The Whitby at 325 West 45th St. #808

EXTRAORDINARY, PRE-WAR, 2BR/CONV 3
Take advantage of this very special opportunity to make your home in a beautifully renovated and expansive 2BR/2bath with dining room in one of the most iconic buildings in Midtown West. This corner, high floor unit’s layout is also flexible enough to add a third bedroom or be opened up to create a massive, 35’ great room ideal for both living and entertaining. It is flooded with glorious sunlight boasting 11 windows with Southern, Northern and Eastern exposures. It also has retained its exquisite, pre-War details, including high, beamed ceilings, crown moldings and original oak floors refinished to an elegant ebony sheen.

A long and dramatic entry hallway can easily accommodate a library wall, hanging art gallery or efficient home office. You are then welcomed into the generously sized, formal dining room with its oversized windows and Southern exposures filtering extraordinarily beautiful light and offering views of the modern city skyline, strikingly glamorous at night. The windowed kitchen has been gorgeously renovated with a Gaggenau cooktop, Verona oven, custom Northland refrigerator and microwave. Caesarstone counter tops, custom cabinetry, a glass tiled backsplash and a porcelain floor enhance the design. The gracious living room is separated from the dining room by another hallway and is bathed in Eastern light. It is also outfitted with a magnificent, custom-designed, built-in wardrobe providing endless opportunities for storage. The large and serene master bedroom suite pampers with a renovated, windowed bathroom with marble pedestal sink, stunning, mosaic floor tile and a vintage bathtub with rainforest showerhead. A walk-in closet completes the space. The spacious second bedroom is Southern exposed and offers quiet privacy and a wall-length, custom wardrobe. The guest bathroom with bathtub is also windowed and has been thoughtfully modernized.

The Whitby, recently profiled in the New York Times, was designed by the esteemed architect Emery Roth (The San Remo, The Beresford) and completed in 1923.
