Step into a masterpiece of modern luxury in a gut-renovated, 84-foot-by-50-foot, full-floor home just steps from Union Square.
The sunken foyer of this three-bedroom, three-bath showplace serves as both a striking entry point and an ideal gallery for your important collection, signaling that you've arrived at a home of impeccable distinction and style.
Ahead, the expansive sunken living room beckons, stretching more than 800 square feet.
Paved with four-foot-by four-foot Stone Italiana floors and warmed by a recycled aluminum and stone slab 8-foot-long Ethanol Fireplace by Camino Incasso, this expansive room is sure to be the site of joyful entertaining and serene relaxation, with the stunning atrium wall as an exceptional backdrop.
The kitchen is a marvel of both form and function, outfitted with a Gaggenau cooktop, a dishwasher, two refrigerators and a freezer, plus Miele double wall ovens with warming drawers and an integrated espresso/coffee machine.
Premium Italian cabinetry by GeD Cucine features effortless touch-latch operation and convenient LED lighting.
The adjacent dining room provides luxurious seating for at least 10, while endless glossy built-ins line both the kitchen and dining room, providing a cohesive design and artistic backdrop for objects.
Unique Spanish leather tile guides you to the decadent master suite, where the 16-and-a-half-foot-wide atrium wall provides a calming focal point and an organic juxtaposition to the home's enthusiastically modern design scheme.
Surrounded by two massive Rossetto walk-in closets, plus two smaller closets, storage is elegantly and efficiently addressed.
The suite also features a chic, modern master bath equipped with an electric fireplace by Dimplex, Newform fixtures, a Kohler Numi toilet, dual vanities, a sculptural freestanding tub, and a frameless glass walk-in shower.
Two more well-appointed bedrooms, each boasting ample closet space, flank the home's second handsome full bathrooms equipped with Italian mosaic tile, extraordinary contemporary sink, a Toto toilet, and Newform fixtures.
A laundry room with an Asko washer-dryer rounds out the fantastic floorplan.
Thoughtful designer details––including gorgeous light fixtures by Terzani, Fredrick Raymond and Baccarat, and nine-foot-tall Lualdi Porte doors––are the hallmark of the home.
Standoff glass railings and partitions delineate living spaces, while allowing light to roam unencumbered throughout the home's 4,200 square feet, and technology adds comfort and convenience at every turn.
Nest system temperature controls guide the four-zone central air conditioning, and a Crestron system governs TV, lighting, and sound.

Here, residents enjoy immediate access to the best shopping, dining, and nightlife the city has to offer, not to mention the best greenmarket in Manhattan.
