Bloomberg’s ex relists One Kenmare penthouse after $1.5M price hike

The Mayor’s ex must really believe in the recovery of luxury real estate prices in New York City.

After a one-and-a-half-year hiatus, Susan Bloomberg’s One Kenmare Square penthouse has returned to the market with a new broker and a $1.5 million price bump.

The former wife of Mayor Mike Bloomberg, whose primary residence is a 26-acre horse farm in North Salem, N.Y., is now asking $13 million for her 4,472-square-foot spread, which comprises the entire top floor of the 210 Lafayette Street condominium and has some 4,031 square feet of outdoor space.

The “double penthouse,” as the listing by Halstead Property broker Arlene Weidberg describes it, is actually two units for which Bloomberg paid roughly $10.3 million in 2006. Together, they have five bedrooms, a private rooftop, and two of pretty much everything else: kitchens, terraces, fireplaces and powder rooms. The home also has 12-foot ceilings and all the comforts of the trendy Andre Balazs and Cape Advisors-developed building in which it’s located, including top-of-the-line appliances, electronic window shades, a 24-hour concierge and fitness center.

The penthouse was originally listed for $11.5 million in 2009 by then-Brown Harris Stevens broker Dennis Mangone, but was pulled from the market last February.

Weidberg declined to comment on the listing. Bloomberg wasn’t immediately reachable for comment and her attorney declined to comment.
