Beautifully Renovated, Light-Filled Prewar Three-Bedroom with Stunning Park Avenue Views
Perched on the eleventh floor, this A-line, 7 room apartment has three-bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms and enjoys excellent natural light throughout.
A semi-private elevator vestibule opens to a stylishly decorated Foyer. From the Foyer, one enters the apartment's spacious Living Room complete with custom bookshelves on either side of the woodburning fireplace. The Living Room also benefits from two oversized windows facing east onto Park Avenue. Perfect for entertaining, the Living Room flows seamlessly into the apartment's Dining Room through a set of pocket doors.
Similar to the Living Room, the formal Dining Room also has Park Avenue views through two large windows. From the Dining Room, one may access a well-placed bar complete with a wine refrigerator as well as the apartment's conveniently located Powder Room. Adjacent to the bar, is a dedicated home office outfitted with custom millwork and a large west facing window.
The apartment's windowed, eat-in kitchen has been fully renovated and features ample counter space, custom cabinetry, and high-end appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and Wolf range. The thoughtfully designed kitchen also benefits from a sizable pantry and a separate closet that discreetly hides the apartment's washer and dryer.
Across the Foyer from the entertaining rooms, the apartment's three bedrooms are accessed by a hallway to the right of the Foyer. The corner Primary Bedroom enjoys superb light and Park Avenue views from three large windows facing south and east. Furthermore, the Primary Bedroom is complemented by a large walk-in-closet and a renovated ensuite windowed bathroom. The remaining two bedrooms are generous in size, have beautiful millwork storage, closets, and south-facing windows. They share a renovated bathroom.
Additional features of this meticulously renovated apartment include new windows throughout and thermostat-controlled heating and air-conditioning.
