Boffo Bauhaus Mid-Century Magic! For those who admire mid-20th century International Style, you have reached the Fountainhead! This Bauhaus, zen 1 bedroom 1 bath has been admirably restored to its pristine original condition, but with 21st century improvements. The Rockefeller Apartments' renovation from the lobbies to the penthouses are complete. Brand new state-of-the-art casement windows and through-the-wall air conditioners are installed not only for seamless lines on the building's facades, but for a pleasing interior aesthetic standard. Imagine your future homeward commute, setting a thermostat remotely to the ideal room temperature via your WiFi Nest thermostats. Well, the future is now in the always-futuristic Rockefeller Apts. Original design details include the herringbone hardwood floors, nickel hardware throughout, and the original Oriole gas stove and oven! Overlooking the building's serene inner courtyard garden, this tranquil apartment has high ceilings, open skyline views, and is bathed in beautiful light from gorgeous double exposures, both north and east. The renovated windowed kitchen, pantry and service entrance adjoin a spacious dining alcove with an east facing window. The Master bedroom suite is adjacent to a separate dressing room and the original "black and white" bathroom is in superb condition.
Commissioned by the Rockefeller family in 1936 for renowned architects Wallace Harrison and Andre Fouilhoux, it became a New York City landmark in 1984. Come witness the restored magic, and see what the buzz is all about at The Rockefeller Apartments, a full service coop in the heart of Manhattan. Building permits pied a terre, pets and 50% financing.
