The Campanile Penthouse: A Masterpiece of History and Luxury
Where Gatsby Meets Gotham: The Crown Jewel of Sutton Place Awaits
If these walls could talk, they’d whisper stories of Jazz Age soirées, secret speakeasies, and power plays over cigars. They’d name-drop Greta Garbo, Noel Coward, and stage legends like Mary Martin, who once called this penthouse home. The Campanile Penthouse isn’t just a residence, it’s 5,000 square feet of living history, crowned with over 2,000 square feet of private terraces that frame the East River and Manhattan skyline like a living painting.
This is where old-world glamour meets modern sophistication. Where legends were made and where your next chapter begins.

The La Cornue Grand Palais 180 stove anchors the professional-grade kitchen, where even simple meals feel elevated. Adjacent, the glass-enclosed sunroom offers pre-dinner cocktails with a view of the city as your backdrop. And when the evening moves outdoors, the wraparound roof terrace becomes your stage, complete with a sleek grill for alfresco feasts.

Your primary suite is more than a retreat; it’s a world apart. Greet the day on your private terrace, with sunlight spilling over the East River. The en suite bathroom is nothing short of spa-worthy, with radiant marble floors, a steam shower, and a soaking tub so deep you might never want to leave.
Expansive walk-in closets provide ample space for your finest pieces, whether they’re bespoke suits, vintage couture, or the occasional nod to Mary Martin’s legacy.
