Never before has this Madison Square Park apartment with over 37 feet of frontage facing south and west directly facing the park been available for sale. This sophisticated home with its unique decorative metal window balustrades has been meticulously renovated and designed in a classic, contemporary style.

Enter into a gracious gallery that welcomes you home: a hall leads to the expansive living/entertaining space with four large windows that embrace the changing seasonal landscape: fall, winter, spring and summer all have their own charms and the light is superb all year round. Gleaming ebony infused Oak wood floors and 10ft ceilings along with some floating walls feature throughout, making this an extremely dramatic place to entertain or simply enjoy your coffee. An open Poggenpohl chef’s kitchen with stone counters has been upgraded with additional custom millwork, with integrated Wolf, Viking and Bosch appliances. A sophisticated lighting system has been installed throughout the apartment, partially embedded into the ceiling, and perfectly suited for illuminating the multiple walls, perfectly suited for an important art collection.

A separated hallway leads to the bedroom wing that currently comprises a Master Suite and a second bedroom. The third bedroom has been opened up to the living room as a media room, but is easily restored back to its original intent. The master bedroom retreat has an en-suite marble bathroom, with double vanities, a large glass shower an substantive closets. The generously scaled second bedroom has gorgeous views towards the historically landmarked buildings of Fifth Avenue with a marble bathroom across the hall. There is a laundry closet with washer/dryer and a powder room too. If that is not enough, the apartment comes with an on-floor storage room that acts like your own city garage. The apartment is outfitted with speakers throughout as well as electronic 2-layer shades and a sophisticated lighting system
