This meticulously designed residence spans 2,054 square feet and is a convertible three-bedroom home, beautifully illuminated by natural light through its expansive mahogany tilt-and-turn windows, which provide southern, eastern, and northern exposures. The home also boasts a private balcony equipped with a plumbed outdoor grill, perfect for al fresco dining. Upon arrival, the intimate elevator landing opens directly into a windowed foyer, adorned with sleek blackened stainless steel walls and elegant mahogany bench seating. A secondary doorway enhances security and facilitates easy access. This inviting foyer transitions seamlessly into the heart of the home, where custom floor-to-ceiling White Oak millwork discreetly conceals ample closets and storage spaces. White Oak flooring runs throughout the residence, enhancing its elegance and functionality. Thoughtfully crafted storage solutions, including custom built-ins under the windows, are seamlessly integrated into both the living spaces and bedrooms. The expansive south-facing living room, with soaring 10.4-foot ceilings, amplifies the sense of space. A stunning blackened steel-sheathed wood-burning fireplace, complete with a sliding glass cover door, serves as a striking focal point. The open floor plan accommodates dedicated living and dining areas, which thoughtfully connect to the open eat-in kitchen, perfect for both entertaining and everyday living. The windowed eat-in kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring custom white lacquer millwork with thoughtfully designed pull-out drawers and inserts for optimal storage solutions. A mosaic backsplash complements the sleek stainless steel countertops, sink with additional boiling water faucet, and island, which offers bar seating for casual dining. The kitchen is equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, including a Viking four-burner range with a grill and exterior-venting hood, a Bosch dishwasher, and a stainless steel refrigerator and microwave. A Marvel 14-inch wine cooler ensures your collection is perfectly preserved, while the conveniently accessed balcony with a plumbed outdoor grill is ideal for entertaining. For added flexibility, a discreet privacy nested-pocket door allows the kitchen to be closed off when desired. The details and design flow seamlessly throughout the space, with the exquisite floor-to-ceiling White Oak paneled walls guiding you to the bedroom wing. The expansive primary bedroom boasts south and east-facing corner windows, offering picturesque views of the lush James Bogardus Triangle Garden. A thoughtfully curated walk-in closet provides ample storage, while the en-suite primary bath serves as a tranquil sanctuary. It features double sinks with marble countertops, a freestanding glass shower, a deep soaking tub, and radiant heated floors for ultimate comfort. The spacious second bedroom, with its full southern exposure, offers versatile options as a guest suite, home office, or study. It features custom built-in closets, a built-in desk, and shelving for additional storage. Originally designed with a three-bedroom, 2.5-bath layout, the residence is currently configured as an expansive two-bedroom home. However, there is potential to effortlessly reinstate a generous third bedroom, as demonstrated in the alternate floor plan. The home is outfitted with a state-of-the-art Sonos surround sound system, Lutron lighting, and automatic blinds, offering privacy sheers in common areas and both blackout and sheer shades in the bedrooms. The central HVAC system, controlled by Nest thermostats, ensures effortless climate management and year-round air conditioning. Heating is efficiently provided by steam radiators with adjustable dials for personalized comfort. The residence features a multi-layered security system: a DSC alarm system safeguards the home, while a building intercom system—soon to be upgraded with integrated smartphone capabilities—enhances security for all residents. An in-unit private laundry room, equipped with a vented LG washer and dryer along with an automatic recycling management system, facilitate easy completion of household tasks.
