Make your home among the clouds in this breathtaking convertible four-bedroom, three-bathroom penthouse featuring expansive interiors, two private terraces and jaw-dropping city and river views high atop The Aurora, a full-service, investor-friendly Murray Hill condominium. A gracious foyer flanked by a guest bath and walk-in closet usher you into this impressive high-floor home filled with wide-plank hardwood floors, 10-foot-tall ceilings and oversized windows on the northern, eastern and southern exposures.

Off the living room, a large terrace is perfect for al fresco dining overlooking the East River and exciting skyline views that sweep past the Empire State Building all the way to One World Trade. The oversized eat-in kitchen impresses with sleek custom cabinetry, stone counters and a suite of upscale stainless steel appliances, including a vented cooktop, oven, dishwasher and Sub-Zero refrigerator.

There’s plenty of space for a dining area here, and a bedroom suite in this wing is perfect for guests or staff. Past the living room, you’ll find a stunning primary suite with two large closets and a lovely en suite bathroom. A secondary bedroom opens to the home’s second terrace wrapped in jaw-dropping northern and eastern views. An in-unit washer-dryer completes this perfect penthouse home.
