The east-facing primary suite is a tranquil sanctuary with breathtaking, direct Central Park views, two large, custom walk-in closets, a large storage closet, and a spa-like five-fixture bath wrapped in Gaudi marble and Biancone stone. The secondary bedroom offers equally stunning park views, a custom closet, and a private en-suite bath, delivering comfort with a refined edge. A renovated kitchen adds warmth and texture to the sleek, contemporary interiors, while crown molding and abundant custom storage complete this sophisticated residence.
