Residence 39C - Metropolitan Tower, 146 West 57th Street

$1,495,000 1 Bed 1.5 Baths 1,094 Sq Ft

Rarely available and intelligently priced, Residence 39C is a sprawling 1,094-square-foot home at Metropolitan Tower - the largest one-bedroom line in the building, with a layout that lives like two.

A gracious wood-paneled entry opens to an oversized living and dining area wrapped in floor-to-ceiling windows, where skyline views and natural light take over. The generous living space converts easily to a second bedroom or guest suite - or serves as a library, den, or work-from-home office - while the open kitchen, equipped with a dishwasher and ample workspace, is designed for both daily living and entertaining. The primary bedroom is a quiet retreat with city views, and the home offers a full bath plus a powder room, two-zone air controlled by the residents, not the building.

Offered at $1,367 per square foot - below Metropolitan Tower's recent one-bedroom median - 39C is an exceptional value on Billionaires' Row for a primary residence, pied-à-terre (pied-à-terre permitted), or investment.

Metropolitan Tower is a white-glove, full-service condominium next door to Carnegie Hall and two blocks from Central Park: 24-hour doorman and concierge, the residents-only Club Metropolitan restaurant with complimentary breakfast and room service, a fitness center, the 30th-floor glass-enclosed 20'x40' swimming pool, sauna and steam rooms, massage and training services, roof deck, attended garage with chauffeurs' waiting area, maid and valet services, bike room and storage. Columbus Circle, Lincoln Center, the Theater District, and the Fifth and Madison Avenue shops are all moments away.
