Description

Impeccably Renovated 3 Bedroom Sutton Gem! Perfection in Sutton. From the moment you enter, you will be taken by the seamless integration of style and function. This stunning impeccably renovated combination, 3 bedroom, 3 full and one-half bath, exudes “best in class” on every front. Enter through the gracious foyer, home to a double coat closet and a gorgeous powder room with a custom vanity and elegant marble and tile work.

From there you enter the open-plan space and can see the enviable chef’s kitchen, a veritable panoply of the best names in cooking. The six burner Lacanache French range, made-to-order, is not only incredibly functional it’s a work of art. It sits under the stately custom-made venting hood.

The entire kitchen is outfitted in reclaimed wood paneling for timeless elegance. All of the cabinets are outfitted with brass fixtures from the Brass Center and each cabinet is individually framed by brass. The subzero refrigerator and Miele dishwasher complete the assemblage of top-of-the-line components.

The countertops are Lincoln Calacatta from Artistic Tile, and the white marble floors from France were done by Paris Ceramics. There is also a generous island to provide more than ample cooking space. The spacious dining room area, can accommodate a large table and receives bountiful natural light which is complemented by a burnished brass and crystal glass chandelier. It seamlessly transitions into the living room which marks the beginning of the imported chevron patterned French oak floors which grace the rest of the home. Just off the dining room is a north facing bedroom with a walk-in closet.

Two additional large bedrooms are located on the other side of the apartment, accessed through an elegant gallery which boasts three additional full baths. The first of these bedrooms is west facing, and incorporates generous custom bookshelves and two well separated work spaces. The two full baths in the hallway are works of art in and of themselves. Reflecting sophisticated design, like all the baths in this pristine home, they were done by Artistic Tile and feature magnificent custom vanities. Next door, the entry to the primary bedroom is cloaked in rich slate blue suede wall-covering, which extends through the large custom walk-in closet.

The bedroom easily accommodates a king size bed and multiple dressers. The roomy en-suite bath exudes luxury. With shimmering marble throughout, it includes a double sink replete with Waterworks fixtures. The spa shower is spacious and elegantly appointed.

As throughout the entire home, the bathroom lighting is sophisticated and graceful. The entire combination and renovation were done lovingly, tastefully, and with incredible attention to detail. Meticulously selected hardware, installation of dimmable recessed lighting throughout, radiant flooring in all tiled areas, and elongating doorways to amplify perceived ceiling height are just some features. It reflects complete climate customization, with individual thermostats in each room.

Beyond that, common areas have smart thermostats for maximum control even when away from home, and the entire home has been soundproofed. There are built-ins and large closets throughout to provide unmatched storage. There is even a separate additional private storage space on the same floor adjacent to the apartment. All this in a full-service cooperative with a staff that exemplifies “white glove” service.
