The largest penthouse at Watchcase, the luxury condominiums and townhouses in Sag Harbor Village, has sold.

The Michael & Eileen Himmel Trust is the new owner. (The trust sold 12 Glen Road Court in Wainscott for $3.8 million earlier this year.) The latest asking price for the 3,297-square-foot penthouse with interior design by Steven Gambrel was an even $4 million—it was being offered at a reduction—while the final sales price was $4,016,000.

Located on Church Street and known as Penthouse 314, the unit has three bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms and a private 1,582-square-foot rooftop terrace with wood decking, plantings, a fire pit and a powder room.

The high-ceilinged penthouse is outfitted with high-end finishes, walls of glass, two fireplaces and several entertaining spaces. The open concept great room encompasses the L-shaped kitchen. Also on the main level find a solarium, south-facing terrace and two bedrooms. The upstairs has a second master suite with three walls of windows, a fireplace and a walk-in closet.

Also among the amenities are an elevator and a private underground garage plus an additional parking space. All Watchcase owners receive concierge services and access to a saltwater pool, a fitness center, an events lounge, the “Grand Lobby Living Room” and “The Vault Bar,” with a two-sided fireplace.

Deborah Srb of Sotheby’s International Realty—the firm took over Watchcase sales last summer—represented the penthouse.
