EXCLUSIVE: ‘Expansive’ Penthouse Opposite Sabrina Carpenter’s New York Pad Hits the Market for $9.5 Million

by Charlie Lankston

One lucky—and wealthy—Sabrina Carpenter fan is being given the chance to experience the same high life as the chart-topping pop star by snapping up an "expansive" New York City penthouse that is located directly opposite the "Espresso" singer's new Manhattan abode.

"Perched atop one of Tribeca's most sought-after new developments," the three-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom unit offers close to 2,900 square feet of living space—as well as an enormous terrace that offers sweeping views of the city skyline.

The duplex property, which is listed with Michelle Griffith of Douglas Elliman, offers a premier level of luxury living, with every element of the property's layout designed to emphasize its "scale, light, and sweeping skyline views," according to the description.

"What makes Penthouse 1 so special is the balance it strikes," Griffith tells Realtor.com®. "You have the scale and presence of a true penthouse, but it still feels incredibly livable. The layout flows effortlessly, and every space is intentional."

According to the listing agent, the penthouse is something of an enigma, offering the best in privacy and security—while also providing a bird's-eye view of one of Manhattan's most star-studded neighborhoods.

In addition to being located just across the street from the building where Carpenter snapped up a $9.95 million unit in September, the property is just a stone's throw from Taylor Swift's sprawling Tribeca home, as well as the "paparazzi-proof" high-rise where Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds live.

"Tribeca has always attracted a certain caliber of buyer—people who want privacy, scale, and architectural integrity—but 91 Leonard really elevates that," Griffith adds.

"The building feels modern and design-forward, but it still fits seamlessly into the character of the neighborhood. It’s polished without trying too hard, which is exactly what today’s luxury buyer is looking for.

"Buyers are drawn to this pocket of Tribeca because it offers discretion. You’re surrounded by some of the most high-profile residents in the city, but it never feels flashy. It’s understated luxury, and that’s ultimately what makes it so appealing to that world."

Luxury begins from the moment you set foot inside the upscale building, which offers an array of high-end amenities, including " a 24-hour attended lobby and concierge, landscaped courtyard gardens, a lounge with fireplace and billiards, a 60-foot lap pool with spa facilities, state-of-the-art fitness center, screening room, children's playroom, rooftop terrace with grills, bike storage, and a live-in superintendent."

The penthouse itself is equally impressive, beginning with the enormous terrace, which spans more than 1,000 square feet and offers the kind of indoor-outdoor living rarely found in the heart of the Big Apple.

The terrace is configured with several seating areas, as well as an enormous grill, creating the perfect place to host guests during the warmer months.

"Crowning the residence, the expansive private rooftop terrace is outfitted with a gas grill and multiple seating areas for gracious entertaining. With sweeping downtown views to the south and east, this remarkable outdoor space offers a rare extension of the home," the listing states.

But even when the temperatures drop, the views from the property can still be enjoyed, thanks to the enormous floor-to-ceiling windows that wrap the majority of rooms in the unit.

"Expansive living and dining spaces are wrapped in oversized windows capturing iconic Tribeca architecture, including the landmarked clock tower, while flooding the interiors with natural light from both eastern and western exposures," the listing notes.

The vistas offer a beautiful backdrop for the top-of-the-line features found inside the home. They include a state-of-the-art eat-in kitchen that is "anchored by a dramatic marble waterfall island and complemented by Poliform cabinetry, brass hardware, and a full suite of Gaggenau appliances."

The open-plan living and dining area offers ample space for indoor dinner parties, as well as a picturesque space to kick back and relax while enjoying the beautiful vistas.

Of the three bedrooms in the unit, the primary suite is the standout. The "serene retreat" offers a "spa-caliber" en suite bathroom, as well as a huge dressing room.

"Two additional bedrooms are generously proportioned, each with en-suite baths," the description adds.

The penthouse is equipped with a sophisticated smart home system, allowing residents to control nearly every aspect of daily living—including lighting and temperature—at the touch of a button.

Two private storage units are included in the sale.
