The mesmerizing, triplex penthouse in Zaha Hadid’s spectacular High Line building has finally been unveiled, and is officially on the market. For buyers who can’t afford the $50 million price tag, you can look, but don’t fall too in love with it. Clocking in at 6,853-square-feet and boasting sweeping city views, it may be impossible not to.Upping the ante on this pristine pad is the fact that it sits atop the only Manhattan building Zaha Hadid designed before her untimely passing. The 11-story stunner located at 520 West 28th Street launched sales three years ago and is currently approximately half sold, according to the New York Times. Perhaps posh potential buyers have been holding their breath waiting to see what the penthouse holds.All the hype around the 5-bedroom, 6.5 bathroom mansion in the sky certainly does not disappoint. Soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and a sculptural staircase almost make the unit feel like living art. There’s a distinct fluidity to Hadid’s designs, which continues throughout the residence with curved windows and a unique kitchen counter. Function is also at the forefront with 10-foot wide motorized windows and top-of-the-line appliances from Gaggenau. Just in case the apartment, dubbed Penhouse 37, isn’t spectacular enough inside, the stylish roof level has a 2,000-square-foot terrace.Looking at this one-of-a-kind abode is certainly dangerous if you don’t have $50 million to spend. If you do, get in touch with listing agent Charlie Attias of Corcoran before the property gets snatched up.
