14 DAY TRIAL // If you happen to have about $42 million (€32.5 million) lying around, you could consider investing in real estate – the kind that’s only fit for a true “rock star.” Jon Bon Jovi has listed his SoHo penthouse, which he bought in the summer of 2007.
The asking price is almost double what he paid for it at the time but, as Real Estalker notes, the penthouse now comes with major modifications and is completely furnished.
Moreover, it’s about $3 million (€2.3 million) less than what the star was asking in 2011, when the penthouse was first listed for sale.
The e-zine also has photos of the place and, just as you’d expect for this kind of money, it looks stunning.
The penthouse measures 7,452 square feet, and has 5 bedrooms, 5 full and 2 half bathrooms, 2 fully equipped kitchens, and lots and lots of open space and natural light.
With a view to die for, most rooms in the penthouse have floor-to-ceiling windows, which allows for plenty of natural light to come in.
The location, of course, is also very important.
“Key lock elevator opens directly into the five bedroom penthouse's upper level main foyer off of which are coat closets and an itty-pitty powder room,” Real Estalker writes.
“Floor to ceiling windows wrap around four sides of the massive main living/dining space that includes a mirrored fireplace and access to both the posh penthouse's expansive roof terraces that together total more than 3,100 square feet of fully landscaped exterior living space,” the e-zine adds.
“The penthouse has two U-shaped kitchens, one off the main living space on the upper level and the other slightly smaller one off the 1,100-plus square foot so-called ‘Great Room’ on the lower level. Both kitchens are equipped with custom cabinetry and top of the line appliances, natch, but, oddly enough, neither is much bigger than what one might safely expect to find in a mid-priced suburban tract house,” the same media outlet notes.
