The expansive living room faces north and east, with oversized windows that frame the iconic New York City skyline and flood the space with natural light throughout the day. Directly off the living area, the terrace creates a private oasis high above the city—ideal for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or quiet relaxation.
Distinguished by its character and well thought out design, this residence is a rare offering within the building. Beamed ceilings, arched doorways, and thoughtful built-ins set it apart, while details such as a stripped metal front door, vintage 1950s glass shutters in the dining area, and solid oak herringbone floors bordered in mahogany add warmth and charm.
The windowed kitchen is highly functional, featuring cherry wood cabinetry, honed black granite countertops, and a breakfast bar suited for one. Artistic Tile flooring adds a refined touch, while top-tier appliances—Sub-Zero refrigerator, Viking range, and Bosch Benchmark dishwasher—complete the space.
The king-size bedroom enjoys peaceful south and east exposures overlooking Washington Square Park. The bathroom continues the home’s character, thoughtfully finished with limestone tiles, a custom marble vanity, Waterworks fixtures, and a glass-enclosed shower. Additional features include ample storage and through-the-wall air conditioning.
