience. Custom mouldings, ceiling cornices, and white oak parquet de Versailles flooring are used throughout the residence's luxe interior. Bathrooms feature a blend of Estremoz, Calacatta Vagli, and Emperador Fonce marble slab and tiling, with polished nickel Kallista Vir Stil fixtures, custom cabinetry and vanities outfitted with parchment and lacquer or Movingui wood. The European kitchen boasts custom-cerused brushed oak cabinetry designed by Pinto, French range by La Cornue, Cremo Delicato marble countertops and backsplashes, and appliances by Miele and Sub Zero.
