Exclusive residences offer luxury of living in a hotel without the guests, with private dining services by Michelin-starred Chef Daniel Boulud
Read MoreWith the holiday season officially underway, I wanted to share a fun and timely round-up of new luxury buildings that offer exceptional dining and entertaining spaces. Holiday entertaining is no easy task and while hosting the party has its benefits (hello never having to leave your home), there are some major drawbacks - namely the pre- and post-event cleanup.
Fortunately, some of today’s developers are integrating the ultimate solution into their sought-after condominiums: high design dining and entertainment spaces outfitted with top-of-the-line catering kitchens. Available for private parties and reservations, these amenity spaces retain the comfort and ease of remaining in one’s building, without the added stress and hassle of hosting guests in your actual home. Below are some of today’s most luxurious buildings and their dining and entertainment amenity spaces.
At 200 Amsterdam, the recently completed condominium on Manhattan's Upper West Side, residents can host the ultimate holiday feast or soiree in style at The Club at 200 which features a private dining room and lounge ideal for celebration. Designed by CetraRuddy, the inviting space features a dining area, prep kitchen and lounge space with access to the landscaped terrace, perfect for before or after dinner cocktails.
Designed by celebrated architect Robert A.M. Stern, 20 East End Avenue’s club-inspired amenities include an elegant cellar outfitted with a private dining area ideal for intimate holiday gatherings. A round table, fireplace, and vaulted ceilings with exposed beams create an elevated yet rustic aesthetic, while striking sconces imbue a subtle warmth. A chef’s prep kitchen and integrated sound system ensure a pristine entertaining experience.
200 East 59th Street, the modern tower at the intersection of the Upper East Side and Midtown East, is the first condominium to partner with Social Studies, the Gwyneth Paltrow-backed startup that Vogue dubbed "the Rent the Runway of parties." In conjunction with the opening of its elegant residents' lounge and outdoor terrace, 200 East 59th Street is offering upscale party rentals and decor from Social Studies to residents hosting their holiday celebrations at the building. Residents can use Social Studies for events small and large, whether they be in their apartments or 200 East 59th Street’s luxe amenity lounge. They can also gain design inspiration from the communal dining room, which is currently stylized with the “White Out” fall table setting.

When you decide to sell your home, it's important that you know how to keep your valuables safe during the selling process. This is because you will be letting potential buyers into your private space, and these are people whose true intentions you don't know. Have a look at four effective ways in which you can keep your valuables safe as you sell your home.
Secure any valuables including jewelry and sources of personal information before potential buyers start coming in. Valuables not only include family heirlooms but also tech gadgets and important documents. You don't necessarily have to invest in a large safe, especially when you're moving, but you can typically find one online that's relatively easy to hide away in your property, especially with 1.8 billion websites operating every day. Keeping a safe ensures your valuables stay out of sight and out of reach of potential thieves.
When you have people coming over to see your home, it's great to have company with you. If you're working with a realtor, accompany them so that neither of you is alone while potential buyers are walking around your home. Even realtors themselves may need some caution because the industry may have an unscrupulous one or two who won't hesitate to take an opportunity when they see it. If you're not working with a realtor, ask a friend or family member to accompany you. This will not only improve your safety, but it will also make it easy to keep an eye on potential burglars when there's someone else in the house with you, especially since home buyers tend to go for viewings as a couple or in the company of friends.
If a person enters your home under the guise of buying your property, they'll be less likely to steal from you if they see that you have security cameras installed. In fact, according to a recent study, even the police receive 93% fewer complaints from the public when they wear body cameras. This is because people are less likely to commit crimes when they know they run the risk of being caught. Depending on the person's criminal history, as well, they might not want to run the risk of being charged again. Since 2007, a person charged with a 3rd or subsequent offense in their lifetime can be charged with a felony. This makes security cameras a great asset from while you're living in your home to when you're selling it.
Finally, thieves may take advantage of homes on sale to find and steal prescription drugs. They could try to blend in with the crowd of potential buyers and sneak away at an opportune moment while you're distracted by other guests to find any drugs left in the open. Before you know it, they will be out of the door with a bottle or two of your medication. Avoid this by keeping all drugs locked up in cabinets with a key, or even keeping them out of sight in a secure drawer.
When you're selling your home and giving potential buyers the opportunity to explore your property, it can often be nerve-wracking. You want to make sure that any valuables and equipment that you have in your home are safe and secure. Consider the four tips above to make sure that both you and your valuables are safe and don't end up in the hands of opportunistic thieves.

The world’s wealthiest dog is about to get a little richer. Worth nearly half a billion dollars, the German Shepherd named Gunther VI just listed the former Miami estate of the world’s greatest pop star – Madonna – for $31.75 Million.
Situated in one of the most desired locations in Miami, the private estate sits on a 51,000-sq.ft lot with 100 feet of water frontage featuring lush landscaping, breathtaking open bay and city views, and a dock to soak in the South Florida sunshine. Spanning 8,400-sq.ft, with 9 bedrooms and 8.5 bathrooms, the residence is one of only six waterfront homes in the exclusive enclave.
To land the coveted listing, expert real estate agents Ruthie and Ethan Assouline with The Assouline Team at Compass had to undergo a rigorous “sniff test” and received a bark of approval from Gunther VI before entrusting them with the sale of the property.
Gunther VI inherited his vast fortune, and the Miami estate, from his grandfather Gunther IV who purchased it from the pop star over 20 years ago. The canine comes from a lineage that dates back 40 years and 6 generations. Gunther III inherited a multimillion-dollar trust when his owner the late German countess Karlotta Liebenstein died in 1992.
Since then, the humans who manage the doggy estate have amassed a fortune worth nearly $500 Million and invested Gunther’s money to snatch up mansions and villas all over the world, from Miami to Tuscany (his primary residence), Florence and Milan—and invested in various sectors from real estate to publishing, sports teams, nightclubs and scientific research to uncover the secret to living a life of happiness.
According to the dictates of his legacy, Gunther’s bloodline have all lived a life full of love, joy and pleasure in the lap of luxury – with a group of handlers, maids and butlers to tend to the pampered pooch’s every need. The jet-setting dog travels by private jet, eats steak and caviar for dinner, owns multiple yachts and collector cars, and even purchased rare $1.1 Million white truffle at auction. In recent years, Gunther Rescue was founded as a benefit society to help animals in need.
While Gunther VI embarks on the next phase of his journey, the new owner of this Miami estate will have the perfect opportunity to restore or build new in a prime location with a unique history that no one else in the world can claim.
3029 Brickell Avenue is listed for $31.75 Million by Ruthie & Ethan Assouline with The Assouline Team at Compass.

For many residing outside of the city, the crisp fall air is synonymous with wool sweaters, hearty soups, and crackling wood-burning fireplaces. However, in New York City, before we can cozy up by the fire - there is an array of qualifications we must check off before committing to a property. A coveted amenity with a dwindling supply, a wood-burning fireplace can command a premium from $25,000 to as much as $100,000 on Fifth Avenue and Central Park according to most appraisers.
Before committing, it’s imperative to understand the pros, cons, and cautions for buyers and renters seeking a warm fire on a cold Gotham night. To be prepared we hope this overview on the dos and don’ts is helpful before committing to your preferred home with accommodating reclaimed fireplaces.
In New York City, it is not uncommon for a building to seal off the chimneys during renovations and repairs and offer the mantle as an aesthetic contribution rather than a source of warmth. Before closing on any property, make sure you are getting what you are looking for! In recent years, approximately less than 10% of fireplaces in apartments listed on Streeteasy are in working order. If you are graced with the privilege of having a New York City fireplace, it is recommended that chimneys and fireplaces are professionally painted and cleaned bi-annually or periodically depending on usage.
Because of the added maintenance that comes with having a fireplace in the city, it is important to assess the upkeep costs that you might be assuming responsibility for. As part of pre-purchase diligence, be sure to have a conversation (and document it!) with your landlord and discuss what falls under your building’s jurisdiction and maintenance, and what falls under yours.
Usually, standard homeowner’s insurance covers fire and smoke damages; however, depending on the insurer, you may have additional charges to cover. Most recently, you can anticipate an increase of 2% and higher depending on your insurance carrier.
If you are new to fireplaces, you may not yet know the safety risk behind these added amenities. To ensure an efficient and safe fireplace for you and your loved ones, there are some precautions you must take. The top priority is knowing the signs of poor ventilation. An example of this would be a blockage, in which smoke may be blown back into your living space. Never put anything flammable near the entrance of the fireplace, and more conveniently, leave the space surrounding a fireplace empty. To avoid a fire, never leave a fire unattended, and be cautious of what you chose to burn. And, in case of an emergency, always have a working carbon monoxide and smoke alarm and a ready-to-use fire extinguisher.

As temperatures start to drop and we inch into the cooler months of the year, access to indoor amenities and entertainment options is increasingly valuable. Developers of luxury NYC condos continue to up the ante by incorporating luxe screening rooms and entertainment centers into their building's amenity offering, giving residents the option to forgo the local movie theater or home television and instead enjoy new releases, classic films, popular shows and big sports games within a private, specially designed setting. Furthermore, with state-of-the-art equipment and upscale design, residents can watch their favorite movies and shows through a viewing experience that exceeds movie-theater quality audio/visual while being far more convenient and comfortable. Plus, many of these spaces are available for residents to reserve for private showings!
Front & York
Designed inside and out by celebrated architect Morris Adjmi, Front & York is pioneering an unprecedented amenity-driven lifestyle in DUMBO. Elevating the standard of luxury living in the area, Front & York offers residents access to an astounding 150,000 square feet of amenity spaces, one of the most comprehensive offerings in New York City. Reminiscent of exclusive membership clubs, the development's luxurious rooftop amenity space consists of two amenity wings linked by a vibrantly landscaped wrap-around terrace. Ideal for get-togethers all year long, the plush outdoor screening lounge is warmed by integrated heat lanterns and a grand fireplace.

Brooklyn Point
No need to travel to a sports bar during football season! Brooklyn Point — the tallest building in the borough you can live in — has you covered. This Downtown Brooklyn building offers the ultimate screening and performance room, making it the perfect place for residents and friends to gather and watch a game. Should it be warm outside, residents can take advantage of the outdoor movie screening space located on the building’s roof 680 feet above ground, also accompanied by the Western Hemisphere’s highest residential infinity pool, lounge chairs and al fresco dining areas.

53 West 53
With over 30,000 square feet of extraordinary amenities and deeply personalized five-star-hotel-level services, it's no surprise 53 West 53 — the striking, Jean Nouvel-designed residential tower above MoMA in Midtown — offers a private, state-of-the-art theater exuding elegance and luxury from every angle. Renowned interior architect Thierry Despont, known for his iconic work on the Ritz in Paris and Claridge's in London, designed the residences and most of the shared spaces at 53 West 53, including the screening room. It features ambient lighting, rich finishes designed with a regal color palette and a massive screen that makes each of the 18 plush, theater-style inspired seats the absolute best in the house. Even after the movie ends, residents won't want to leave this private theater that's as comfortable as it is elegant.

Welcome to one of the hidden gems of New York City, an awe-inspiring home that is as impressive as it is livable. With six bedrooms and five bathrooms, this single-family property, featuring exquisite modern design, multiple outdoor spaces, a swimming pool, a hot tub, and a private garage, sits in the heart of Red Hook, a short 15-minute drive from downtown Manhattan.
Architecture and design firm, thread collective, in collaboration with Black Brick Contemporary, transformed an award winning, commercial workspace by Ogawa, Depardon into a generous and bespoke residence. This one of a kind home is powered by solar energy and spans 6,000-square-feet across three levels, and offers an ideal indoor-outdoor layout for restful relaxation or lavish entertaining. The vast great room makes a dramatic first impression with 24-foot-tall ceilings, skylights and linear gas fireplace. Poured concrete and wide-plank hardwood walnut floors sit beneath the soaring ceilings, while swaths of glass, walnut trim and blackened steel details add a chic mixed-materials design. 15-foot sliding glass doors that span up to 60-feet when fully open, lead to an outdoor oasis. Here, a 40-foot lap pool and spa are flanked by lush landscaping, an outdoor shower, and a spacious deck.
The open gourmet kitchen, anchored by a 15-foot-long island, has not only the intimacy for a four-person meal but the capability to manage a forty-person event.

A wall of sleek entry closets and a large study with built-in floating shelves, walnut ceilings, and beautiful pool views complete the level.
Translucent mesh screens line the floating staircase and hallway to the second level, where a mezzanine overlooking the great room doubles as a home theater. Two bedrooms with floor-to-ceiling windows open to a sitting room/playroom and share a large full bathroom with a double vanity. A third bedroom boasts an en-suite bathroom and access to a balcony that connects to the theater mezzanine. A full laundry room completes this multi-functional floor.
The flexible top level is ready to suit your needs as a full-floor primary suite or an additional penthouse entertaining space. A sun-splashed sitting room opens entirely to an expansive Brazilian wood roof deck featuring a vegetable garden, outdoor kitchen, and dining area. Enjoy alfresco entertaining with extraordinary views stretching across Red Hook Channel and New York Harbor to the Statue of Liberty and Brooklyn Bridge. Massive travertine marble slabs pave the primary bedroom, where you'll find another large deck, an oversized custom walk-in closet, and a sprawling en suite bathroom equipped with a walk-in steam shower, a freestanding black resin bathtub, and a double vanity.
