A large corner great room is a designer’s delight and features a wood burning fireplace, Western and Southern exposures, and a private balcony - one of four throughout the home.
A gorgeous dual-entry open kitchen has sliding glass doors to create an airy and welcoming space for cooking and entertaining. The kitchen is equipped with a center island, a La Cornue stove, in-fridge Miele espresso machine, wine fridge, and recessed lighting. A powder room is conveniently located adjacent to the beautiful kitchen.
The primary suite is quietly tucked on the north end of the home, featuring a large dressing area, as well as a separate walk-in closet and dressing room, and an en-suite windowed 5-fixture marble bathroom. Beautiful large glass doors open to a private balcony over East 61st Street.
A sliding door creates a separate private and purposeful wing for the two secondary bedrooms - both of which are well-proportioned, have wall-to-wall carpeting, built-in desks, and plenty of closet space. Each bedroom has an en-suite bath, one of which is windowed with heated floors.
Quietly tucked behind the kitchen in its own corner of the apartment is the 4th bedroom which is currently used as a home office. It too has its own balcony and full ensuite windowed bath, with a separate entrance into the private vestibule.
The home is equipped with automatic shades, a “smart” closet, hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, in-unit washer / dryer, and an abundance of closet space. 40 East 61st Street is a pre-war doorman condominium with a live-in super.
