Description
This approximate 4,241 square foot 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home with a home office has been beautifully renovated and designed for comfortable living and entertaining, flawlessly blending modern contemporary design and lighting with the grandeur of a pre-war building, all in the heart of vibrant NoMad.
Enter through a gracious foyer, lined with a beautiful wood-paneled wall concealing an ample amount of closet space and storage. Nearly 11-foot ceilings throughout add to the airy brightness as you enter the great room with its large south-facing oversized windows.
The sleek open kitchen plan and enormous island with seating are as chic as they are functional. A Wolf oven, range, and inset microwave, fully integrated refrigerator/freezer, and a Miele dishwasher complete this chef's dream of a kitchen.
The dining alcove, with a recessed sidebar for serving drinks or displaying artwork and additional shelving for books or glassware, comfortably seats 8 to 10 people for dinner parties and holiday affairs.
A beautifully appointed home office with a bay of pre-war windows can also serve as a fifth bedroom.Private from the main living quarters, you'll find the sleeping area and baths of this gracious home.
The extra-large primary bedroom with enough room for a sitting/reading area contains extraordinary wood-paneled closet space as well as a custom walk-in closet and an ensuite spa bath with dual sinks, an oval soaking tub, a glass-enclosed shower, and a towel warmer.
Three additional bedrooms with ample closet space, two full baths and an extra half bath for guests as well as a storage room and separate laundry room bring us full circle to this extraordinary and delightful home.
