Description

Grand Classic 8 renovated into 7 rooms with open views and fabulous light from nearly every window! This high floor and well-proportioned pre-war home was completely renovated down to the studs! Interior designer and architect, Penny Drue Baird, imported the finishes of this home from Paris.

The charming home is wired with a Control4 smart home automation system and speakers. There is central air throughout.

A handsome foyer leads into an expansive living room and formal dining room with magnificent herringbone wood floors imported from Paris. The living room, dining room, and master bedroom boast western light.

Experience beautiful sunsets through the over-sized Georgian-style windows. There are two wood-burning fireplaces, one located in the living room and the second located in the master bedroom. The custom eat-in kitchen contains glassos countertops and state-of-the art appliances, heated flooring, and a picture window with gorgeous city views.

There are two additional spacious bedrooms plus a staff room with washer/dryer.

The building has a 2% flip tax. A storage bin is included with the apartment and the building provides fire wood for each home.
