The couple acquired the four-bedroom residence from real estate developer Steven Brauser, Chairman and CEO of Parkland Group, who had purchased the flat in 2018 for US$10.5 million. The transaction marks a significant addition to the Biebers' property holdings and establishes their permanent residence in one of Manhattan's most desirable locations. The property is situated in one of Downtown Manhattan's most popular waterfront buildings, offering views of the Hudson River and architecture designed by Pritzker Prize winner Herzog & de Meuron.
Spanning 2,792 square feet, the penthouse features four bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms. Outstanding features include a Bulthaup kitchen, a separate chef's kitchen, a marble master bathroom, a private storage area, as well as access to a 70-foot indoor swimming pool and a wellness centre. The open-plan living area forms the focal point of the penthouse, with its floor-to-ceiling glass walls revealing panoramic westerly views. From almost every spot, the view extends over the Hudson River to the Statue of Liberty, creating a stunning backdrop.
Adjacent to the living area is the dining space, which seamlessly transitions into a Bulthaup kitchen. This is equipped with Scandinavian larch wood cabinetry, Sivec marble countertops, and a large waterfall island. Fully integrated appliances from Sub-Zero, Wolf, Gaggenau, and Miele are discreetly built into the minimalist cabinets to maintain the clean aesthetic. A separate, enclosed chef's kitchen provides additional workspace with a freezer, wine cooler, steam oven, and an extra sink.
One of the bedrooms next to the large living area is currently configured as a bright home office, making optimal use of the penthouse's views. However, as the space retains the proportions of a full bedroom behind its sliding doors, it could easily be reconfigured as a guest suite, nursery, gym, or private den, offering the Biebers flexibility to adapt to future needs. The celebrity couple's master suite features a fully upholstered headboard wall in front of floor-to-ceiling windows. Soft, neutral bedding and a seating area beside the glass contribute to the calming atmosphere, with the water view as the central focus. The bathroom follows the same understated design, enveloped in marble over underfloor heating. It boasts a floating double vanity and a freestanding bathtub, conveniently placed next to the windows, while a glazed shower is opposite.
A custom-built walk-in wardrobe with integrated shelving, drawers, and hanging rods completes the suite, designed to maximise organisation without detracting from the home's streamlined appearance. The remaining bedrooms offer great flexibility for additional family members and guests. One of the bedrooms has been staged as a children's room – complete with two single beds, playful art, built-in desks, and a custom chalkboard wall. The Biebers reportedly plan to retain the chalkboard feature for their son, Jack Blue. The guest bedroom follows the same neutral colour palette as the rest of the home, brightened by tall windows where light reflects off a circular mirror in the room.
Designed by Herzog & de Meuron and developed by hospitality visionary Ian Schrager, the waterfront condominium is known for its sculptural architecture and extensive resident amenities. Owners have access to a 70-foot indoor swimming pool, a hot tub, a fitness centre, yoga and Pilates studios, a steam room, a sauna, a massage room, a private event lounge, a children's clubhouse, concierge services, valet parking, and a landscaped courtyard. This purchase provides the Biebers with a private residence in New York City within one of Manhattan's most coveted residential buildings. Known for attracting high-profile owners who value discretion, their new West Village address offers the privacy and security well-suited for starting a young family, while maintaining proximity to the city's fashion, entertainment, and business hubs. As their work is expected to frequently bring them to New York, the penthouse offers a convenient additional home that should significantly ease the balance between career and family life when moving from coast to coast.
