Description
Comprised of perfectly scaled, light-filled rooms with ceilings up to 9.75 feet and oversized windows with treetop views over both 64th Street and Madison Avenue, the expansive and flexible layout is perfect for large scale entertaining or intimate gatherings. A private elevator landing opens to the entry foyer from which all the entertaining rooms radiate. The elegant formal living room with southern exposures of 64th street is accented by Noblis French Navy seagrass wallpaper and decorative fireplace flows directly into the spacious 12-seat dining room, which is surrounded by custom lacquered walls and a built-in China closet.
An enormous great room features four large windows with Western exposures over Madison Avenue which bathe the room with natural light. The decorative fireplace, custom lacquer ceilings, faux-bois wallpaper, custom built-ins and recessed gallery lighting cultivate the perfect environment to relax and unwind.
The windowed eat-in kitchen features Calacatta marble floors, white cabinetry, Cole & Son wallpaper, a vintage industrial light fixture, and top of the line appliances including two 36’ Sub-Zero refrigerators, two LG dishwashers as well as two sinks. The kitchen offers easy and direct access to the dining room.
A luxurious corner master bedroom exists as the palatial result of combining two separate bedrooms. Surrounded by grass cloth wallpaper by Phillip Jeffries, with two en-suite bathrooms (one with walk-in shower), abundant closet space, and four oversized windows offering southern and western exposures, this bedroom offers perfect views of historic Madison Avenue buildings. An adjacent bedroom has been transformed into a custom dressing room that satisfies the needs of even the most enthusiastic fashion maven, offering floor-to-ceiling custom lacquered millwork for clothing, accessories and shoes.
Down the impressive hallway is a library nook and two sizable bedrooms, each with windowed en-suite bathrooms and walk-in closets. The distance from the master suite offers incredible privacy.
A secondary kitchen serves as an oversized laundry room with Bosch appliances, abundant storage and an adjacent maid’s room and bathroom.
Throughout the residence is ample closet space, with custom built-ins and through-the-wall air conditioning in many rooms.
