5 New York Estates and Penthouses with Elevated Living

Set between the charming shops, world-class restaurants, and pristine beaches of Southampton Village, this newly built estate brings contemporary ease to a classic coastal setting. Inside, an open, airy layout is elevated by soaring ceilings, walls of glass, and abundant natural light. The chef’s kitchen reads as a true centerpiece, with top-of-the-line appliances, custom cabinetry, and generous counter space designed for both everyday meals and elegant entertaining. Six bedrooms and 6.5 baths include dual primary suites—one on the main level and one upstairs—each finished with spa-inspired bathrooms, private seating areas, and oversized closets, plus four additional ensuite bedrooms for guests. A fully finished lower level adds a media lounge, wellness area, and private sauna. Outdoors, heated gunite pool and spa, a poolside cabana with full bath, covered patios, and expansive Turkish marble terraces set the tone for year-round living.

Down a long gravel driveway and tucked behind a curtain of privacy hedges, 50 Tuckahoe Lane sits south of the highway in Southampton Village on 1.2 lush acres. Recently completed and move-in ready, the two-story cedar-clad residence pairs clean architectural lines with expansive glass windows and a soaring double-height foyer that draws in natural light. The open-concept heart of the home is anchored by a gourmet chef’s kitchen with stainless steel appliances, an oversized island, and a walk-in pantry, flowing to the great room and den via a sleek double-sided fireplace. A formal dining room, home office, mudroom with built-ins, and a junior primary suite with a private deck complete the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite offers two custom walk-in closets, a spa-like bath, sitting room, and a private terrace overlooking the serene backyard. Outside: a heated 20′ x 50′ gunite pool with integrated spa, pool house, outdoor shower, sunken patio lounge, and a private sunken tennis court—designed for unhurried Hamptons days at home.

Surrounded by 160 acres in Old Chatham, this estate offers the rare sense of space that changes the rhythm of daily life. The setting reads as a true compound, with guest suites that allow friends and family to settle in with comfort and privacy. Barns add a strong, utilitarian counterpoint—ready for storage, projects, or simply the pleasure of having real outbuildings on the land. A dedicated pool house completes the outdoor program, creating a natural place to gather between long walks across the property and quiet afternoons at home. With so much acreage to move through, the experience here is defined less by a single view and more by a sustained feeling of seclusion, continuity, and room to breathe.

Along the water’s edge in Morningside Heights, this sun-drenched triplex penthouse unfolds with 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, framed by floor-to-ceiling windows that draw in city and river views. Luxury finishes lend a quiet sense of polish throughout, while a chef’s kitchen anchors daily life—equally suited to weeknight cooking and easy entertaining. Outdoors, private terraces extend the living experience into the open air, culminating in a generous 1,250-square-foot roof deck that invites lingering mornings and late evenings above the streetscape. Set within a full-service condominium, the residence pairs the privacy of penthouse living with the ease of staffed, amenity-supported city life, offering a distinctive rhythm of light, skyline, and water from one level to the next.

From its elevated setting high above Warwick, New York, Aire 360 reads as a landmark modern estate, with commanding 360-degree views sweeping across the Hudson Valley and into New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Arrival is choreographed through a custom steel gated entrance, setting the tone for a residence shaped by award-winning architect Joseph Irace’s involvement and defined by a sculptural, aerodynamic profile. Expansive glass and endless windows frame panoramic sightlines from nearly every room, drawing in shifting light, sky, and landscape with a cinematic sensibility. Multiple covered outdoor balconies extend the home’s seamless indoor-outdoor design, creating space to linger in every season. European sophistication runs through the concept—German, Polish, and Spaniard influences, clean lines, refined materials, and systems selected with clear intention—where form, function, technology, and setting converge into one composed daily experience.
