The world’s richest human being officially declared his new civil status as “single” in April of this year. In line with the confirmation of his divorce with ex-wife MacKenzie Tuttle Bezos, he started looking for a new home in the City of Dreams. With a net worth of more than $100 billion, he surely can afford any New York apartment that he likes.

Finding the Perfect Home

It seems like the search is over for Amazon’s chief executive officer as he reportedly purchased not just one, not two, but three Manhattan penthouse apartment units at 212 Fifth Avenue in New York. The deal includes a three-story condominium and two additional units located right below it.

Bezos main residence, called The Crown, spans over 10,079 square feet of living space that occupies the 22nd, 23rd, and 24th floors of the building. It has five bedrooms and five bathrooms inside. The triplex highlights a private elevator and multiple verandas with an over-looking view of Madison Square Park.

The outdoor area is approximately 6,000 square feet wide, providing a perfect cityscape view. The third floor alone has a 950-square-foot watch tower with sightings of the Empire State Building, Flatiron Building, and the World Trade Center.

The interior of the apartment is undoubtedly fit for the globe’s wealthiest person. The flooring is a combination of solid oak and marble. The amenities include a theater room for entertainment and a fitness center for his physical activities. It also has futuristic features such as a game room and a golf simulator.

The Crown’s price-tag was $58 million in the listing, although, reports didn’t confirm the exact amount Bezos has paid for it. Together with the two other units, adjacent to The Crown, he paid a total of $80 million. That makes Bezos whole property to be a total of 17,000 square feet with 12 bedrooms.

The interior of the penthouse is a state-of-the-art architecture. It is very exquisite with plenty of giant windows to showcase the beautiful Manhattan view. The custom kitchen has a marvelous Ash Millwork design, marble table tops, and high-end Gaggenau appliances. It also has an elegant library with a marble and glass chimney. The features of the entire house suggest a very relaxing yet contemporary vibe.
