This Is the Most Expensive Duplex in New York City
Being one of the most expensive cities in the world, it makes perfect sense that New York City would also have some of the most expensive homes in the world.
But while there are quite a few expensive homes here, this one really stands out.
The most expensive home in New Your City is this wonderful apartment worth 120 million dollars.

This co-op is on 834 Fifth Avenue on the famous Upper East Side apartment building in which beloved celebrities like Rupert Murdoch and Elizabeth Arden have lived.
According to ny.curbed.com, this home is also the most expensive co-op in the city, besting the 18th-floor apartment at the Sherry-Netherland that previously held the record.
As for this 834 Fifth Avenue pad, it was previously owned by financier John Gutfreund, who passed away earlier this year.
According to the Wall Street Journal, which first reported the news, the apartment is located on the building’s seventh and eighth floors, and has 20 (!) rooms spread out over 12,000 square feet.

It has many of the amenities found in these types of NYC apartments (by which we mean “very expensive and over-the-top”), including a wine cellar, a gallery, a “grand marble staircase,” and an enormous master suite.
Still, even at that price, there’s a chance that whoever buys the place may want to upgrade it—after all, it was owned by the same family for around 30 years—but the broker in charge of the sale, BHS’s John Burger, says that “many people will appreciate and want to preserve the grandeur of what is there.” (If they’re willing to spend $120 million, sure, why not.)
