Frank Sinatra’s Exquisite Penthouse in New York City

 Celebrity homes are always a big hit on the real estate market and tend to garner plenty of attention. But when the celebrity in question is the Frank Sinatra, all that attention is well deserved. Few names from the music industry and Hollywood cut across generations and continents like Ol’ Blue Eyes! Frank Sinatra’s renowned New York City penthouse is now available for sale and costing a modest $6 million ((4.388.200 Euro) (A bargain, considering the Hollywood heritage the home brings along with it). The lavish house offers sweeping views of the East River and the iconic New York City skyline.

A sparkling marble fireplace in the sitting area, a gourmet kitchen and contemporary decor accentuate the look of this fabulous penthouse, which once played host to Hollywood’s biggest and brightest stars. Featuring four bedrooms and six bathrooms along with two sweeping terraces that allow you to enjoy the view outside, it is a New York City penthouse that is all about Living it up in style. That and the nostalgic memories of one of Tinsel Town’s greatest talents!

 Frank Sinatra designed the penthouse himself and lived in it for about 11 years from 1961 to 1972. In more recent years, the place received a series of upgrades so that it may keep up with modern trends. These upgrades include a glass staircase, a gourmet kitchen and a cozy marble fireplace, all blending seamlessly into the apartment’s design without interfering with its timeless elegance.

 The Andy Warhol print of Marilyn Monroe in living room is a fitting addition to the penthouse that was famously described by Warhol himself as a “glittering grotto in the sky”

What better way to take a tour of gorgeous London! The guests will be among the first in the world to take what is considered the most powerful Rolls-Royce ever built – to the road. The hotel recommends a drive itinerary that includes the Buckingham Palace and Trafalgar Square, Whitehall to skirt Big Ben and along the Victoria Embankment to Tower Bridge. If you’d like to hear her engine purr more, an ideal route to open up the engine would be to head towards Coworth Park, Dorchester Collection’s luxury country house hotel in Ascot for lunch, a polo lesson or a spa day by the pool.

 Back at the hotel, guests will also have access to enjoy a special Wraith cocktail in Bar 45 mixed with ingredients that conjure the Wraith experience. The Wraith experience offers a choice of three ‘speeds’, of Rémy Martin Cognac – VSOP, Coeur de Cognac and XO – to suit different levels of intensity, flavor and finish. The Wraith cocktail at Bar 45 starts at £16 ($24.8) for the Rémy Martin Cognac – VSOP, £25 ($38.8) with Coeur de Cognac, and £50 ($77.7) with XO.
