Description
Residence 2E is the ultimate one bedroom home that will satisfy even the most discerning buyer. Homes rarely become available in the building due to very low maintenance, a desirable location and just steps to Central Park. (Oh, and this apartment was once owned by one of the main stars of 'Sex in the City'.)
Everything about this home is gracious, with oversized living spaces, true home office, renovated kitchen, bath and custom closets. A private terrace overlooks 74th Street, with views of historic buildings along Madison Avenue and the 74th Street townhouses, while offering a serene place for morning coffee or an evening cocktail. Mahogany flooring flows seamlessly throughout the home offer rich warmth to the space. Both the living room and kitchen look out over the terrace, providing privacy and greenery. Enjoy a fully renovated kitchen with Miele appliances, a Liebherr refrigerator, honed black marble countertops and cabinetry by Poliform. Custom built-ins have been added to the dining area with quartz countertops, a wine refrigerator and upper glass cabinets. A custom, reclaimed wood barn door closes off the home office or nursery from the main living space. The master bathroom is one of the largest in the building and features a floating double vanity with quartz countertops, travertine marble throughout and an oversized shower equipped with full body sprays, for a true spa experience. A floor-to-ceiling Restoration Hardware medicine cabinet completes the already ample storage. The a/c units in both rooms were replaced in 2015.
