15 East 26th Street, Unit 12E
Description
The current owner has taken the original beautifully constructed sponsor apartment and created a wonderfully detailed, comfortable and chic home. The entrance foyer has been redesigned to allow for the elegant presentation of art, setting the tone for this special home and leading to the generously scaled living and dining room. A charming powder room is also discretely located just off this entrance gallery.
The living room, which has ideal proportions and great volume, easily allows for multiple seating areas. Floors through-out the apartment are solid walnut. Two oversized, deep set windows stream sunshine and add to the drama of the room. There is wonderful wall space for large art. The large dining area, open yet gracefully separated from the living room, is the perfect place for cozy dinners with family and friends or larger formal dinner parties and features a full wall of elegant custom built-ins, beautifully adding storage for china, glassware, silver, etc.
The chef’s kitchen with breakfast counter with Calcutta marble top has plenty of storage and is as pretty as it is practical. It features a Viking range, a vented hood, a Miele microwave and dishwasher, wine storage and a Subzero refrigerator. While open to the living spaces for an integrated, modern feel, the kitchen is also discreetly set back from the living area. A separate laundry room is located near the kitchen.
The generous master bedroom is set up as an airy suite with multiple outfitted closets including a large walk-in closet. The spa-like master bath, with detailed custom cabinetry and floor to ceiling Dolomite marble, features Waterworks fixtures, a double sink, a deep Cambridge soaking tub and a large glass enclosed shower.
There are two more large and bright bedrooms with generous closets, each with its own private bath. One bedroom is currently used as an office where the owner spared no cost to add a complete wall of built-in book shelves and storage.
15 Madison Square North is an elegant pre-war building built in 1912 and converted in 2006 to a fully renovated condominium. Balanced by the crisp, classic simplicity of an exquisite interior, the 24-hour attended lobby is a place as majestic as it is familiar with the perfect balance of classic and modern – sleek wooden paneling, custom silk Tibetan rugs and elegant sofas meet the clean lines of mirror and polished nickel. A contemporary color palette plays off traditional design, and soft lighting showcases each element of architecture, virtually incorporating aspects of the park into the lobby itself. The building has a full-time door staff, a landscaped residents’ terrace, a 2-story gym, children's playroom, a bike room and a concierge. There is an on-going reserve assessment in the amount of $42 per month.
