BACK ON THE MARKET! Old New York grandeur! This sunny and airy two-bedroom prewar apartment has been masterfully renovated, combining comfortable elegance with functional living, and is wonderfully located just off sophisticated Sutton Place.
Featured in The New York Times’ “What I Love” column and on Open House New York’s show with Sara Gore, this special apartment has been praised for its grand-scaled living room and distinctive design details. The gracious foyer segues into an expansive living/dining room boasting southern sunlight from three oversized windows, space for multiple seating areas and large dinging table, an artfully designed custom full wall of bookshelves with a library ladder, and a stunning wood burning, black marble fireplace as its centerpiece.
The windowed kitchen was renovated to maximize storage and counter space and features custom cabinetry, granite countertops, checkerboard patterned black-and-white marble floor, and stainless-steel appliances. A private hall provides separation from the public space and leads to two bedrooms, including the master bedroom with a wall of closets and a beautifully tiled ensuite bath and a second bedroom flooded with sunlight. The hallway marble bathroom with its casement-style glass shower and stained glass window is an architectural delight.
Gorgeous refinished hardwood floors, high ceilings, in-unit full-size washer/dryer, through-wall A/C in the bedrooms and kitchen, and abundant closets (including a cedar closet) complete this not to be missed gem. A private storage bin also transfers with the sale.
Designed by storied architect McKim, Mead and White and built in 1926, this white-glove building has a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, fitness room, furnished resident-only garden/patio, central laundry, bike room, and private storage. Sought-after leafy Sutton Place location close to transportation, shopping, and restaurants. Pets are welcome and 50% financing is allowed. Pied-a-terre not permitted. A must see.
