Description

Exquisitely Appointed, Designer 3 Bedroom, 3.5 Bath Prewar Duplex with High Ceilings has been Custom-Built from scratch to offer the most Intricate Details and Intelligent Layout Imaginable in this One-of-a-Kind Split-Level Residence. This Museum Quality Home underwent a Meticulous and Extensive Renovation, with Grand Entry Foyer, Proportional Room Sizes (designed with a planned furniture layout), Oversized Windows with Elegant Trim, Paneling, Custom-Designed Crown/Baseboard Moldings, Accent Lighting, and Rift White Oak Flooring (expertly laid throughout in a Chevron Pattern). Fully integrated, recessed in-ceiling Sonos Speakers with Sonos Sound bars, Subwoofers and Recessed Ceiling Lighting are built into every room.

Custom Wall Sconces, Pendant Lights (over the Kitchen Island), and Stairwell Chandelier were all designed and commissioned to enhance the overall design aesthetic. In-home Washer/Dryer is installed beside many Closets with fully Outfitted Storage and Ample Shelving. Glass Transoms are built over doorways casting additional light to the hallways.

Hard-wired, Fabricated Motorized Window Treatments (controllable by remote or smartphone) are installed in all windows throughout. No detail or expense was overlooked in this Elaborately Designed and Transformative Home.

An Open Eat-In Kitchen with Oversized Island (comfortably seating six) is the Heart of the Corner Living and Entertaining Space. Thoughtfully designed to be a Visual Centerpiece, the Kitchen has been created symmetrically around the Custom Cabinetry, Centered Sink with Dornbracht Faucet Suite, Cabinetry Lighting, and Matching Door Panels.

Abundant Storage and Pantry Space were mindfully designed to tuck everything out of sight. Appliances include integrated 36" Double Door Signature Kitchen Suite (SKS) Fridge, Fisher Paykel 30" Induction Range, Cabinetry-Integrated Fisher Paykel Triple Rack Dishwasher and U-Line Wine Fridge.

Three and a Half Bathrooms are appointed with Waterworks, Samuel Heath, and Franz Viegener fixtures, and Full Floor-to-Ceiling Slab Porcelain Wall Coverings have been seamlessly aligned in all of the shower stalls to replicate the beauty of natural stone (without grout lines), making the shower areas very elegant to behold, and easy to clean.

Split Bedrooms on the Upper Level have been customized to include Built-In Furniture that Converts in multiple ways to allow for various uses of each room. The Primary Bedroom has a motorized retractable TV that remarkably descends from the ceiling.

Custom Closets with Mirrored Doors reflect light and create a dressing area. Secondary Bedroom has Double Murphy Bunk Beds that convert between Twin Beds, a Desk, and a Couch, allowing for flexible sleeping arrangements of up to 4 people. Hidden TV also drops down and pivots electronically on an arm controlled by remote.

Down the Architectural Staircase, a Guest Suite or Nanny Suite with Separate Bedroom/Bathroom and fully functioning Kitchenette on the lower level, benefits from its own private entry/egress off the 7th Floor.

Serving as a 3rd Bedroom with ensuite Bathroom, a custom-designed and motorized murphy bed controlled by remote, with abundant shelving and bespoke lighting doubles as a Den/Library/Playroom with a sofa and a tv, allowing for the lower level to transform or evolve as needed.

On a Prime Upper Westside block, this Full Service, Beaux-Arts, Well Established Coop enjoys easy access to Central Park, the quaint shops and restaurants on Columbus Ave, Luxury Fitness Destinations, the Imax Movie Theatre on W 68/Bway, Lincoln Center, Morton Williams, the Apple Store, Crosstown Buses and Express Subways. Pied-a-terres are Welcome, 1 Dog allowed per apt (certain breed restrictions), and Subletting is permitted indefinitely after 5 year residency requirement.
