Published in New York Magazine, this truly unique private penthouse has two distinct structures. A beautifully curated main living space with bedroom and full bath plus a rare freestanding rooftop cottage surrounded by multiple levels of lush gardens and terraces.
The epitome of relaxed elegance and sophistication, the main living space has bright corner exposures from 14 casement windows, beamed ceilings and antique barnwood wide-plank oak floors. A wood burning fireplace is centered between custom window seats with extensive built-in bookshelves in the dining and living areas and a cleverly concealed TV cabinet.
The primary bedroom has been curated with a custom designed leather headboard beautifully framed by refined millwork providing built-in nightstands, storage and shelving for ample books and collections. There is also a very generous fully fitted-out closet. Adjacent to the bedroom is the handsome full bathroom equipped with a wide trough stone sink, and a large shower with dark verdigris hand-glazed tiles and patinated brass fixtures. This bath has been creatively designed with a pocket door allowing for dual function as a windowed powder bath with custom-made washbasin vanity.
Clean and modern, the open kitchen has top of the line appliances with jet-black beadboard cabinetry and island all topped with 4 inch thick slabs of vintage marble reclaimed from Independence Hall in Philadelphia and open upper shelves for dishware display. The kitchen casement windows expand across offering views upon the lush greenery and the much-fabled cottage. Direct access leads onto the idyllic garden terrace designed by Harrison Green. The outside banquette dining area along with an outdoor TV serve as a cozy area perfect for casual dining or enjoying one’s morning coffee.
The distinctly separate freestanding wood frame cottage, so rare and one of very few in Manhattan, functions as a guesthouse 2nd bedroom plus a writer’s studio. It has high 10ft peaked ceilings, a large picture window with built-in storage and shelving. Tranquil and removed, one feels transported to a countryside secret garden rather than an urban penthouse making it the perfect place for inspiring creative minds.
One floor up, the rooftop garden paradise has been landscaped with mature trees, blooming Hydrangeas and herbs of rosemary and lavender with panoramic views of iconic NYC. A true entertainer’s haven day or night with multiple areas for lounging or hosting dinner parties alfresco. Enjoy watching movies under the stars from the outdoor cinema. Fully equipped with automatic irrigation systems, lighting and sonos.
Conveniently located in the center of the Universe! Includes 2 extra-large storage spaces, bicycle storage, flexible and pet-friendly co-op.
