Dream Homes

Flatiron

$4.995 million

This "masterpiece" of an apartment -- a 4,109-square-foot condo with four bedrooms and 4½ bathrooms, plus a balcony -- was recently renovated with "no detail or expense spared" (and the benefits, if not necessarily the savings, can be passed on to you). The home, with direct elevator access, features a mix of antique decor and modern amenities. There's lots of gold and silver leaf in the living room. And the media room offers both "an antique Asian cabinet wet bar" and a surround-sound system with "a hydraulic lift for the screen and speakers."
