5 NYC penthouses for sale if you want more privacy and space
Privacy and outdoor space became even more precious during the pandemic, and New York City’s penthouses offer those desirable features in abundance. If you’re on the hunt for a new place, you may want to consider starting your search at the top—of the building, that is.
Luxury buyers also like penthouses for their panoramic views, high ceilings and larger square footage. Living on a top floor also typically means more natural light—a boost for your mood and mental health.
Of course, there are some downsides to living in a penthouse. Owners may have to deal with leaks from the roof or outdoor space—something happened when the city was lashed by the remnants of Hurricane Ida. And you should also consider things like how long you’re willing to wait for an elevator. (Here are more pros and cons of buying a penthouse).
