This stunning high floor 2 bed/2 bath apartment beautifully marries modern luxury with prewar elegance. 10 foot ceilings, original restored hardwood flooring, and picture frame moldings are just some of the details that make this unit special. A long, well-lit entrance hallway provides access to the bedrooms quietly tucked along the interior courtyard and reveals a gracious open floor plan perfect for entertaining. Oversized bay windows drench the space in sunlight from southwest exposures.

The living room and dining room are both appointed with custom built-in cabinetry for ample storage or display and are separated by French doors, as well as a gorgeous electric fireplace and mantel.

The open kitchen design features a large breakfast peninsula, custom hardwood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances including double oven, vented gas stove, built-in microwave drawer, and dishwasher, architectural tin ceiling, wine storage, and a large separate pantry to optimize storage space.

The primary bedroom has dual custom closets with extra storage, and a beautiful en suite bath. Exquisite renovations in the hall bath and a sweet second bedroom with a Murphy bed and custom closet round out this beautiful home.

All new electrical and plumbing can be found throughout as well as a Bose surround sound system, and thoughtful lighting including chandeliers in every room.
