165 Charles Street #11

Breathtaking Western and Southern views over the Hudson River down to One World Trade, exceptional art and stylish furniture, and a vast balcony are only part of what makes this large two-bedroom apartment in the West Village a unique and elegant home. The large glass-encased living room with 10ft 9 in ceilings opens up to a balcony with a glass balustrade so that nothing obstructs the beautiful Western and Southern views through the floor to ceiling triple-paned windows. The soft tones of the brass and wood open kitchen, with its custom white Corian countertop, integrate the kitchen perfectly into the sophisticated dining and living area. The kitchen is equipped with Miele and Subzero appliances. Adjacent to the open kitchen, living and dining area is a den looking south to One World Trade and west over the balcony to the Hudson River. The serene primary bedroom suite has south-facing floor-to-ceiling windows, two huge walk-in closets and a magnificent bathroom that includes a double sink, a huge shower and a Zuma extra-deep soaking bathtub. The master bath is perfectly completed with Slab stone granite floors, custom white Corian countertop and Dornbracht fixtures. The second bedroom - also south-facing - offers a great view of One World Trade and has its own en-suite bathroom. The magnificent wide plank Wenge wood floors are partially covered by exquisite carpets. The entire apartment is tastefully furnished including its walls, featuring fine works of art. Apartment 11 comes with a large storage area in the basement. 165 Charles is a gorgeous crystalline building developed by Izak Senbahar and envisioned by the Pritzker-winning architect Richard Meier. It features 24-hour doorman, concierge service, a fitness center with infinity-edge lap pool, and a screening room with Meier designed leather seating. Its location in the far West Village just across from Hudson River Park and near the beautiful boutiques on Bleecker Street, the Meat Packing District and some of the city's best restaurants including Wallse and the Spotted Pig, speaks for itself. The apartment is rented furnished and on a short term basis. Sorry, no pets. Showings require 24 hours notice.
