A spectacular new listing has hit Billionaires’ Row — and it’s now the most expensive home currently for sale in New York City. Rising above the clouds on the 127th and 128th floors of Central Park Tower, this extraordinary duplex is asking a staggering $128 million. The residence sits inside the tallest primarily residential building in the world, making it the highest duplex home ever brought to market.
Listed by the Gambino Group at Compass, the 11,535-square-foot residence spans two full floors of the tower and offers panoramic, floor-to-ceiling views that stretch from Central Park to the far edges of the metropolitan region.
Although the price is eye-catching, it’s not unprecedented for the building: Central Park Tower once listed a penthouse for $250 million in 2022, though that property was later removed from the market after a price reduction.
A Masterpiece of Scale and Design
Designed by Rottet Studio, the duplex is defined by dramatic proportions and clean architectural lines. Nearly 15-foot ceilings, expansive gallery hallways, and a striking glass-enclosed staircase create a sense of openness and vertical grandeur.
The main level features:
-
A sequence of grand entertaining spaces
-
A private library
-
A custom-designed kitchen with Smallbone cabinetry and book-matched marble
The upper level is devoted to the home’s private quarters, including an oversized primary suite with two dressing rooms and dual spa-sized bathrooms — each carefully oriented to capture unobstructed Central Park and skyline views.
Designed by Rottet Studio, the “Apex Duplex” features a 14-foot-6-inch ceiling, as well as floor-to-ceiling glass, custom Smallbone cabinetry and a dramatic glass-enclosed staircase.
The primary suite includes dual dressing rooms and spa baths, with a freestanding tub positioned over Central Park.
An ensuite bathroom.
50,000 Square Feet of Unmatched Amenities
Residents of Central Park Tower enjoy access to the Central Park Club, a multi-level, 50,000-square-foot amenity program offering:
-
Indoor and outdoor pools
-
A state-of-the-art fitness center
-
A regulation sports court
-
Private dining rooms and lounges
-
A restaurant and event space on the 100th floor, the highest private venue in the world
With its unprecedented elevation, world-class design, and breathtaking vistas, this $128 million duplex stands as one of the most remarkable luxury offerings ever listed in New York City.
