"Modern architecture and contemporary design blend seamlessly in this dramatic Chelsea Penthouse. Perched high atop a Full Service Doorman Condo with only two apartment per floor on the Penthouse levels; the open floorplan is flooded with natural light and spectacular views. With three exposures (South, East, and North), the views includes city landmarks such as the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, and World Trade Center. From the moment you open the front door, your eyes will be drawn towards the corner living/dining room surrounded by two walls of floor-to-ceiling windows and a beautiful Wood Burning Fireplace wrapped in slate tiles that were hand placed like a piece of art. The kitchen is the centerpiece of the home, custom designed by Bulthaup it features a full range of Miele appliances including a double wall oven, 5 burner range (vented out), and a built-in espresso machine. Walk up the stairs to find a bonus area that can be used an office or a space to relax and read. Step outside and you will find a landscaped terrace with an automatic irrigation system and open views to the North & East. The Zen inspired master suite is complete with a dressing area and an ensuite bathroom that includes a poured concrete dual basin vanity, an oversize walk-in shower, heated towel rack, and a laundry closet with a side-by-side washer & dryer. The guest suite includes it's own windowed bathroom and a custom Murphy bed. The library is outfitted with built-in bookcase and plenty of storage. No detail has been overlooked and no expense has been spared! Featuring the latest ""smart home"" technology, the apartment is wired for Lutron & Crestron home automation systems which allow you to control the lights, window shades, audio, and climate control from the touch of a button on the wall mounted switches or even your iPhone if one desires. Currently configured as a 2 bedroom with a library/office, the apartment could easily be used as a 3 bedroom with a couple of minor changes. This is a Penthouse you must see to appreciate & will not last long!"
