Natural light: the original luxury amenity. Before smart home systems and pickleball courts, there were windows, and the best homes still know how to use them. Think dramatic skylights, solariums, and floor-to-ceiling windows that turn light into a design feature. They don’t just let the light in. They give it center stage. Here are six Brown Harris Stevens listings that do exactly that.
In this European-inspired Greenfield Hill home, skylights fill the main living spaces with natural light, while soaring ceilings and exposed wood beams add architectural character.
At this nearly 4,000-square-foot Murray Hill townhouse, a glass-roofed dining area offers leafy garden views and the feeling of dining alfresco in every season.
Set on two lush acres along one of the most coveted streets in Sands Point, this 6,700-square-foot estate features a sunroom wrapped in walls of glass.
At the Irving Berlin Penthouse, the renovated eat-in kitchen features a glass solarium with doors opening onto the west side of a planted terrace. With east, south, and west exposures, the terrace offers East River views and captures both sunrise and sunset.
Natural light comes from every angle in this gut-renovated top-floor NoHo loft, thanks to three exposures, a wall of arched windows, and multiple skylights. The sky-lit dining area seats 12, while two bedrooms have operable skylights of their own.
Three exposures, 11-foot ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling windows put open sky and skyline views at the center of this nearly 3,000-square-foot duplex penthouse. Even the primary suite stretches across nearly 30 feet of windows, with southeast views toward One World Trade Center and the East River.
