Exquisite design meets functionality and comfort in this fully renovated six room home (with terrace!) steps from Central Park. Sundrenched with open views to the east and a glorious view of the reservoir west, this high floor two-bedroom home fuses original prewar details like high beamed ceilings with state of the art luxury like radiant heated bathroom floors and thermostatically controlled thru-wall AC. The wood burning fireplace has been converted to gas for cleaner, simpler fireside enjoyment. The Formal Dining Room opens to an expansive entertaining space. A luxurious Master Bedroom suite with adjoining Master Bath features two oversized custom fitted walk-in closets and double shower. The 20’ long and extra wide Cook’s Kitchen clad in luminous slabs of white Carrera marble is equipped with Subzero, Viking professional range with hood and Bosch dishwasher. A separate laundry area, pantry, versatile sitting room and powder room are in the southernmost part of the residence. Touches of architectural whimsy prevail including New Orleans French doors, restored antique hardware, salvaged French limestone mantle and maple framed windows with custom Biedermeier stain. Beautiful millwork includes curved door moldings, HVAC enclosures and illuminated niche for art with excellent hidden storage throughout. A semi-private elevator landing, new oak wood floors, smart pocket doors and stone covered window sills complete the picture. The monthly maintenance of $2692 is unusually low; a $973.69 monthly assessment runs through 2018.
