This is a RARE OPPORTUNITY to be the first occupant of the sixth floor home at the Benson and to own a brand-new, never-before-lived-in residence without having to incur any fees associated with a sponsor sale.
Designed by award-winning architect Peter Pennoyer, the sixth floor spans nearly 4,200 square feet of pristine, classic and elegant living space. Quintessential Upper East Side views of Madison Avenue and 79th Street are showcased through the oversized casement windows and accentuated by the nearly ten-foot ceilings and gorgeous Chevron-patterned oak floors throughout.
Upon arrival, a private landing and an intricately-designed metal and glass door greet you leading into the foyer, which features a beautiful barrel-vaulted ceiling. The custom design echoes throughout the home as you enter the expansive entertaining space, including the living room, dining room and library. All three rooms are lined with nearly full-height casement windows bathing the rooms with stunning western light. The gracious living room features three window bays and a custom mantlepiece framing the fireplace. The library features a corner southern window in addition, providing immense sunlight and views down Madison Avenue. The formal dining room, which can be closed off with pocket doors depending upon the occasion, is conveniently located right off of the chef’s kitchen. Featuring Christopher Peacock-designed custom cabinetry, the kitchen is centered around an oversized island with rounded corners, topped with a single slab of Calacatta Gold. State-of-the-art appliances by Sub-Zero and Miele are installed throughout the kitchen, including a six-burner range with vented, custom-designed hood, steam oven, double dishwashers and wine refrigerator. Finally, there is a chic powder room off of the foyer replete with Blue de Savoie floors, a marble vanity and Waterworks fixtures.
The bedrooms are situated along a private corridor off of the foyer. The primary bedroom boasts a glorious bay window facing west with two large walk-in closets and a luxurious ensuite, windowed bathroom. The primary bathroom features a beautiful soaking tub, large rain shower, custom vanity and separate water closet with a Toto Neorest. There are three other equally-sized bedrooms, two with ensuite bathrooms plus the library, which is accessible from the private corridor and can function as a bedroom, if so desired.
A sixth bedroom is situated near the kitchen and incudes a custom, spacious bathroom. A full laundry room with side-by-side LG washer/dryers and sink complete this home.
The Benson is a boutique condominium with only fifteen residences. Amenities include a full-time doorman and concierge, beautifully-landscaped rooftop, screening room, private spa with sauna and steam rooms, creative art studio, library, half-basketball court, fitness center, pet spa, bicycle storage and cold storage.
