Description
The main level offers an open layout ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. A spacious 29-foot...Step into this truly unique Upper East Side loft and you're immediately welcomed by an abundance of natural light. Dramatic loft-style ceilings, a striking 17-foot gallery wall, and oversized floor-to-ceiling windows set the tone for this bright and expansive duplex residence-currently configured as a convertible two-bedroom with 1.5 bathrooms with approximate interior square footage at 1,250SF.
The main level offers an open layout ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. A spacious 29-foot living area is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and opens to a private balcony. Design details throughout include exposed brick, recessed lighting, and a ceiling fan, along with a beautifully reimagined powder room featuring a Neo-Metro stainless steel pedestal sink, Murano glass lighting, and designer wallpaper. The home has been thoughtfully upgraded with espresso-stained maple hardwood floors, custom motorized blackout shades, and curated wall coverings.
The eat-in kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring custom cherry cabinetry, a center island with seating, granite countertops, and a built-in bar. Additional highlights include a smoked mirror backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, Murano glass pendants, a garbage disposal, and high-end appliances.
A sculptural spiral staircase leads to the upper level, overlooking the living space below. This open lofted area, complete with mirrors and built-in cabinetry, is flexible for use as a home office, den, or guest area. The south-facing primary suite is tranquil and sunlit, offering a private balcony with southern garden views, a mirrored accent wall, built-in vanity, generous storage, wall-to-wall carpeting, and an oversized walk-in closet. The en-suite bath is finished in Italian marble and includes custom mirrored cabinetry, a ThermoMasseur soaking jacuzzi tub, and a Toto toilet.
The building has recently undergone renovations, including a refreshed lobby, elevator, and hallways, and offers a live-in superintendent, laundry room, and audio/video security. Pets and subletting are permitted with board approval. Ideally located on the Upper East Side, you're just moments from so much, including Central Park, the 4/5/6 and Q trains, Whole Foods, Equinox, and some of the neighborhood's best dining and shopping.
