Radcliffe plans to rent the property out for $20,000 per month until he moves in just before the Broadway run of Peter Schaffer's hit play 'Equus' - in which Radcliffe strips off nude -starts in September 2008.
Raccliff's letting agent, Chris Pomeroy, described the property designed up architect Jean Nouvel, as one of the "sexiest new developments" in the area.
The 1,843 sq ft penthouse is on the fifth floor of a 13-storey glass-walled building in trendy SoHo. The building has a 50ft swimming pool, steam room and "hotel-like" concierge service.
Within the privacy of his penthouse, the young British actor has a 37ft by 19ft "Great Room," two bedrooms, three bathrooms and floor-to-ceiling windows.
According to property records, the flat was snapped up by Gilmore Jacobs Ltd, the company set up in 2001 by Radcliffe's parents when he made his debut as the young boy wizard in the first Harry Potter movie.
After getting control over his fortune on his 18th birthday last July, Daniel claimed he didn't "have any plans to buy anything extravagant", adding: "The things I like buying are things that cost about $10 - books, CDs and DVDs."
