O
n the tranquil Roosevelt Island, a $2.4 million penthouse is poised to reign supreme as the most expensive property for sale on this Manhattan borough's small landmass. If it sells at its asking price, it will also set a new record for the island's priciest sale ever.

    Located in the coveted Riverwalk Court at 415 Main St., this three-bedroom, three-bathroom residence boasts an impressive 1,433 square feet of living space and unobstructed views of Manhattan's skyline and the East River. The unit's floor-to-ceiling windows frame a breathtaking panorama that includes the iconic bridge and tram.

    The penthouse's open-concept design seamlessly blends a spacious living area with a gourmet kitchen featuring high-end appliances and abundant natural light. Two ensuite bedrooms are nestled among three total, each adorned with marble-clad bathrooms, 12-foot ceilings, and ample storage. Additional perks include an in-unit washer/dryer and private storage cage.

    Riverwalk Court's upscale amenities cater to the most discerning residents, offering round-the-clock concierge service, a fitness center, yoga studio, children's playroom, entertainment lounge, and a rooftop terrace with panoramic views of the city and river. The building's lobby is a stylish entrance to this exclusive community.

    The listing agent, Greg Kyroglou of Modern Spaces, notes that the sellers are downsizing after owning their current unit for over a decade. They were initially drawn to Roosevelt Island's unique blend of calmness and urban proximity. "Once they saw how intimate it was and how quiet it is," Kyroglou said, "it sealed the deal."

    The $2.4 million price tag reflects the penthouse's exceptional features, including its size and unparalleled views. For context, a neighboring property at 425 Main St. with similar square footage but fewer bathrooms is under contract for $2.1 million. "We're actually priced pretty well," Kyroglou said.

    Roosevelt Island offers an unbeatable balance of seclusion and accessibility, making it an attractive residential haven. As Kyroglou noted, "You can be between Manhattan and Queens and get the best of both worlds right there." This penthouse is poised to become the crown jewel of Riverwalk Court, offering its next owner a unique opportunity to experience island living at its finest.
