Description
Arrive at the triple-mint residence via an inviting foyer flanked by two roomy closets, immediately communicating that storage won’t be a concern, while inlaid oak floors, substantial custom millwork and impressive coffered ceilings set an elegant tone. Ahead,...Set in an outstanding full-service condominium with an enviable Upper West Side address, this meticulously designer-renovated two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment retains abundant pre-war charm alongside modern conveniences and premium finishes.
Arrive at the triple-mint residence via an inviting foyer flanked by two roomy closets, immediately communicating that storage won’t be a concern, while inlaid oak floors, substantial custom millwork and impressive coffered ceilings set an elegant tone. Ahead, the generously proportioned great room provides ample space for comfortable living and dining, lit by two wide western windows. Nearby, the beautifully renovated open kitchen is a model of both modern convenience and historically appropriate design choices. Gorgeous Ice Brown granite countertops top beautiful cabinetry, while stainless steel fixtures and appliances — by Wolf, Sub-Zero and Miele —nod to the building's 1920s roots. Lastly, the pantry, wine refrigerator and dishwater add coveted utility.
Head toward the master suite to find an immense walk-in closet and one of the home's two impressive designer bathrooms. In this en-suite masterpiece, swaths of Carrara marble surround a deep-soaking tub and a rain/wall spray shower featuring a fold-up teak bench plus heated floors round out the spa-like experience. The second nicely sized corner bedroom features an extra-large closet of its own, and another closet and in-unit washer-dryer is set conveniently between the two bedrooms. Near the foyer, another exquisite full bathroom features breathtaking stone mosaic tilework, heated floors, a frameless glass walk-in shower and sculptural vessel basin.
No detail was overlooked in this home's extensive gut renovation which included updates to the plumbing, electrical, floors and more. This smart home has automatic shades and light dimmers, as well as recessed lighting and an independent HVAC system. It’s no wonder the home was featured in Trends Magazine twice!
