Description

A perfectly renovated, sun kissed 4.5 residence at 15 West 81st Street, the famed Emery Roth landmark building. This residence is a true corner apartment with no neighbors in any direction. This apartment features a classic pre-war layout with Southern, Eastern, and Western exposures providing beautiful sun and open sky views through 13 windows. The center entrance foyer leads you to a grandly proportioned 23' × 16' corner living room which is ideal for entertaining. The living room has both southern and open western exposures providing beautiful sunlight all day long. The mint renovated eat-in kitchen features solid wood, custom cabinetry, a classic subway tiled backsplash, and high-end appliances including a SubZero fridge, a Thermador range, and a Bosch dishwasher. The kitchen stretches into the comfortable dining alcove boasting an enormous picture window with beautiful light and quintessential New York views. The gracious layout provides a complete separation between the living areas and the bedroom wing. The massive corner primary suite measures 19' × 14' and boasts sunny but quiet southern and eastern exposures. A custom built walk-in closet like no other measures nearly 6 x 9 feet accommodating the largest of wardrobes. The windowed en-suite bath has been superbly renovated featuring floor to ceiling travertine style stone with a stylish glass in lay pattern, an oversized rain shower with a warm sandstone floor, a custom vanity, radiant heat floors and the best chrome fixtures and finishes. The generous second bedroom measures nearly 16 x 12 ‘ and boasts sunny southern exposures and an incredible outfitted walk-in closet where the washer/dryer is located. The windowed en-suite bath is perfectly renovated featuring travertine, a custom vanity, radiant heated flooring and a deep soaking tub. Other features of this residence include new solid oak floors throughout, solid wood doors with stylish hardware, through the wall AC, new windows, and of course the best elements of a pre-war home including high, beamed ceilings, grand proportions, and an abundance of closet space. 15 West 81st Street is a long-established white glove coop with a reputation for stellar service and is located on one of the most sought- after blocks in Manhattan just off Central Park West and across from the Museum of Natural History and the Rose Planetarium. Modern building amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness center, bike room, playroom, and separate storage rooms for owners. 50% financing permitted and a 2% flip tax payable by the purchaser.
