Description

A truly exceptional opportunity awaits in this elegantly renovated 4-bedroom + home office, 3-bathroom duplex co-op, just half a block from Central Park. Blending pre-war charm with modern luxury, this stunning 10-room residence spans the 4th and 5th floors, offering an exquisite Parisian-style layout.

Upon entering the top-floor foyer, you're greeted by double coat closets and a striking stained-glass window above the staircase, setting the stage for elegance. The gallery hall leads to an exceptional double-wide living room, bathed in natural light from oversized south-facing windows. Flowing seamlessly into the oak-paneled dining room-complete with a charming bay window-this space is perfect for both grand entertaining and intimate gatherings.

The heart of this home is the beautifully renovated, windowed eat-in kitchen. Thoughtfully designed, it features custom floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, Bosch suite of appliances, and exquisite quartz countertops. A center island and banquette seating provide ample workspace and dining options, while a rare floor-to-ceiling pantry-spanning nearly ten feet-offers unmatched storage for every kitchen necessity. Every detail of this chef's kitchen has been custom-crafted for style and efficiency. One the same floor, a classic library boasts floor-to-ceiling built-in shelving and additional closet space. High ceilings, tree-lined street views, recessed lighting, and luminous chandeliers add to the home's refined atmosphere. Brand-new wide-plank oak hardwood floors further enhance its sophistication.

Downstairs, the private bedroom wing serves as a serene retreat. The south-facing primary suite includes a spacious sitting room and a beautifully appointed bedroom, cleverly separated by bi-fold French doors to allow for flexible use. Oversized windows, a Juliet balcony, and a charming bay window bathe the space in natural light. The primary bath is a work of art, featuring a custom-designed black-and-white origami-inspired glass mosaic, dolomite and emperador marble, satin brass fixtures by Brizo, a porcelain double-wide sink by Lacava, a custom wood vanity, a rain shower fixture, and a privacy glass-enclosed Toto toilet.  Two more bedrooms add comfort to this level, while a third flexible bedroom or office provides further versatility. A full windowed guest bath boasts decorative tiling, polished high-gloss onyx fixtures by Brizo, swooping marble countertops, a custom wood vanity, a Toto toilet, and an oversized shower, exuding understated luxury. A third windowed full bath features black-and-white pebble tiles, Nero Marquina marble, Rubinit fixtures, and another oversized shower, ensuring every detail of this residence is designed for comfort and style. This masterfully gut-renovated home was designed by Suzanne Cook, one of the Upper West Side's premier interior designers.
