Trump Tower Penthouse, Estate of the Day

Filed under: Estates

If you have the world at your feet, why not have a home that does your bidding too. A duplex condominium at Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in New York City with SmartHome technology has been put on the market for $14.995 million. It is listed with Paula Del Nunzio, Senior Vice President, Managing Director of Brown Harris Stevens. The home's system integrates music, security, lighting, climate, window treatments and more and has internet-based remote support so that your home can be controlled from anywhere. Each room has customizable color touch screens with wall, remote and desktop controls. Invisible speakers are concealed behind the walls and ceilings, with iPod docking stations located throughout the apartment. The programmable lighting system offers a multitude of dimming and lighting scenarios.

The home's main entry is on the 48th floor and the floor-to-ceiling windows offer views of Central Park and buildings such as The Plaza and Sherry-Netherland Hotels. On this floor a guest bedroom or library with en-suite bath has views of Central Park. Also off the foyer is a large laundry room and a coat closet. Unlike some deluxe apartments, this one has a kitchen that actually seems made for use with twin Miele dishwashers, a Thermador range, Thermador refrigerator, Miele cappuccino maker, convection microwave and steam oven. Nearby an informal dining space has a 72" Perlick wine cooler, barstools and a banquet and just beyond is the formal dining room. Set beside the informal dining room is a bedroom with en-suite bath.

Upstairs on the 49th floor is the master suite which has his and hers baths with Kohler steam showers with a six-head jet system thermostatically controlled by Kohler's DTV panels both inside and outside of the shower. No need to go downstairs for a snack, a kitchenette with dishwasher and refrigerator sits at the top of the stairs. There is also a separate study or guest bedroom at the end of the corridor. The master bedroom is designed so that the bed is positioned perfectly so that Central Park views are the first thing you see in the morning for a very master-of-all-you-survey feeling. The listing is here.

If you've ever really listened to the lyrics to the holiday song, Santa Baby, it details quite a fabulous wish list. Looking around today trying to fulfill every item would make for a bounty of gifts, especially for just one person, but if we were to give it a shot, this is what might end up under the tree:

'Santa Baby, just slip a sable under the tree, for me...'
'...Santa Baby, a '54 convertible too, light blue...'
'...Santa Baby, I want a yacht and really that's not a lot...'
'...Santa honey, one little thing I need, the deed, to the platinum mine...'
'...Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex and cheques...'
'...Come and trim my Christmas tree with some decorations bought at Tiffany's...'
'...Santa Baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring...'
