Jennifer Lopez's Persistent Efforts to Sell Her NYC Penthouse for Nearly $25M

Jennifer Lopez, the renowned entertainer, is making another attempt to sell her exquisite New York City penthouse. This lavish property has been in and out of the real estate market since 2017 when Lopez initially listed it for a staggering $27 million. She originally acquired the apartment in 2014 for just over $20 million and has repeatedly put it up for sale, usually hovering around the $25 million mark.

Despite a slight reduction in price to $24,990,000, this duplex penthouse continues to be one of the week's most expensive listings on Realtor.com®. So, what exactly is Lopez trying to part with? The penthouse condo is situated in the historic Whitman Mansion, nearly a century old and steeped in heritage. This four-bedroom, 7.5-bath duplex apartment boasts charming prewar details, featuring Georgian architecture, stone carvings on the exterior, and grand ceilings with arched windows on the inside, making it a true spectacle.

Both the interior and exterior of the property span over 9,500 square feet. The penthouse offers four terraces that provide stunning vistas of Madison Square Park and iconic landmarks such as the Flatiron Building and the Met Life Clock Tower. Sunlight bathes the elegant living room, adjoined by a top-of-the-line kitchen with marble countertops, Miele appliances, a wine fridge, white lacquer cabinets, and a beautiful island for both seating and serving.

The primary bedroom suite embodies luxury with two separate bathrooms, two terraces, and an extensive dressing room equipped with equally spacious closets. With only four units in this white-glove building, privacy and tranquility are virtually assured. Amenities include a 24-hour door attendant, secure storage, and a key-activated elevator. Perhaps motivated by her busy West Coast life with new husband Ben Affleck, Lopez is eager to part ways with this property. For her East Coast sojourns, she can always retreat to her Hamptons estate.
