From the moment you enter this elegant high floor unit you are struck by brilliant sunlight streaming in through a wall of large south facing casement windows in the living room. Beautifully renovated to complement the prewar detail, the apartment combines traditional grace with modern conveniences and amenities.
The entry foyer leads directly to the grand living room which features a wood burning fireplace and hardwood floors. Also off the foyer is a large dining room which leads to a pantry with a Miele wine refrigerator and Bosch washer/dryer. Beyond is the kitchen which is outfitted with granite countertops and breakfast bar, wooden glass-paned cabinetry and glass tiled backsplash. Appliances include a Viking Range and microwave and Miele refrigerator.
The pantry also leads to a maid’s room, currently set up as a comfortable office, and a renovated bath with a full shower stall.
A hallway off the living room leads to the private residential area. The generous master bedroom enjoys the same sun-filled southern exposure as the living room and has two outfitted walk-in closets as well as a wall of built-ins. The ensuite master bath has been renovated with marble tiling and new fixtures and fittings.
The second bedroom, currently used as a den, features a wall of built-in cabinetry which is equally amenable to bedroom use. Off the hallway is a second renovated bath which is lined with Carrara marble.
