Elevated Elegance with Unrivaled Views!
Perched atop the 46th and 47th floors of The Capri, Penthouse B is a spectacular duplex residence offering cinematic, unobstructed views of Central Park and the Midtown skyline (both north and south, and west) with the iconic Chrysler Building, 59th Street Bridge and One Vanderbilt, the Upper East Side, and the skylines of Long Island City and Brooklyn. With approximately 1,600 square feet of beautifully renovated interior space and a spacious private terrace, this one-of-a-kind home is a rare offering in one of Manhattan’s most exclusive neighborhoods.
A grand entry opens into a dramatic double-height living and dining area, featuring 20-foot ceilings, and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that showcase sweeping views of the Midtown skyline and Central Park. Designed for both scale and sophistication, this light-filled entertaining space offers an extraordinary vantage point above the city.
The adjacent windowed chef’s kitchen is outfitted with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and a full suite of professional-grade Thermador appliances, including a 5-burner cooktop, wall oven, integrated refrigerator, and dishwasher—all in stainless steel finishes. A stylish, marble-appointed full bath and three generous closets complete the main floor, and beautiful wooden floor throughout the whole residence.
Upstairs, two serene bedrooms and two full bathrooms await. The primary suite boasts a custom walk-in closet and a spa-like marble bath with double vanities and a glass-enclosed shower. The secondary bedroom is bright and spacious, with access to a full bathroom and sweeping views of the Upper East Side, the 59th Street Bridge, Long Island City, and Brooklyn. A stackable Bosch washer/dryer is conveniently located on this level.
Step outside to your private 200-square-foot terrace—a true outdoor oasis in the sky—perfectly positioned to take in dramatic cityscapes, from the vibrant architecture of the Midtown skyline, and across the shimmering East River toward Queens and Brooklyn.
