Tucked on the edge of the Manhattan's West Village, hidden along the West Side Highway and Hudson River Greenway is 165 Perry St.
On top of that building, is a ginormous apartment which legendary Realtor Dolly Lenz calls "one of the most magnificent penthouse homes in New York City" in her listing.
It was pretty enough to catch the eye of Robert De Niro, who rented the apartment for two years following a fire in their 2012 Upper West Side home, according to the New York Post.
In 2012, the property was up for rental for $80,000 a month according to Curbed, which is likely close to what De Niro paid.
The five bedroom, four bathroom duplex penthouse is now on the market to buy for nearly $40 million.
Its 11,000 square feet of space is packed with amenities, including glass floors and a 3,000-square-foot, 7-car garage. A fireplace sits in the double-height living room, which opens up to a huge dual-level terrace that's perfect for entertaining.
The master's suite has a fireplace, as well. And windowed walk-in closets. And a steam room in the en-suite bathroom.
But there's more. The listing goes on to mention a library, home office, formal dining room, eat-in chef's kitchen, a full prep kitchen, and walk-in pantry, to round out the luxurious amenities.
