Designer renovated stunning junior one bedroom located at the Marais at 520 West 23rd Street is now offered for sale. The gorgeous apartment has been featured in several design publications and is being presented for sale virtually entirely furnished. Located on a high floor facing south, this home is graced with an abundance of natural light and dramatic open city views from its private, generous balcony. This home has undergone many renovations and custom upgrades that truly make for a spectacular full-time residence or ideal pied-a-terre.

Ideally proportioned, Apartment 12A offers an open plan layout, yet with generous and distinct individual spaces for entertaining, cooking, and sleeping. In the main living room, you will find beautiful white hardwood floors that open up the entire space and allow light to further reflect throughout. It is around every corner of this picture-perfect home that you will continue to find designer touches, from the addition of wall sconces above the sofa, a rustic wood paneled accent wall, to the tucked away built-in desk just near the sleeping area. You will find there is a place for everything you need in the city. The sleeping alcove comfortably accommodates a queen size bed and further enjoys the southern sun and open city views. Just off of the alcove is your private terrace, a perfect place to plant flowers, read a book and enjoy a Zen moment in Manhattan with interesting views of the many landmarks of Downtown Manhattan.

A proper cook's kitchen has the storage and prep space of a much larger apartment. The wood cabinetry has been customized in a high-gloss blue lacquer accented with crown moldings and contemporary chrome hardware & faucet. There are full size stainless steel appliances, beautiful white Corian counters and a marble tile backsplash that has been extended to the ceiling. Keeping the kitchen light and open, there is a large pass through breakfast bar to the main living room.

The updated bathroom features all new modern chrome fixtures, tile work and cabinetry and features a soaking tub to unwind after a long day.
