Description
Penthouse B is a perfect move-in ready pre-war 1 bedroom/convertible 2 bedroom with a south facing terrace in a well-run, charming, Carnegie Hill cooperative. Rare opportunity to own this light flooded jewel of 161 East 90th Street's penthouse 9th floor on a lovely brownstone block. Owned by an interior designer, this residence has all the detail and charm that you'd expect from a professional. You'll dine alfresco day and night on your private terrace, complete with a retractable awning and outdoor lighting, accessed from the living room or through the bedroom's French doors. This wonderful home offers the advantages of city living with skyline views both south and north and the perks of a country home with beautiful outdoor space.
A welcoming entrance gallery leads to the windowed dining room, which can be converted to a 2nd bedroom. Vintage doors cleverly conceal a home office. Enjoy cooking in the newly renovated kitchen with stainless appliances, quartz countertop, and porcelain backsplash and tile floor.
The spacious sun-filled living room features a wood burning fireplace and skylights with a soaring ceiling. A wall of custom-built cabinetry provides an abundance of storage.
Rest well in the comfortable bedroom looking out onto the terrace. And you'll surely appreciate the two large closets. The ensuite paneled marble floor bathroom has a glass enclosed shower and custom storage cabinet.
High ceilings, hardwood floors and thru-wall a/c complete this outstanding pre-war residence.
