Entertaining guru Colin Cowie is in contract to sell his penthouse duplex at 27 W. 19th St. The 3,000-square-foot, three-bedroom, 2½-bathroom unit with a fireplace, listed with Core’s Emily Beare, was asking $5.75 million.
Gimme Shelter once profiled Cowie in the apartment, which was designed for entertaining. It comes with lots of stealthy James Bond-like details, including a hidden, fully stocked wet bar, an open dining room and chef’s kitchen with tons of storage, along with hidden pocket doors to close off the dining room.
There’s also a private rooftop terrace and dumbwaiter service from the first floor kitchen.

That Bright ’n Green, a LEED Platinum six-unit condo project in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, that could be considered infamous developer — and serial code-bender — Robert Scarano’s personal redemption project, is getting some love. A second-floor, 640-square-foot studio loft with a terrace and ocean view, asking $525,000, is already in contract, as is a fourth-floor, 742-square-foot one-bedroom, which was asking $485,000. Four units are still on the market.
