Is your apartment feeling a little cramped? This historic European Castle-esque mansion at 3 Riverside Drive is going up for auction on December 20th, and it will make you reconsider what it means to live in New York City. And your career.
Totalling 11,000-square feet, The Kleeberg Residence’s interior includes 8 bedrooms, 9 and a half bathrooms, and a whole lot of marble. Sweeping staircases guide you through each of the 18 rooms, which are adorned with a combination of antique fixtures and sophisticated modern additions to make the typical Manhattanite feel like royalty. Once on the market for a whopping $40 million (and rented out for $60,000 a month), the home is now expected to be auctioned for $13 to $16 million.
You still can’t afford it...but it doesn’t cost anything to look. Check out the full gallery from Curbed to get the complete effect of the mansion’s majesty, and whatever you do, do not calculate how many times your tiny apartment could fit inside its walls.
