A Look Inside The Picture-Perfect Home
In the heart of Manhattan, Linda Evangelista’s penthouse opens up with a living room that captures a refined blend of industrial bones and tailored elegance.
Within the room, a wood-burning fireplace sits opposite a curved white sectional that stretches across the sunlit space, set against whitewashed brick walls and oversized windows that frame sweeping city views.
Model-Worthy Dining Room
Just steps away and set beneath a dramatic skylight, the dining area features a dark, round dining table surrounded by eight white linen chairs echoing the palette of the penthouse’s painted brick walls and polished concrete floors.
The natural light filtering from above creates a soft spotlight effect, while blush-toned florals in a sculptural vase bring an organic counterpoint to the clean architectural geometry.
Pass-Through Kitchen
Tucked behind the white brick wall, the pass-through kitchen features Sub-Zero stainless steel appliances scattered throughout the galley layout, while butcher-block countertops soften the industrial tone of the exposed brick walls.
A pair of framed abstract prints frames the pass-through window, where a sculptural vase of yellow flowers adds just the right amount of visual relief to the otherwise streamlined design.
At the far end of the room, the kitchen connects directly to a sunlit breakfast nook for two that overlooks the city below.
Primary Suite That Should be Featured in Vogue
The penthouse’s primary suite is set against a backdrop of painted brick and polished concrete. The bedroom balances boldness with delicate detailing through the statement chandelier, expansive mirrors, and plush textiles layered in muted tones.
En-Suite Bathroom
Just beyond, the en-suite bathroom carries subway-tiled walls with black accents framing a sleek walk-in shower, a low-sitting tub, and a vanity. The hex-tile floors and curated decor speak to the penthouse’s cohesive mix of industrial edge and curated comfort.
Children’s Suite For The Front Cover
Beneath a skylit ceiling, the children’s suite delivers a playful yet polished atmosphere designed for younger guests.
Twin beds topped with plush animals and botanical artwork create a cozy, storybook-like setting, while soft rugs and pale walls keep the space light and airy.
Just beyond the sleeping area, a dedicated study nook with twin desks and whimsical artwork invites creativity, blending function and fun.
Iconic Guest Suite
Tucked behind the kitchen, the guest suite features exposed brick walls and oversized black-trimmed windows that wrap the room in texture and warmth, while a wall-length custom shelving unit adds both style and utility to the sleeping quarters.
En-Suite Bathroom
Just beyond, the en-suite bathroom is painted in a crisp white behind a pedestal sink while subway tile with black accents lines the glass-enclosed tub-shower for a minimalist, boutique-hotel feel.
Runway-Ready Interior Amenities
In Linda Evangelista’s Manhattan penthouse, modern functionality merges with industrial flair in interior amenities that cater to both work and leisure.
Bar
A custom zinc-topped bar sits in the corner of the open-plan living area, offering a polished spot for entertaining beneath high ceilings and exposed brick.
Office
Just steps away, a minimalist office space enclosed by frosted sliding panels provides a quiet, design-forward space for creative work or private meetings, completing the home’s blend of luxury and utility.
Private Rooftop Terrace
Perched atop the penthouse is a 2,500-square-foot rooftop terrace outfitted with plush lounge seating, an outdoor kitchen, and a pergola-covered dining area.
Lush plants in elevated planters create a garden-like atmosphere, while multiple lounging zones, including sunbeds beneath oversized umbrellas, create the perfect vantage point to soak in sweeping views of SoHo.
Final Thoughts
Linda Evangelista’s decision to list her West Manhattan penthouse for $8.2 million comes amid a continued period of personal recovery and reflection.
Having completed breast cancer treatment a few years ago, the supermodel has since embraced a slower, more intentional lifestyle, focused on healing and finding joy in aging naturally.
The penthouse, located just steps from the High Line, Hudson River Park, and Chelsea’s top galleries, reflects both her enduring elegance and creative spirit. As she turns the page on this chapter, the home offers a rare chance for someone new to experience a piece of her iconic world in one of Manhattan’s most dynamic neighborhoods.
