Upon entering this beautifully renovated apartment, you are greeted by an elegant entry hall with black and white marble floors and a splendid staircase ascending to the private bedroom wing above. The entertaining spaces radiate off the entry foyer, the centerpiece of which is the dramatic living room, with a 19’ coffered ceiling and a massive leaded-glass studio window facing east. Ideally designed for entertaining, the classically proportioned room features a massive fireplace with a handsome wood mantel and a matching ornate wood door-frame, as well as ample space for multiple seating areas. A recessed projection screen can lower from the ceiling and transform this magnificent space into a perfect screening room. Adjacent to the living room is a light-filled and paneled library, lined with built-in shelving and cabinetry. The library enjoys corner exposures facing west across Lexington Avenue, to open-sky views over the Park Avenue Armory, as well as north.
The gracious circular flow of the entertaining rooms is completed by the double doors off of both the entry hall and the library, leading to the elegant formal dining room. The dining room has hand-painted de Gournay wallpaper in a bamboo pattern, western sky views over the Armory, and built-in cabinetry. Adjacent is the spacious chef’s kitchen, renovated in a timeless style and filled with light, featuring both marble slab and stainless steel counters, a classic tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances including a Sub Zero refrigerator, six-burner FiveStar range, and Fisher-Paykel DishDrawers. A Miele washer and dryer are on the opposite side of the kitchen and are cleverly concealed, as is the service elevator, which ideally opens directly into the kitchen. Across the entry hall and adjacent to the living room is a charming study with extensive built-in cabinetry. Completing the lower level are a walk-in coat closet and a guest powder room.
Ascend the handsome stairs to a gracious landing, with a Juliet balcony overlooking the living room, and a hallway connecting the home’s private bedroom quarters. Each bedroom occupies a separate wing of the upper level. The corner primary suite, created by combining two previous bedrooms, features a spacious bedchamber, two walk-in closets, and an en-suite windowed bath - complete with a bathtub, large separate shower, generous vanity, and a water closet. Down the hall is a secondary bedroom with an en-suite bath, while across the stair hall is a third bedroom and third full bath. Notable features throughout the apartment include hardwood floors and dual zone central air-conditioning. A private storage unit conveys with the apartment.
