This inviting layout of a one-bedroom with a home office is a cleverly appointed condo home that can easily be converted into a two bedroom setting offering modern living at its highest of standards in LIC’s prime location. The upgrades account for this elevated lifestyle as it includes a fully customized lighting system, built in speakers in every room and aesthetic details such as specialized sleeve covers designed to conceal the PTAC ac/heating systems. Oversized windows with its added luxury of remote-controlled window shades and 10 ft high ceilings give the apt delightful airiness while complimented by the deep richness of American walnut wood floors throughout.

A Wenge wood ‘sushi bar’ wraps partially around the open setting of the masterfully efficient chef’s kitchen with its gleaming white lacquered cabinetry, glass backsplash and quartzite stone countertop, accented with dark walnut tones.

The second bathroom is conveniently located across from the home office/2nd bedroom and features a deep soaking tub. Both bathrooms’ minimalistic aesthetics are enhanced by a Lacava sink, Kohler faucets and a deep ebony wood vanity with a marble stone countertop.
