Property Description for 15 West 53rd Street, 29-AF/30-A

Defined by its perfect flow and natural light, this one-of-a-kind, 5,700-square-foot home presents an incomparable opportunity. Impeccable renovations and Stedila Design-planning yield a modern yet warm sensibility that cascades through this open duplex, currently configured as a three bedroom (convertible four) and complemented by four full and two half bathrooms. Floor-to-ceiling windows on both floors deliver stunning, unencumbered views of the majesty of Central Park and Manhattan to the north, east and west. An entry foyer on the first floor opens into an immense entertainment area. Past the bright room's decorative fireplace is an inspiring library with a full wall of mahogany shelves. This luxuriant section flows into the dining room both of which stretch alongside the remodeled kitchen, which can open up or be closed off as needed, thanks to opaque sliding TRE-Piu doors. Partially separated into full and service, the kitchen comes complete with stainless steel Viking appliances, including a dishwasher and six burner stove. Additionally, the ample cabinets are stainless. The double oven sits between the full and service set-ups, and the latter boasts three large Sub-Zero wine refrigerators, a Fisher-Paykel dishwasher, and an ice maker. With no detail left unconsidered, there's a breakfast bar, and an additional Sub-Zero refrigerator in the service entrance room. The first floor also houses one spacious bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, tucked into a corner beyond the living room altogether accessible yet private. Up the curved, glass staircase imagined by the same designers as those found in Apple stores the breathtaking master bedroom occupies the home's northeast corner. Off to another side, the dressing room/home office contains an abundance of closet and storage space. It could easily be converted to a fourth bedroom. On this floor, one finds the fabulous master bathroom, featuring a soaking tub and a separate shower, a hair sink, along with a bidet. On the other side, a walk-in closet houses custom shelving and another full bath complete with a concrete tub and a separate shower that doubles as a steam room and features a heated shaving mirror. A third large bedroom also factors into the second floor, and has its own ensuite bathroom. Additional tech-forward features include Somfy electric blinds throughout, as well as a Sonos and Crestron home audio system that circulates music within all the rooms. In the laundry room, a Miele washer and dryer are complemented by a sink and further storage space. Three storage units ? and three wine storage units ? are provided with this home. Museum Tower at 15 West 53rd Street is a full service, white-glove condominium building with an array of top-tier amenities. There's precise service, from both a 24-hour doorman and elevator attendants. And there are personal touches, from the landscaped terrace overlooking the MoMA sculpture garden to a newly renovated bi-level fitness center with sauna. There is also a wine tasting room, conference and media rooms, housekeeping services, and additional laundry facilities. It's a home that can nurture any vision for modern living.

Midtown West | Manhattan

Quick Profile

People, yellow cabs, bright lights, big crowds, 24-hour eateries and just about every type of store imaginable. it’s a frenetic buzz that only a few places on the globe can offer. And that’s just one part of it. Midtown West is the birthplace of hustle and bustle and it’s bordered by 42nd to the south, 59th Street to the north, 8th Avenue to the west, and 5th Avenue to the east. 

Midtown West is not as residential as other neighborhoods in Manhattan. The bustling part of Midtown West is 42nd Street between Times Square and 8th Avenues where the retail and office space, theatres, and attractions are. No matter what time of day it is, you'll always find activity there. 

Residential buildings lay near the western end of Midtown West beginning around 8th Avenue. 

Location, location, location. Of all the neighborhoods and enclaves of Manhattan, Midtown West is perhaps the most commutable place to live, visit, or work. It contains one of the highest concentrations of subway lines in the Big Apple. A, C, E, N, Q, R, 1, 2, 3, and the 7 train. The transit system feeds the streets with commuters from everywhere. The Port Authority Bus Terminal and nearby Penn Station adds to the number of people that flood Midtown on any given day. 

It’s one of the easiest places in all of Manhattan to navigate because it’s a true grid. Uptown, street numbers go up. Downtown, street numbers go down. It’s the same concept from east to west. You really can’t get lost in Midtown West.
