Description

Selene, located at 100 East 53rd Street, offers graciously scaled residences and sophisticated design by renowned architects, Foster + Partners with interiors in collaboration with AD100 recipient William T. Georgis. The meticulously refined residences reflect a level of craftsmanship rarely evidenced in new development. Located between Lexington and Park Avenues, Selene is adjacent to the iconic Seagram Building and at the epicenter of luxury couture ateliers, midtown's famed culinary destinations, and high-end residential towers.

Residence 26A is a 1,638-square-foot sprawling two bedroom, two-and-a-half bath Sky Collection home with ceiling heights up to 10'10" offering elegant living at its best. Stylish undulating floor-to-ceiling windows presents an open light-filled great room with views to the North East and West. A thoughtfully designed split bedroom layout ensures a very private primary suite replete with custom-built closets and a spa-inspired en suite bath.

The Foster + Partners-designed open chef's kitchen features wire-brushed oak cabinetry with integrated pulls and bronze detailing, cabinet-fronted Gaggenau stainless steel appliances, and Italian Carrara marble knife edge countertop and backsplash with embedded ventilation and LED lighting - a true culinary delight that allows for seamless entertaining.

Inspired by its neighboring Modernist masterpieces, the 63-story Selene is composed as a timeless contemporary landmark standing alongside the iconic Seagram Building and Lever House. Its signature glass facade enhances the residences with cascading natural light.

With a distinct service program focused on self-care and wellness and four floors of purposeful and impressively designed amenity salons, Selene sets itself apart. Every lifestyle offering is thoughtfully considered and composed to rejuvenate and relax. Public spaces designed by AD100 recipient William T. Georgis are appointed with a museum quality art collection, anchored by an installation in the Fireside Lobby by celebrated artist Rachel Feinstein. Amenity spaces span four floors and are naturally lit by floor-to-ceiling glass walls. The 60-foot-long garden sanctuary swimming pool is surrounded by an arbor of trees. The enfilade of wellness spaces and lounges including The Spa, Fitness and Yoga Salons, Billiards Lounge, Conference Room and Library are finished with slatted oak and smokey granite. The Michelin-starred Le Jardinier restaurant-helmed by Chef Alain Verzeroli and the first New York City restaurant designed by AD100 recipient Joseph Dirand-is just an elevator ride away.

This elegant 1,638sf two bedroom, two-and-a-half bath residence offers great open views with North, East and Western exposures. A gracious entry foyer opens to a light-drenched corner living room and dining area with an open chef's kitchen. A thoughtfully designed split bedroom lay out ensures a very private primary suite replete with custom built closets and a spa-inspired ensuite bath.
