Description

Designed by Stuart Disston of the renowned architectural firm, Austin Patterson Disston, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom condominium features exceptional views and light, an open floorplan and top-quality finishes.

The great room is the nexus of the home, where an open kitchen flows into the dining area and large living room. Unobstructed eleventh floor views frame the Beresford to the east and extend past Central Park treetops and the Upper East Side. Ceiling height is 9'9".

The windowed kitchen has Carrara marble countertops, ample custom storage drawers, a deep farmhouse sink, double-height cabinets and an island for casual dining. Appliances are by Bosch and GE Monogram.

Off the great room through a private hall is the master suite: the main bedroom, a walk-in closet, and a roomy bathroom with two windows, double sinks, Carrara marble counters, and an extra-large shower stall with Rohl fixtures. The bathroom flooring is a gorgeous basketweave marble.

The superior details and finishes extend to the second bedroom and bathroom on the opposite side of the apartment, past the entry foyer. Bath finishes include a deep soaking tub and hexagon marble on the floor.

Oak floors, crown moldings, and a Bosch washer and dryer complete the home.
