960 Sterling Pl. #1N

Scandinavian Style Studio lives like a full house. This remarkable renovation has FLOW and is located in a well-run, community-focused, pre-war building. Perched on an elevated 1st floor, it overlooks the building’s verdant garden and is designed like a vacation.

Upon entering, one is struck by the high level of quality and detail in the renovation. The entry hall features ample storage and is adorned with Nautical Star onlays, which give a nod to the building’s original period details. From the French Legrand switches to the arched plaster ceilings, there is so much to enjoy.

The spacious, eat-in, Scandinavian-style custom kitchen features Concrete Caesarstone counters, voluminous storage through modern cabinetry, and vibrant teak open shelving with dimmable under-mount lighting. A retro stainless steel SMEG range and Bosch dishwasher add to the style and convenience. The cork floor provides great texture and ergonomic qualities, feeling great on the feet and back. With the installed water filter, you will never need to fill a Brita again.

After passing through the spacious dressing room (which provides storage like a walk-in closet), you find a fully renovated, windowed bathroom whose design takes a tasteful spin on the classic Gotham aesthetic. Subway wall tiles are framed with charcoal grey grout, and so is the sage green penny floor tile. Matte black fittings complete the look.

Through the arched entry, the generous main living space features the original oak parquet with mahogany inlays. It comfortably fits a full living room with seating for 7, a desk, a queen-sized sleeping space (king possible too), and smart, modular shelves that provide storage and privacy between the two spaces. The living area is adorned with custom lighting from local artisans and has top-down/bottom-up blinds that allow for privacy while letting light pour in.

The building features beautifully functional amenities, with a large landscaped garden with a barbecue area and multiple social areas. There is bike storage and a laundry room. Butterfly security entrance sends visitors directly to your phone. The building does not have restrictions on subletting.
