Very spacious open layout, pristine 1-Bed home with dazzling all-day direct sunlight and open Manhattan vistas from South and Northwest facing views with luxury full-service in the heart of the UES. Architecturally significant and ingeniously renovated to the highest order by AB ARCHITEKTEN Interiors thoughtfully and meticulously to take advantage of the soaring 9-1/2 foot tall ceilings, over-sized windows, and herringbone oak floors juxtaposed with the free spirit of classic modernism and design. Published in top design journals around the world, this breathtaking apartment features a gracious and dramatic entry foyer and hallway with a new ceramic tile floor and a large walk-in closet. This leads to a bright, open kitchen with stainless steel subway tiling and artisan sculpted woods and stone, a new ceramic tile floor, a new refrigerator-freezer, a new dishwasher, and a generous windowed dining area large enough for dinner parties. The striking living room has large bay windows facing South with open city views, solid bleached maple library bookshelves, and a glass transom to allow light to dance between the living and adjacent bedroom. The airy bedroom, which can accommodate a king-sized bed, also faces South with all-day sun and has a large windowed walk-in dressing closet. The large, luminous, windowed bathroom features the best in Italian modern design with exquisite stone and wood surfaces and a spa-influenced soaking tub with a shower. Ingeniously incorporated designer lighting on dimmers surrounds the entire apartment with an ambient glow.
