Trevor Noah Sells His Manhattan Penthouse with Roof Terrace

South African comedian, writer, and political commentator Trevor Noah is saying goodbye to his job of hosting “The Daily Show”. And at the same time, he is saying goodbye to his Manhattan penthouse that he has just listed with Nick Gavin of Compass.

Trevor Noah’s Manhattan penthouse spans two floors and has a total surface of 3,596 sq. ft. The three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath Manhattan penthouse is located in the Stella Tower, a 1928 Art Deco building designed by architect Ralph Walker (the building is named after the architect’s wife). The tower was originally built as the New York Telephone Building but in 2014 the building was transformed into a luxury apartment complex.

Trevor Noah completely gutted the apartment when he bought it. The multi-year renovation completely transformed the floor plan. The master bedroom was moved to the lower floor to create a large open-plan living, kitchen, and playroom.

The upper floor houses an amazing open-plan living space with a kitchen/dining room and a play room. Arched doorways create separate zones while still maintaining a big flowing space.
