345 East 77th St. #3G

As if pulled from the cover of Architectural Digest, This beautiful home has the ideal proportions for a 3 bedroom 3 bath of its size. The layout provides for formal entertaining and comfortable living. This apartment represents a unique collaboration of talents: It was designed by Francesca Bettridge, a world-famous lighting designer (web site: www.cbbld.com), and Anthony Cohn, an architect well known for his work in restoration and adaptive reuse. The ceilings rise to 9-3" in every room, adding a sense of greater dimension. There is a window in every single room, including the bathrooms, kitchen and the large walk in closet at the entry.The apartment has custom designed moldings and smart architectural details throughout, as well as three newly renovated bathrooms and a washer/dryer. A rare, and much-coveted, large and windowed walk-in closet lies well-situated at the entry, a great asset during rainy and snowy days.The apartment boasts museum-grade lighting in the living room, recessed lighting in the hallway, under cabinet and Italian decorative lighting in the kitchen, and touch dimmers throughout the apartment. The composition and play of light envelopes you and deepens the sense of serenity, something to be experienced, indeed. As can be seen in the attached floor plans, the apartment lends itself to reconfiguration to accommodate individual needs and tastes.This part of Yorkville is the site of many excellent public and private schools as well as John Jay Park. Health clubs (Equinox and NYSC) and garages lie nearby as well.
