Surrounded by natural light in front and back, the center kitchen is a masterpiece of endless culinary delights. A 60" Capital range offers 6 burners and an open-flame grill in the center. An oversized stainless sink and faucet, 2 Sub-Zero fridge columns and a Sub-Zero freezer column are complemented by a two-sided steel and glass temperature-controlled wine cabinet.

Cabinetry in the kitchen has been fashioned from thick rift-cut white oak planks and is juxtaposed with stainless cabinetry and counters, plus a 20' long leather-finished black granite eating island. A walk-in pantry with a wet-bar and coffee station allows you to amass every tool and ingredient you could ever need but keep them discretely hidden away. The next floor up is a magnificent master suite offering endless walls of custom closets, a large deck with incredible light accessible through another curtain wall of glass, an oversized ensuite bathroom, and a private office with leafy views.

The floor above the master has been perfectly designed to accommodate two oversized bedrooms, each with their own ensuite bath and a walk-in closet. The views just keep getting better until you reach the penthouse floor, where you will be stopped in your tracks by the city skyline on the North and East sides and a view over the rooftops on the South. Step off the elevator into a kitchenette that includes a sink, fridge and dishwasher, perfect to accommodate your entertaining needs.

A large-glass enclosed office, lounge or guest room offers panoramic skyline views, or step outside to a dramatic deck. A steel hot tub in the sky is perfectly hidden from prying eyes by the parapet wall and a screen of greenery. And of course, don't miss the garden level with an ensuite guest bedroom, a well-appointed laundry room and an oversized sitting room that doubles as a Pilates studio and full-sized gym for the current owners.

The garden is also accessible from the parlor floor, offering indoor/outdoor life with ease. There is also a full basement with poured concrete floors and hidden mechanicals for extra storage or work space.

The warm oak millwork is repeated throughout all five floors in the custom shelving, vanities, doors and moldings.

Bathrooms are a study of calming simplicity, juxtaposing warm wood vanities with a repetition of sumptuous Pietra Cardosa and Ann Sacks' Athens Silver Cream marbles that make an appearance in every bathroom as custom built-up sinks, countertops and shower surrounds.
