Description

This unique and beautiful 2000 sq feet (+1200 sq feet roof garden) duplex penthouse with solid wood floors and black marble countertops occupies the last 2 floors of a Chelsea condominium. This boutique condominium with only six per floor apartments shoes solid financials and low maintenance for this neighborhood. The first floor of the apartment features king size and queen size bedrooms, a jacuzzi, a kitchen equipped with Wolf appliances, a laundry room with washer and dryer, and a spacious living / dining area with a wood-burning fireplace. The second floor can be used as a den or a king size bedroom and opens on two incredible green gardens edged with ape-wood fences, created by landscape designer Christian Devernois and featured in an issue of ‘NewYork magazine’. Totalizing 1200 sq feet, they evoke a beach bungalow, and the trees provide shade and act as noise buffers. Facing the empire state building, purple Beech, Swamp Oak, Paper Birch, blue Atlas cedar, European Larch, and Swiss pine surround a fountain(*) by artist Serge Besancon with pink marble slabs from the quarry that supplied Versailles grand Trianon and a copper relief of two water maidens. In the south garden you will find willows oak, corsican black pine, river birch and a male Ginko. Minimum 10% downpayment required. Public parking is available next door with monthly and hour fees.

(*) Although the fountain is not attached to the property, its sale can be negotiated. Listing courtesy of Keller Williams NYC ...
