Step into a gracious entry foyer that leads seamlessly into the West-facing living and dining areas, where oversized windows frame stunning views of a lush, landscaped terrace. This unique set-back terrace feels like an extension of your living space, creating a private outdoor retreat high above the city’s energy—a perfect sanctuary to relax and recharge.
The chef’s kitchen is thoughtfully positioned as the heart of the home, offering an ideal space for both intimate dinners and lively gatherings. Generously proportioned rooms throughout provide a sense of scale and comfort that is increasingly rare to find.
In the bedroom wing, the primary suite is a serene escape, complete with a spa-like five-fixture limestone bath and a dual vanity. A second bedroom, full second bath, ample storage, and the flexibility to create a third bedroom ensure that this home adapts to your needs without compromise.
Perched on a high floor of The Lyla, a boutique condominium built in 2007, this well-maintained residence benefits from a part-time doorman, 24-hour virtual doorman, bike storage, and common outdoor space. The building’s recently renovated elevator and lobby set a stylish tone, with refreshed hallways scheduled for completion in the coming months (all fully paid for by the seller).
Located moments from Union Square, Madison Square Park, the Chelsea Arts District, Eataly, The High Line, The New Whitney, and some of the city’s best dining and shopping, this home is also incredibly convenient to the Path trains and multiple subway lines (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, N, Q, R, L, and F).
This is a rare opportunity to own a sophisticated urban retreat in one of Manhattan’s most vibrant and sought-after neighborhoods.
