FRONT ROW PREMIUM "HOUSE SEAT" OVERLOOKING LINCOLN CENTER RENOVATED MOVE-IN READY PENTHOUSE w/BIG BALCONY w/EPIC SKYLINE & RIVER VIEWS IN 3 DIRECTIONS OVERSCALED ROOMS - NEW COOK'S KITCHEN - 2 NEW BATHS - BONUS FLEX DEN/OFFICE The door opens, ushering you through a welcoming gallery hall. Underfoot are new wide-plank hardwoods, above you soar the building's highest ceilings, and everywhere you look there is big, bright, renovated beauty. Floating high above it all, you are comforted and refreshed by the impressively scaled, smartly redone, coveted Penthouse -- a home in the sky with big skyline and river views, and a rare, front-row seat overlooking iconic Lincoln Center. You exhale in the immense, bright living room, with its multiple seating areas and open-plan dining room. You enjoy the dramatic vistas through the heart-warming bay window, but nothing prepares you for the views that envelop you from three sun-filled directions. You sit at the al fresco dining table -- on the prized private balcony -- and scan the skies around you, envisioning evening sunset cocktails and peaceful morning coffees. Here is your world class perch -- overlooking the world's most treasured Lincoln Center stages backdropped by one of the most cinematic skylines you can find. From here you see a glimpse of the GW Bridge to the North, and a distant peek of Lady Liberty down in the harbor. The heroic vistas -- from bridge to statue -- are postcard perfect, extraordinary, magical. You peel yourself away from the beautiful balcony and amble through the newly done cook's kitchen -- with its ample cabinetry and counter space, and premium appliances by Wolf, Subzero, Thermidor and Bosch. You notice this home's big outfitted closets, the freshly finished, designer half bath off of the gallery/hall, and the central AC with 3 zones on the Nest system. You discover the bonus area -- the special space that affords you a flexible bit of extra that serves your life's growing needs. With more Western sunshine and open views from its big windows, you find the enormous primary suite far larger than you expected. Sitting in its lounging area, you note the peace and comfort of this king-sized bedroom. With an impressive step-in, well designed closet, and its newly renovated, en suite bath (with top-shelf fixtures and details), this is surely a masterful suite. You will love that this Penthouse is the coveted cherry-on-top of its famously well served building. You will love that in-building garage (with its preferred rate for building owners) and the wonderful building driveway that allows for graceful all-season drop-offs and pick-ups. You are impressed by the seasoned, full-service staff, the full-time superintendent, and the responsive building management. The gym, the laundry room, the storage, the building's advanced cogenerator system (keeping utility costs low) and pet-friendly policy (weight restrictions apply), and are all wonderful assets, too -- not to mention internet and cable included in your monthly maintenance (and you can pursue adding a washer/dryer if desired). This reinvented and renovated penthouse -- with its stupendous and artful perch and its jaw-dropping, inspiring views -- feels like home. A perfect primary or pied-a-terre residence, this one-of-a-kind, move-in residence is a true treasure, enjoying all the benefits of its well-run building and world-class location. The trophy Lincoln Square neighborhood is proudly anchored by the Lincoln Center Campus (Metropolitan Opera, New York City Ballet, Alice Tully Hall, Jazz at Lincoln Center, Julliard...) and benefits from the Center's auxiliary security and street maintenance presence. Round the clock conveniences abound, with destination dining, shopping, cultural, educational, and entertainment all within easy reach. With a plethora of convenient transportation options, and the Hudson River Promenade and Central Park as your front and back yards, this perfect penthouse opportunity is a winsome s
