The Upper East Side has been suddenly blazing as luxury home sales have surged after being slumped by the pandemic.
Homes priced at $4 million and up have had more signed contracts than any other Manhattan neighborhood during the first week of November. Among the exciting deals are two penthouse units combined into one with an asking price of $66.5 million. The Penthouses are located in The Bellemont, a condo building on Madison Avenue designed by Robert A.M.Stern, a famed architect.
A concealed buyer purchased what will become the 13,011 square foot home. The amenities in the building include a roof terrace, screening room, and squash court.
Another penthouse with a $27 million asking price, also designed by Stern, was signed at 200 East 83rd Street. It has a 41-foot great room and 40-foot loggia with views of Central Park and amenities, including a swimming pool and movie theater.
During the second week of November, a penthouse at 1010 Park Ave went into contract with a $35 million asking price, which saw 60 luxury deals in Manhattan, the most of any week in 2021.
