One of the world’s most eligible bachelors has just listed his Manhattan penthouse. An apartment as attractive as the homeowner, Trevor Noah, has come on the market for a price of $12.95 million.
Manhattan Penthouse
This luxury real estate offers amazing views of the city and the Hudson River in the New York Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood. Moreover, designers have carefully updated the three-bedroom, 3,600-square-foot duplex apartment since Trevor bought it in 2017. The building retains the historic ambiance of the Art Deco-era New York Telephone Building. Originally designed in the 1920s by Ralph Thomas Walker, who was recognized in 1957 by The New York Times as the “Architect of the Century,” the building was converted to apartments in 2014 by CetraRuddy and design work by Jarvis Studio and renamed Stella Tower (named after Mr. Walker’s late wife). The building has one of the city’s most beautiful lobbies. Moreover, it is located near many of the city’s most important addresses, including Central Park.
Located on both the 17th and 18th floors, this luxury penthouse includes a floating staircase, floor-to-ceiling windows, and 15’ ceilings. Unique features of the home include a home theater, a dining area, a black-granite wet bar, and a marble fireplace. Some other features include upholstery, dramatic archways, stylish lighting, chef’s kitchen with two dishwashers. There is also a 1,000-square-foot terrace with a heated plunge pool and speakers. Big southern views are unobstructed by neighboring buildings, which allows the sun to follow through the windows.
The apartment walls have been perfectly finished with various textures and accents, including hand-rubbed Cortina leather in the primary bedroom, a black Fior di Bosco marble powder room with hand-applied Callidus Guild plaster walls, and wool Holland & Sherry upholstered walls in the theater room. Moreover, the kitchen is elegant and functional with top-of-the-line appliances. The French-oak flooring also flows throughout the space, which provides a perfect canvas for the whole penthouse.
