Description

This exceptional two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence at 45 Christopher Street, a distinguished Bing & Bing pre-war condominium, captivates with impeccable design and unmatched quality. Decorated by interior design firm Gregory Rockwell Interiors-whose work is celebrated in Architectural Digest-apartment 2E reflects a 20th century modern aesthetic of understated sophistication and admiration in equal measure.

The welcoming foyer with custom color-blend wood floors and expansive closets introduces the climate-controlled interior, maintained by a trio of split-system AC units for optimal comfort. The sun-drenched living room enjoys southern exposure and includes dual primary suites.

City-proof windows, equipped with sun-reducing film, safeguard your tranquility, art, and furnishings. Central to the living area, a redesigned mantle and hearth surround the operational wood-burning fireplace and are flanked by textured plaster walls by artisans at Kamp Studios.

The spacious eat-in kitchen is complete with a custom upholstered banquette, top-tier appliances including a Sub-Zero fridge, Wolf gas range, Miele dishwasher, and Marvel wine storage. Bespoke cabinetry, strategically illuminated, along Thassos white marble countertops and backsplash further elevate this sophisticated space.
