Description

Welcome to apartment 4E at 15 West 81st Street, an apartment like no other on the market today with a triple-mint renovation surpassing even the best new development finishes. This entire residence was recently gut renovated and reimagined. Upon entering you are met with a dramatic entrance gallery that stretches over 24 feet and outfitted with handcrafted solid wood cabinetry and custom lighting.

The gallery leads you through a wall of custom walk-in closets adorned with stunning mirrored doors into the great room which has been expanded creating a loft-like feeling not found anywhere uptown in a pre-war setting. The architects created this unique space by expanding the living room into the primary bedroom while capturing an eastern facing window with views of Central Park resulting in a corner great room expanding nearly 30 feet in length. There is room for multiple seating/living locations as well as formal dining and a home office.

The eat-in kitchen is located on the other end of the gallery. Solid wood, hand painted St. Charles cabinetry adorns the entire room which also boasts architecturally designed storage utilizing every inch of space. The kitchen boasts the best fixtures and appliances including a large SubZero fridge, a Wolf range and vented hood, Miele convection oven/micro and Miele dishwasher.

The kitchen area also features a stylish bar above a dual wine fridge making entertaining even more of a dream. The primary bedroom suite is nothing short of astonishing with quiet but sunny southern courtyard exposures and a dressing room that rivals anything you can find at a fashion house and a primary bath to rival any top spa. The floor to ceiling marble and Caesarstone blend is a dream with a huge walk-in shower and storage galore created with two separate solid wood custom vanities and topped off with sumptuous heated floors.

The second bedroom is tucked behind the apartment creating a quiet oasis for guests or the perfect home office or media room. The second full bath is also adorned with a wonderful mix of floor to ceiling marble, ceramic tiling and Caesarstone. The staff room has been transformed into an office and features a completely renovated full bath and an abundance of custom-fitted storage.

The laundry room with a vented dryer is also located in this part of the home. This residence has central AC, brand new windows, electric blinds, a completely integrated Sonos sound system in all main rooms and all with central controls. The entire apartment has been sound proofed offering you a pin drop quiet environment with gorgeous and quintessential landmark brownstone views on West 82nd street and an eastern exposure to Central Park in the great room. 15 West 81st Street is a long-established, white glove cooperative with a reputation for stellar service and located on one of the most sought-after blocks in Manhattan just off Central Park West and across from the Museum of Natural History and the Rose Planetarium.

Modern building amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness center, bike room, playroom, and separate storage rooms for owners. 50% financing permitted and a 2% flip tax payable by purchaser.
