New York City real estate has no shortage of rarities; basic staples like dishwashers and washer-dryers are notoriously hard to come by, for example. Often dreamed about but scarcely attained is the 360-degree view, a luxury easily found outside the urban jungle but elusive within it, as apartments with such a claim must occupy a building’s entire floor. One such apartment, the Hudson Square penthouse of 70 Charlton Street, has just hit the market asking $8.495 million. Whoever scoops up the property can turn in a circle to look at Midtown, the Financial District, and the Hudson River without taking a step.Listed with Steve Gold, who stars alongside Fredrik Eklund and Ryan Serhant on Million Dollar Listing New York, the 3,183-square-foot penthouse features 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, and a 2,150-square-foot roof terrace. With a purposeful loft-esque feel, the apartment was designed to emulate the historic buildings of the surrounding Printing District. Industrial features are prevalent throughout, from gray wood floors reminiscent of polished concrete to the boxy, paned warehouse windows.Another benefit of the abundant exposure? Every room is flooded with natural light. In the south-facing master suite, which boasts a sculptural, free-standing tub and walk-in closets, there will be no better way to wake up or unwind after a long day than with unobstructed views of the sun rising and setting.
