A stunning Pre-War between Fifth and Madison Avenues.

Formerly owned by legendary performer and activist Lena Horne, this home has been completely gut renovated for one to enjoy the optimal proportion and layout for flexible living. No stone was left unturned in this immaculate and pin-drop quiet one bedroom, one-bathroom home.

Welcomed by a gracious entry foyer that leads you to the meticulous kitchen outfitted with custom cabinetry, Caesarstone counter-tops, a suite of Gaggenau appliances and an abundance of storage space. Flowing into the oversized living room with formal dining areas, the double exposures overlooking the treetops complete the space.

Retire to the quiet and serene bedroom, that allows plenty of natural light. The bedroom has a wall of built-out closets along the north side and a walk-in laundry room within a large storage closet. Clean-lines, beamed ceilings and wood floors throughout.
