Stunning transformation of a classic Pre-war floorthru apartment has resulted in the most stylish mix of modern and historic detail. This is a spacious and light filled home that truly is a masterpiece of design and execution. The front living room has a west facing, double bay window, exposed and beautifully refinished wood beamed ceilings, exposed brick walls, a wood burning fireplace and like the rest of the home, is wired for state of the art audio and visual equipment already. ??The kitchen is gorgeous and large. It opens up on to the living/dining room and has honed Pietro Cardozo granite countertops, a glass tile backsplash and wonderful cabinetry throughout. Its top of the line stainless steel appliances include a 6 burner Wolf stove, Fischer and Paykal drawer dishwasher, SubZero refrigerator. There is a garage style roll down doors on the upper cabinets and thoughtful touches like a storage cabinet that pulls for the dog bowls, and an ingenious breakfast bar that slides open to reveal plenty of space for recycling storage.

Beautiful wood-framed, extra tall, glass doors open on to a middle room that is currently used as a den, home office, and guest room. There is a lovely tin ceiling in this room and a mix of white painted exposed brick and unpainted brick too along with a lovely built in bookcase. This area can be enclosed by an enormous, custom built, sliding French door. Further back in to the apartment, bespoke cabinetry is built in to house extra storage and a Bosch washer/dryer and a built in desk. A large window allows the eastern light to shine in.

The bathroom is a extraordinary as well. It is spa like and enclosed in custom made walls of stained glass, shutter-like windows that open up to an interior chamber. There is gorgeous wide plank, quarter sawn oak flooring. The finest fixtures and finishes were chosen for this space as well, including: Ann Sacks tile, a deep, new cast iron tub, tucked in to the wall with Carrera marble trim, Duravit sink, Samuel Heath bath and sink faucets, and a massive sunflower shower head.

The master bedroom is located in the back of this home for privacy. There is an extra tall, solid magogany door with a split section allowing the bottom to be closed while the top remains open to keep pets in and allow for added light and air. There is an original decorative fireplace grating built in to the wall that now operates as an electric fireplace. Recessed custom cabinetry above contains a spacious television and a/v cabinet.

This building has a common roof deck with sweeping skyline views. Pet friendly. Basement storage. Just 1 block to Prospect Park and the subway too.
