Newly knighted Sir Lewis Hamilton, has sold the spectacular Penthouse H at 443 Greenwich Street, Manhattan, for $49.5 million.
The New York Post has described the recent sale as "the biggest downtown sale of the year", the nearly 9,000-square-foot, three-story penthouse sits atop an exclusive and celebrity-heavy building in the Manhattan neighbourhood of Tribeca.
The swanky penthouse sold for $49.5 million, a profit over the $44 million Hamilton paid when he purchased it back in 2017.
Realtor, Compass listed the penthouse as " the crown jewel of 443 Greenwich Street, an enclave of exclusivity in the heart of Northwest Tribeca. Measuring over 12,000 interior and exterior square feet, Penthouse H features six bedrooms, six bathrooms, two half bathrooms, 20′ soaring ceilings, multiple terraces, a plunge pool, and two dedicated parking spaces. This is a rare combination of volume, character, light, and luxury beyond imagination."
Beyond that, there are quite a few amenities, as you might imagine given the sheer size of the penthouse. There's a private elevator for traveling between the apartment's three floors, including what the listing calls the "pièce de résistance of Penthouse H": an almost 3,500-square-foot glass-enclosed top level, with floor-to-ceiling glass walls designed for breathtaking views of the city below and beyond.
The building is no stranger to notable figures, and some of its former and current residents include The Weekend, Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel, Harry Styles, Jake Gyllenhaal, Rebel Wilson, and more.
Although no longer owing Penthouse H, Hamilton does still have another piece of Tribeca real estate that's almost as impressive. It's the penthouse apartment of another luxury building nearby, which he purchased in 2019 for $40 million.
The nearly $50 million sale might have been the biggest in the area this year, but it comes after years of Hamilton trying to get rid of the property. He first listed in 2019 for $57 million, the property reportedly costs some $16,000 per month to maintain.
