Welcome to this rarely available one bedroom/convertible 2 with 1 bath apartment located on lower Fifth Avenue's Gold Coast, in a building designed by renowned residential architect Rosario Candela. Its well-organized plan includes three exposures, Old World charm - a signature of any Candela residence - reigns, without forgoing modern amenities.
This charming space invites you to make yourself at home from the moment you enter the entry foyer with an oversized closet, leads into a gracious living room with windows facing east and an office/convertible 2nd bedroom with southern exposure stream endless light. Both rooms look out on the neighboring newly planted formal garden consisting of symmetrical patters, made up by plant beds, low hedges, colored gravel, turf, flowering trees and the backyards of historic townhouses. Ideal for working from home, as one can enjoy the changing of seasons while you connect to your own oasis of nature.
This apartment also offers a brilliantly renovated, transom windowed cook's kitchen and features a built-in Sub Zero refrigerator, Sterling dual oven, Bosch dishwasher, GE Profile microwave and a custom soapstone sink seamless to the soapstone countertops. All cabinetry is solid wood with custom bronze fixtures and hardware. Lovely hardwood floors, beautiful doors and refined custom cabinetry finishes, all provide a sense of warmth, and the closets are large and deep with 9'-6" ceiling height throughout. The office/convertible 2nd bedroom off the living room is convenient for guests, and could also be used to install a washer/dryer. The prime bedroom faces west and has a huge built-in wall of storage and last but certainly not least is the oversized tiled bathroom with stylish fixtures and an oversized tub you will want to soak in for hours.
All this amid one of the most vibrant neighborhoods in the city, and just a stone's throw from Washington Square Park, shopping and restaurants on 8th Street and University Place, convenient to NYU, Union Square, and subways in all directions. The staff is full time, including a live-in super, and the newly renovated lobby is graceful and welcoming. There is also a gorgeous, expertly-planted roof deck; a laundry room; and pets and pieds-a-terre are both permitted.
