Upon entering the triplex, one notices the handsome custom cabinetry built into the staircase, offering beauty and superior functionality. Striking designer light fixtures catch the eye, as do floor to ceiling windows creating a light and airy feel throughout the space. This open concept parlor level is ideal for entertaining as the living room gracefully transitions to the dining room, and the impressive open kitchen beyond. The kitchen itself features handsome Calcutta marble counters, and a full suite of top of the line Dacor appliances, including a double oven, with additional convection and microwave functionality, range, dishwasher and French door refrigerator. Custom cabinets and built in pantries provide the utmost in storage, while the 10 ft long center island provides the perfect space to gather together. Beyond the kitchen lies the lovely backyard, with a unique terraced design and lush lawn. Upstairs, one finds the luxurious master suite, complete with a walk-in closet, and spa-like en suite bathroom, featuring a Jacuzzi tub with a restful skylight above. At the front of the house is another large bedroom with over-sized picture windows and excellent closet space. A well-sized third bedroom, full bath, and washer/dryer complete the floor. On the truly spectacular top floor lies the one of a kind fourth bedroom and two stunning terraces. Light and air stream in from all sides, while another en suite full bathroom offers a large rain shower with a skylight above, truly bringing the outside in. The downstairs rental offers a mini-version of the matchless triplex above, with a large and open living space, high-end kitchen with dishwasher, in unit W/D, two bedrooms, a luxurious bathroom and back patio!

The attention to detail is obvious throughout this home from the designer lighting to the refined Italian wallpapers used, and not surprisingly this same thoughtfulness extends to the all-important unseen elements as well. Being built from the ground up, the entire home is constructed of a fully engineered steel frame, and a cutting edge membrane protects both the roof and foundation of the home from moisture, causing water to bead up and evaporate quickly and efficiently. A thick layer of insulation and the highest efficiency rated Anderson windows create an energy efficient home, as does the eight zone, NEST controlled, Fujitsu air conditioning system and eight zone Nest controlled radiant heating system. Fire rated cement board surrounds the building, and a fully engineered sprinkler system, hardwired NEST fire and carbon monoxide detectors and ADT security system are there to make you feel at ease. A tank-less hot water system, as well as re circulation pumps ensure you have hot water on demand, and that you never run out. In addition, the entire home is fully pre-wired with jacks for cable, HDMI, USB and Ethernet and is smart phone compatible.
