Informal dining room in a NYC penthouse with a view of central park, Barcelona chairs and modern furniture

A $29.5 million dollar Park Avenue penthouse on the market - a holiday present for someone?  Anyone?  Anyone?

Listed by Sothebys agent Serena Boardman, this duplex two story home is 12 rooms - 5 bedrooms, 6 baths (3 full + 3 partial) in 6,286 sq. ft.

The apartment is on the 30 and 31st floor of a high end condominium building. 52 large windows, 10 foot ceilings, large rooms including a state-of-the-art kitchen, library and media room.

Love the light colored herringbone wood floors and the very architectural steel stair railing.

Take a tour...

Question I always have to ask...would you take it or leave it if money were not an issue but you could only have one home. Hmmm....thinking...I would take it for 5 years then give it to someone else. How does that sound?

Happy Monday!

P.S. Working on 2014 COCOCOZY collection. Lots to do before the end of the year and so little time. Literally just days and counting.  Some new looks! So excited to share with you.  Will be able to give you a glimpse in January.

P.P.S. Must holiday shop every night this week. I am so behind! Arghhh... Also, have to plan my Christmas Eve dinner...now. Oy.

P.P.P.S. Had a nice weekend with TE. Went to drinks at the Polo Lounge on Friday evening with TE (had a cold glass of champagne and enjoyed the holiday mood at the Beverly Hills Hotel), on Saturday saw a movie with TE and his son EE (we saw The Hobbit!...Had never seen any of these movies and it was quite good), and on Sunday TE and I drove around the beach areas with the top down on TE's convertible (yes, we were driving with the top down on a 75 degree day in December). A nice relaxing weekend.  Should have done at least some of my shopping.  I did none!!!! Yikes.  Help.  Need a personal shopper (or I just need to get to it like most people)!

$48 MILLION DOLLAR PARK VIEW PENTHOUSE - SEE THIS HOUSE

Living room in a New York penthouse with coffered ceiling, wood floor and a view of Central Park

$48 million dollars for 5 bedrooms, 6 baths, and 5600 square feet in the center of New York City with spectacular Central Park views. Did I mention the 2500 square feet of outdoor space too!?! This penthouse is being sold by billionaire and one of Forbes richest people in the world Jon Stryker through realtor Brown Harris Stevens.  Stryker apparently bought the apartment awhile back for almost $13 million.  After some renovations and tweaks by renowned architects Shelton Mindel & Associates, Stryker has now put it on the market for $48 million.

I like this space.  The coffered ceilings, the detailed paneling, the large windows with spectacular city and park views.  I would need to make room in my budget to redecorate but if I had, I would consider spending my millions (dream millions) on this apartment!

$75 MILLION DOLLAR NYC PENTHOUSE - SEE THIS HOUSE

Living room in a NYC penthouse with a view of the city


6 bedrooms, 6 full baths, 2 partial baths in 8,274 square feet of interior space with spectacular Central Park views, this New York City penthouse is listed for a mere $75 million dollars by Sotheby's International Real Estate.

This multi million dollar real estate listing was recently gutted, renovated and redesigned by prestigious NYC interior designer Tony Ingrao.  It takes up the entire top floor of the Time Warner Center Building right in the heart of Manhattan.  High ceilings, media room, laundry center, informal dining room and a smart house system that controls lighting, heating, entertainment systems and window coverings.  This manse in the sky seems to have it all.

Now the question is...if I had $75 million to spare...would I buy this?  Let me think....

So would you take it or leave it?

I think I would take it if given to me. I may want to spend the $75 million on a few properties if I had to pay for it myself. Thinking though...who knows.

Happy Tuesday!

SEE THIS HOUSE: A MULTI MILLION DOLLAR NEW YORK CITY LOFT EXPOSED!

great room and dining room with exposed brick walls, high ceilings and a white sofa faces a wall of large, decorative mirrors mirrors. White eames chairs are around a large wooden table.

I found it. Yoohoo! Yay! Wow! I found my dream apartment in New York City.

It is somewhere on the border between Soho and Tribeca...so I would be close to my best of friend AM who lives in Soho. It is bright, cheerful, modern with just a touch of old world architectural charm.

The penthouse apartment is located at 50 Lispenard Street inside a building built back in 1866 that has been perfectly converted.

This 1900 square foot, 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath NYC loft like apartment is listed for sale by Eklund Stockholm New York for $4.55 million dollars - I think this may be considered affordable by New York standards.  Note to self: come up with $4.55 million dollars immediately before this place is snatched up.

A private elevator lets you out into this upper floor apartment. It has 18 foot ceilings, a skylight in the living room, floating staircase, a glass bridge on the upper floors, 8 inch plank heated wood floors and so much more! Did I mention the gorgeous outdoor decks and terraces some with amazing city views?

Enough said...I'll let the pictures expose all in this lovely city space.

Modern art and furniture contrast nicely against the exposed brick in the home's open great room area. (above)

I love this sleek modern cooking area! A Valcucine kitchen with a Subzero refrigerator, Viking cooktop and Kuppersbusch oven, built in Miele Nespresso machine, glass counters and cabinetry. (above)

The floating staircase, 8 inch plank light wood floors, and the glass skylight above make the living room bright and airy. (above)

How many people have a decked terrace with a jacuzzi in their NYC apartment?  The large over sized woven furniture and the Panton chairs are nice additions to the outdoor living space. (above)

The master bedroom offers floor to ceiling windows/glass wall that leads out onto a little private balcony with a big view. (above and below)

Okay...so what do you think of my new dream apartment? Love it or hate it? Do tell.

P.S. Reader Jody R. sent me this picture below this weekend. She spotted a COCOCOZY Quatrefoil pillow at a store in Georgetown - A Mano! Jody and her hubby were doing a little furniture shopping when they ran into COCOCOZY textiles. Jody was so sweet to send me this photo. Exciting to see COCOCOZY in stores around the country!  Thank you Jody!

SEE THIS HOUSE: A $22 MILLION DOLLAR PENTHOUSE WITH WINDOWS GALORE!

living room with encasement window walls with an amazing view of NYC, gray sectional sofa, black ottoman and modern black chairs
A $22 million dollar view in NYC!  (above)
So if you are into architecture, you've heard of 100 11th Avenue in New York.  The high rise residential building was completed a few years ago.  It was designed by famed French architect Jean Nouvel.  The building design includes a veil of over 1600 window panes and from the outside makes an amazing design statement in the sea of buildings in NYC.  I haven't seen it in person but I think I'll pop over to The High Line next time I'm in the city, where apparently you can get incredible views of the building. I'll take a long gawk and gander and will definitely report back.

Well from the inside, apparently this building is pretty incredible too.  A modern masterpiece of sorts. With lots of windows and light and views to write home about. Recently apartment 23a...the penthouse...was up for sale and now according to the realtor's website the unit is "under contract".

The asking price for the penthouse is $22 million dollars for 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths in 4675 square feet of interior space plus a 4100 square foot deck that wraps around the apartment! Whoa.


This multi million dollar NYC flat is listed by Douglas Elliman.

Here's how their website describes the home:

"This spectacular penthouse will take your breath away. With 360 degree views of Manhattan and the Hudson River down to the Statue of Liberty, this is the jewel in the crown that is Jean Nouvel's iconic masterpiece. Unmatched in high concept and layout this home features 14ft ceilings, two fireplaces, floor to ceiling wrap-around windows, an enclosed loggia terrace, and a jaw dropping 4400 square foot terrace. This full floor penthouse is exquisite in every detail. With unparalleled design this 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home has sleek terrazzo floors and a one of a kind layout designed for entertaining!"

Here's a look at what $22 million looks like in New York!

Den with encasement windows with amazing views of NYC, a fireplace, brown bench seating, cream armchairs and a round coffee table.

What do you think of this multi million dollar listing? Love, like or dislike? Would you take it or leave it? How might you tweak with the decor?

I would take it. Would need to change ALL of the decor and warm it up a bit (the white Terrazzo floors make it a little cold)...but I'd make it work.

Happy Monday (again)!

P.S. Thanks to Brenna over at Refinery 29 for posting a list of my favorite things - all home furnishings and accessories in shades of blue. Check out my picks.  They were inspired by my sister's trip to Morocco that I wrote about a few weeks ago! (Thanks to good friend YO for sending over the link this morning when the list came out!)

P.P.S. Running late to work.  Had a few conference calls this morning to discuss some COCOCOZY business...they went well!

P.P.P.S.  Now that I am a million pounds heavier after wining and dining in Atlanta for 4 days...I have no clue what I will wear to the office.  Help.  I wonder if work people will notice the extra bloat and poundage? Must figure out a way to mask...black...middle of summer but I will wear black.  Is it inappropriate to wear a Jil Sander black sun dress to work...it has a very full skirt?  Hmmm...I'm going to do it and toss a sweater over my shoulders.  Note to self...do not eat carrot cake and drink margaritas on next jaunt out of Los Angeles.

P.P.P.P.S.  Hate to end a post on that note about being a million pounds heavier so I'll end it with I think I'm getting a cavity.  Feel tooth ache.  Is that possible?  Yikes...

P.P.P.P.P.S.  Okay...take 3.  Not a good way to end either...talking about cavities and all. Let's see uhm...have a nice day?. :-) LOL!
