This $13.4 million Carnegie Hill home has 13 rooms and three outdoor spaces…and all of the incredible features any Park Avenue limestone townhouse should have… like a butler's pantry, a gorgeous oversized eat-in-kitchen, high ceilings and original wood mantle fireplaces.  

You have to watch what you say to New Yorkers. Tell us we can’t do something in our apartments and we’ll do it anyway when you’re not looking, like plugging too many things into one outlet (danger: electrical fire), hanging potholders directly above the stove in our way-too-tiny kitchens (danger: regular fire) and building temporary walls without the proper egress (another fire-related danger).

Wondering where to rent this summer? Depending on your pricepoint, you may want to trade in the Hamptons house for this rather amazing Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, carriage house....

This is not hyperbole: Our mouths were actually agape as we pored over the photos of this 4-bed, 3.5-bath $8.5 million Bond Street penthouse. 

Not only are there seven skylights (all electronically controlled and shaded) 14-foot ceilings, a floating glass staircase, bespoke Italian Murano glass light fixtures...but there are TWO home offices.

This East 9^th Street, garden-level, $17K per month rental has nearly 3,500 square feet, 3-beds, 2.5-baths and an incredible two-story wall of windows leading to a private courtyard just off the kitchen/dining area. 

Even if you’re trapped inside during the April showers, you can still feel like you’re enjoying the great outdoors!
