And in no place more so than notoriously pricey New York City. Well add another trophy home to the nine-figure pile: the newly listed Residence at River House, asking an eye-popping $130 million. The new offering is now New York's most expensive home for sale, trumping the S125 million Pierre penthouse and the $115 million Bloomberg duplex owned by hedge fund billionaire Steve Cohen. It's also the fourth most expensive home for sale in the U.S., behind the $135 million Crespi-Hicks estate in Dallas, the recently price-chopped $140 million Copper Beech Farm in Greenwich, Conn., and the "off-market" $150 million Owlwood estate in Los Angeles. The "Residence," as it's called on its listing page, is actually the five-story building that has served as River House's private club since 1931, when the elite co-op building first opened. The space, perched above the East River, has been leased by the non-profit River Club of New York for the duration of that time period. It's hitting the residential sale block now at the behest of the co-op board, since ongoing attempts to strike a long-term lease renewal or sale have not yet materialized, according to the Wall Street Journal. Encompassing a massive 62,000-square feet, it would become the biggest single family home in New York City — and one of the largest in the country, alongside billionaire mansions like Ira Rennert's 65.000-square foot Fair Field estate and Dmitry Rybolovlcv's 60,000-square foot Maison de L'Amitie.

It's being marketed alongside a proposed renovation plan from interior designer Tony Ingrao. EFTA_R1_00415286 EFTA01949819 An architectural rendering of the Residence at River House (credit: Trulia.com) The clubhouse property touts its own entrance, separate from the art deco building, on the 52nd Street cul-de-sac. It opens onto a private riverfront garden and houses a 62-foot indoor swimming pool, tennis and squash courts, an IMAX screening room, a wine cellar, a full spa, and a card room. Ingrao's proposed plan includes a 15,000-square foot bedroom level with a giant master suite and a level designated entirely to staff. At $130 million, the aspiring urban mansion breaks down to just under $2,100 per square foot — a relative bargain (despite being raw space) when compared to penthouse condo sales as high as $10,000 per square foot and penthouse co-op sales as high as $4,500 per square foot. The River House is located in midtown Manhattan, all the way east in a posh, predominantly pre- war building enclave called Beekman Place. Perched over the East River, the co-op stands 26 stories tall. It has long enjoyed a reputation for utter exclusivity, thanks to a picky co-op board that has over the years turned away such rich and famous hopefuls as Gloria Vanderbilt, Richard Nixon, and Diane Keaton. After Joan Crawford, married to a Pepsi exec at the time, was turned down by a board touting Coca Cola's president, rumors surfaced that the actress had the giant Pepsi sign — which still populates Queens' Long Island City — installed where River House residents would have to see it across the river every day. Just this year, due perhaps to a spate of listings languishing on the sale block, the swanky co-op began to ease its stringent policies, allowing brokers to host occasional open houses in for-sale apartments, waving the requirement for tax returns from prospective buyers, and even hiring a public relations consultant to represent the building.
