First Resale. 50 West 66th Street. Triple Mint High Floor 5 BR / 5.5 Bath Masterfully Redesigned Combination with 12-Foot Ceilings

Spanning approximately 4,445 square feet with soaring 12-foot ceilings, this rare top-floor residence in the House, one of the most sought-after collections at Extell's celebrated 50 West 66th Street, represents the first resale opportunity for this exceptional residence. Masterfully redesigned by renowned architect Clive Lonstein, the home was conceived for both grand entertaining and refined daily living.

Set on the 17th and top floor of the House section, the residence offers 4 to 5 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms and balances architectural sophistication with livable warmth. Expansive planes of floor-to-ceiling glass facing west, south, and southeast introduce dramatic vertical volume and allow light to travel throughout the home from morning through sunset. By evening, the residence glows with the lights of Lincoln Center and the surrounding cityscape.

Arrival & Flow
A gracious foyer opens to the home's central gallery, immediately revealing a sense of scale, proportion, and architectural clarity. Acting as the residence's central axis, the gallery separates the entertaining spaces from two distinct and private bedroom wings while maintaining a seamless, open flow throughout.

Primary Bedroom Wing
One side of the residence is dedicated to a private primary bedroom wing, thoughtfully arranged for comfort, flexibility, and separation.

The expansive primary suite is conceived as a tranquil retreat of exceptional proportions. The sleeping quarters are complemented by a spa-quality primary bath clad in Bianco Dolomite and Grigio Carnico marble, complete with a soaking tub, oversized shower, and double vanity.

Adjacent, a gracious sitting room offers additional flexibility and includes its own full en-suite bathroom. This space is easily reconverted to an additional bedroom if desired while preserving the suite's elegant proportions. Exceptionally generous closet space completes the suite.

Within this same wing, the library/office-also with a full en-suite bathroom-functions seamlessly as an additional bedroom, creating a cohesive and highly functional private suite of rooms.

Entertaining Spaces
The gallery unfolds into the grand great room, where the home's ceiling height and walls of glass enhance the sense of openness and airiness. Light shifts throughout the day, reinforcing the home's remarkable volume and scale. This gracious space connects seamlessly to the library/office on one side and the eat-in kitchen on the other.

Kitchen
Designed by Smallbone of Devizes, the eat-in kitchen pairs refined craftsmanship with modern performance. White painted cabinetry with blonde oak accents is complemented by Mountain White marble slab countertops and backsplash and a suite of premium Sub-Zero and Miele appliances.
Additional details include Dornbracht fixtures, a walk-in pantry, and a vented laundry room discreetly positioned for convenience. A stylish powder room completes this section of the home.

Heart of the home - the Den
At the center of the residence, an inviting den provides a relaxed transition between the entertaining spaces and the home's two private bedroom wings, reinforcing both connectivity and separation within the layout.

Secondary Bedroom Wing
On the opposite side of the residence, a separate and equally private bedroom wing houses two additional bedrooms, each with en-suite bathrooms. This thoughtful separation enhances privacy and creates a natural distinction between the primary living quarters and additional bedrooms.

Homes offering this level of volume, ceiling height, and architectural design within the House residences are rarely available.
