The Bellemont 12 Residences. $67.8M Penthouse Record. Carnegie Hill's Most Exclusive Address.
Overview
The Bellemont at 1165 Madison Avenue is among the most exclusive residential addresses in Manhattan — a 13-story boutique condominium with just 12 residences in the heart of Carnegie Hill. Developed by Naftali Group with architecture by Robert A.M. Stern Architects and interiors by Italian designer Achille Salvagni, the building achieved a total sellout of $235 million across its 12 units, with the Penthouse C quadruplex selling for $67.8 million — setting the record for the highest price per square foot above 59th Street on the Upper East Side.
The interiors by Achille Salvagni bring an Old World grandeur that is rare in new Manhattan construction: 13 to 14-foot ceilings, 28-foot living rooms, 23-foot entry galleries, and oversized arched windows overlooking Madison Avenue. The half-floor, full-floor, and duplex/quadruplex penthouse configurations ensure that every residence feels like a private home rather than an apartment. Gas fireplaces and private terraces in select units complete the picture.
Our team considers The Bellemont one of the most significant new residential buildings on the Upper East Side in the last decade. The combination of RAMSA's hand-laid Indiana limestone facade, Salvagni's museum-quality interiors, and the extreme exclusivity of just 12 residences creates a product that has no real comparable in the current market. The building is sold out, but resale opportunities are among the most coveted in Manhattan.

Our Take on The Bellemont
The Bellemont is the kind of building that redefines a neighborhood's pricing tier. Twelve residences, a $235M total sellout, and a $67.8M penthouse record — these numbers tell the story of a product that found its market and exceeded expectations.
The Salvagni interiors are genuinely extraordinary. The 13-14 foot ceilings and 28-foot living rooms create spatial volumes that feel more like a private palazzo than a Manhattan apartment. RAMSA's limestone facade is flawless. And Carnegie Hill's combination of Museum Mile access, Central Park proximity, and residential calm is ideal for this buyer profile.
The building is sold out, so opportunities are limited to resale. When units do appear, they command significant premiums. This is not a building for bargain hunters — it is for buyers who understand that extreme exclusivity and museum-quality design hold their value.
