Real Estate Want: Private roof oasis with temperature control and retractable walls

This is not hyperbole: Our mouths were actually agape as we pored over the photos of this 4-bed, 3.5-bath $8.5 million Bond Street penthouse. 

Not only are there seven skylights (all electronically controlled and shaded) 14-foot ceilings, a floating glass staircase, bespoke Italian Murano glass light fixtures...but there are TWO home offices.

There's no doorman, but how we can complain, really, when there's a 1,200-square-foot private roof oasis with trees, mood lighting, a Wolf BBQ, a dumb waiter, and a temperature controlled sunroom with retractable glass doors for year-round enjoyment.

Nice.
