It’s not easy to find a Manhattan apartment with six full bedrooms and enough outdoor space for a summer full of barbecues without investing in a multi-story townhouse–and the maintenance burden that comes with it. Asking $7,985,000, this duplex condo at 120 East 29th Street is a study in contemporary design, surrounded by all the convenience and fun of the Nomad neighborhood and nearby Madison Square Park. Its six bedrooms are separated to give breathing space to family and guests; perhaps best of all, a wall of windows on the home’s lower level opens onto 1,600 square feet of private landscaped backyard and patio space.
In addition to the home’s open design, smart home electronic systems provide ease of living. A Savant automation system controls the lights, blinds, and A/V equipment throughout, and there is a dedicated security system.
Currently configured with four bedrooms, an office, and a media room, the sprawling modern layout starts on the first floor with a long private entryway. Surrounded by sliding glass walls, the main living space accesses the yard, a wonder of landscape architecture complete with waterfalls and space for outdoor cooking and dining.
The living room’s sitting area is served by a wet bar with a wine cooler and ice maker; the dining area offers views of the backyard. A separate media room provides a cozy gathering space.
For indoor dining, a Boffi kitchen features Carrara marble worktops and a dining counter. A suite of Gaggenau appliances includes a steam oven and a warming drawer. A capacious walk-in pantry keeps the space sleek and functional.
Access the second floor with a modern stair that floats beneath a dramatic custom chandelier. An open hall accesses bedrooms, an office, and a central playroom. The primary suite is distinguished by modern architectural design flourishes and the luxury of a custom dressing room.
Additional bedrooms–some with ensuite baths–are situated at the opposite end of the hallway. Two chambers currently serve as an office and home gym (outfitted with Murphy beds for extra convenience). A retractable wall converts the space back to two separate bedrooms in an instant. Also on this floor are a laundry room and plenty of storage.
All of this privacy and space comes with the convenience of a boutique luxury condominium. In addition to a 600-square-foot private storage room, amenities include a part-time doorman, a bicycle room, and a rooftop terrace with city skyline views.
