Description

Welcome to Plaza Unit 508, where luxury living meets expansive outdoor bliss. The standout feature of this exquisite unit is the remarkable 522-square-foot terrace, offering an unparalleled outdoor experience. Step outside onto this terrace and enter a sprawling oasis reminiscent of a French Chateau. Overlooking a serene private courtyard adorned with a majestic fountain, this terrace offers a rare retreat exclusively for residents.

Unit 508 stands out as one of the elite five with this privilege, coveted for its accessibility, generous width, and the warmth of direct sunlight. Once the guest suite of the famed Astor Suite, where luminaries like JFK and royal families once resided, Unit 508 has been transformed into a masterpiece. Renowned designer S.R. Gambrel has left an indelible mark, crafting a world-class setting of unparalleled magnificence. The result is a fusion of modern sophistication and timeless allure, where inviting tones of comfort blend seamlessly with bespoke cabinetry, creating an ambiance of unrivaled elegance. Inside, 12-foot ceilings adorned with crown molding exude grandeur, while southern exposure bathes the space in natural light.

Herringbone wood floors lead the way to a bespoke kitchen, adorned with Nero Marquina marble countertops, Calacatta marble tile backsplash, and top-tier appliances by Viking and Miele. Central AC, automatic shades, and a washer-dryer add convenience, completing this picture of refined living. In Plaza Unit 508, luxury isn’t just a concept; it’s a way of life, epitomized by a terrace that redefines outdoor living in the heart of the city. Enjoy the vibrant surroundings of The Plaza, at the heart of New York’s glamour, with world-class shopping, dining, and entertainment.

The nearby Fifth Avenue shopping corridor, award-winning restaurants, and proximity to renowned museums and entertainment venues make The Plaza the epicenter of luxury living in New York City.
