In DUMBO, one of Brooklyn’s most coveted neighborhoods, this full-floor penthouse above the East River offers an extraordinary urban escape where wellness is a given. The home, spanning 3,000 square feet atop 168 Plymouth Street, was completed in 2019 when the luxe building went up but received even more attention from its current sellers, who are seeking $7.995 million for it.
As architecture enthusiasts, the owners of the home wanted to put their touch on it and take the living experience here to the next level. They collaborated with Kamp Studios and Bestcase on the serene, neutral-toned interiors, and Future Green Studio, Summerhill and Organic Gardener for the exteriors. But, it certainly wasn’t all about aesthetics.
The two highest value upgrades were made with wellness and convenience-oriented amenities on the exterior and with technology. Poised for year-round relaxation, the terrace and private rooftop now hold a six-person jacuzzi, a cold plunge, an outdoor shower, a waterproof pergola with dual bromic heaters, an automated sunroof, and a privacy screen to keep away prying eyes. As for the smart home capabilities, the sellers tasked Creston with Josh.AI technology with creating a system that allows you to use voice controls across the entire penthouse.
Of course, an ever-present perk is the incredible views of the East River, Manhattan Bridge and the lower Manhattan skyline. Just imagine grilling outside and watching Fourth of July firework shows from this astounding perch. The residence also offers three bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, and grandly scaled 11-foot ceilings as well as airy open-concept living spaces.
