Be the first to live in this fully gut-renovated three-bedroom, three-bathroom residence that has been meticulously designed with the highest quality finishes and attention to detail. Upon entering through your private entrance, you're greeted by a bright, open concept living space that seamlessly integrates the kitchen, dining, and living room. The imported Italian kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring an abundance of cabinetry, quartz countertops and backsplash, a full-sized column refrigerator and freezer, a six-burner Viking gas range, and a Bosch dishwasher. The centerpiece of the kitchen is a striking? 9-foot? quartz island that also houses an additional full-size electric oven. The open dining area is beautifully complemented by a decorative slat wood wall, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere as it flows into the spacious living room. The living area is perfect for entertaining, featuring a built-in custom walnut bar equipped with a sink, an ice maker and a 50 bottle wine cooler. The private primary suite, located just down the hall from the main living area, is a serene retreat. It boasts luxurious walnut wood paneling with a matching bench with additional storage and a massive walk-in closet outfitted with an upscale custom closet system. The en-suite bathroom is a spa-like sanctuary, fully enveloped in marble with a double vanity and an oversized walk-in steam shower with a built-in bench. Two additional bedrooms provide ample space and privacy with custom built closets. One features an en-suite bath, while the other has a private bathroom just across the hall. Throughout the apartment, you'll find exquisite design details, including wide-plank oak flooring, central air conditioning with Nest controls, new double paned windows, custom radiator covers, and a washer/dryer. 175 East 79th Street? is a distinguished building, designed by the renowned architectural firm Schwartz and Gross in 1928. It offers a full-time doorman, live-in resident manager, laundry room, storage, and bicycle storage. Ideally located just east of Lexington Avenue, you'll be within walking distance of Central Park, world-class museums, renowned dining, high-end shopping, and easy access to transportation.
