405 W 23RD ST 9L

This is the one you've been waiting for and guaranteed to check all the right boxes. Let's start with a spacious separate Bed Alcove area that accommodates a queen size bed + night tables, etc. You may just fall in love with the floor to ceiling wall of bookcases with enclosed storage capabilities. A perfect place for displaying family photos, decorative items and the tons of books that never seem to find the proper place to be exhibited. A well-appointed dressing area is adjacent to the pristine condition prewar bathroom, with its original 1930's deep cast iron soaking tub, basket-weave marble flooring and subway tiled walls. Step into the intimate and handsome entry foyer, it is an ideal space for a unique piece of Artwork. The European inspired windowed smart kitchen is not only functional, it may just stimulate your inner chef. The piece de resistance is the approx. 14' wide main living / dining room with its 9' +/- beamed ceilings, recently refinished oak plank-wood floors and oversized double thermo-pane casement style windows. The views of our interior gardens displaying their lush green ivy-covered walls in the summer and autumnal colored foliage in the Fall are simply sublime. Not one detail was overlooked in the design and execution of this fine residence. From the kitchen and bath hardware to the reimagined vintage light switches. A true testament to the current resident's preference to reside in a truly understated timeless and classic prewar residence.
