Description

This spectacular home at The Excelsior on Billionaire’s Row has been fully renovated to maximize its open architectural space, and iconic city and river views to the south, east, and north.

Guests enter an intimate foyer opening to a large 12 by 14 gallery, which leads to an enormous 29 by 17 living area encased by picture windows bringing sensational city views and direct sunlight from the south and east. The feeling of light and air are enhanced by a lovely planted, furnished terrace. The gallery also opens to an enchanted dining room with custom lighting and northern city views.

The primary bedroom is an oasis of tranquility floating over the city with picture windows east and north, beautiful, custom built-ins, a special vanity table, amazing closets, and a new spa bath with jacuzzi, stall shower, and double vanities.

The second bedroom has southern views, large closets and its own renovated bath which doubles as a powder room. There is also a smaller guest room or office with its own full bath.

The custom designed chef’s kitchen includes a built-in desk, center island, and enough space for a full-sized dining table. There is a separate laundry room with washer/dryer, sink, storage cabinets, and large countertops for folding.

The Excelsior is a full service white-glove, luxury high rise designed by Phillip Birnbaum constructed in 1967.

Amenities include a concierge, multiple doormen, a 20,000 square foot health club with swimming pool, roof terrace, garage, and valet. Pied-a-terre, sublets, and guarantors are allowed. Dogs under 15 pounds and other pets are welcome.This is a land lease building that combines both building common charges, real estate taxes, and land lease costs.

The corporation has the unilateral right to extend the ground lease through 2064, making this an extraordinary value buy in the heart of Manhattan.
