Description

A grand, high-floor corner 4.5 room residence at 15 West 81st Street, the famed Emery Roth landmark building. This apartment features a classic pre-war layout with Southern, Eastern, and Western exposures providing beautiful sun and open sky views through 13 windows. The center entrance foyer leads you to a grandly proportioned 23′ × 16′ corner living room which is ideal for entertaining.

The living room has both southern and open western exposures providing beautiful sunlight all day long. A beautifully renovated powder room is conveniently located off of the foyer. The renovated eat-in kitchen features custom cabinetry, a stylish mosaic tiled backsplash, and high-end appliances including a SubZero fridge, a Dacor range, a Bosch dishwasher, and a Miele washer/dryer. The kitchen stretches into the comfortable dining alcove boasting an enormous picture window with beautiful light and quintessential New York views. The gracious layout provides a complete separation between the living areas and the bedroom wing.

The massive corner primary suite measures 19′ × 14′ and boasts two large walk-in closets with sunny but quiet southern exposures. The windowed en-suite bath has been superbly renovated featuring an oversized rain shower, a custom vanity, floor-to-ceiling glass tiling, handsome slate floors, and the best fixtures and finishes. The generous second bedroom measures nearly 16 x 12 ‘ and boasts sunny southern exposures and a wall of large custom-built closets.

The windowed en-suite bath is perfectly renovated featuring classic subway tiling with a beautiful decorative inlay, a custom vanity, and a deep soaking tub. Other features of this residence include perfectly restored pre-war details such as high, beamed ceilings, solid wood doors, original hardware, herringbone floors, a washer/dryer, and an abundance of closet space including three walk-ins. 15 West 81st Street is a long-established white glove coop with a reputation for stellar service and is 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 the purchaser.
