The John Murray House at 220 Madison Ave. #11HJ

Imagine the sensation of being in Paris while in the middle of New York. Overlooking the Polish Embassy and the Morgan Library, this unique residence combines aesthetics and functionality to great effect. Thoughtfully conceived by renowned interior designer Ken Foreman, known for his minimalist style and artistic sensitivity, the apartment perfectly communicates seamless flow and functionality with elegant lines. The open concept Bulthaup Chef’s kitchen pours into a bright and sunny dining area, transitioning into an inviting living room and then to the library, creating unique fluidity from one room to the next and lightness to walls, partitions, deep closets and ample storage space throughout. This 3 bedroom convertible 4 bedroom corner duplex apartment with separate entrances is perfect for entertaining, yet allows privacy with 2 bedrooms (master and spacious second bedroom) on the top floor with an adjacent suite on the first floor that can function perfectly as a second master bedroom, home office or guest bedroom. Currently, this apartment features 3 full baths, including a pristine master bath, and a wine cellar that can be put back to an original fourth bath or powder room. A separate bonus laundry room /service area with a wash sink and lots of space for an ironing board and drying racks. Overall, a rare find for the discerning buyer. The John Murray House is a full service coop with renovated lobby and hallways and a beautiful roof deck with Empire State views. Centrally located this vibrant neighborhood is close to both Bryant Park and Madison Square Park, Grand Central, cafs, specialty shops, the traditional French bakery of Maison Kayser, the Italian food destination, Eataly, and sophisticated dining. Parking available and pets allowed.
