255 West 84th Street, 2-AE

This sprawling and sun-bathed 4 to 5-bedroom, 4.5 bath is a dream come true. Flawlessly restructured from its original 16-room layout, this mint condition 11-room masterpiece underwent a luxurious renovation that seamlessly blends stunning prewar details and scale with every modern convenience. Enter a graciously proportioned foyer from a private elevator landing where you'll catch a glimpse of the extra-wide “enfilade” gallery with soaring 10'+ ceilings which serves as the apartment's central corridor. Just off the foyer, there is a large walk-in entry closet and a chic powder room for guests. The grand entertaining spaces, which open onto the main gallery, include a double-sized living room and wood-paneled library that is currently used as an intimate dining room. An oversized square room - accessible to the kitchen and other entertaining areas - is currently used by the owners as a den/second living room but can be easily transformed into an elegant dining room and accommodate a dinner party for 24. A brand new eat-in chef's kitchen is well-appointed with a La Cornue stove, Sub-Zero double fridge , and Carrara marble counter tops, two full-sized pantries and an abundance of custom storage. Just off the kitchen is a large breakfast nook for more casual dining. The home's sleeping quarters are split into two wings - providing ultimate flexibility and privacy depending on your needs. The south corner wing currently has two large bedrooms with massive windows facing tree-lined East 84th Street. Each features its own full bathroom, window seats, custom millwork throughout, and multiple outfitted closets. The north wing features a primary suite that provides unparalleled luxury. This double room boasts a private dressing room and a spa-like marble bathroom with a deep soaking tub, separate stall shower, dual vanity and radiant heat floors. A generous fourth bedroom enjoys its own full renovated bathroom. Completing this wing is a large, windowed home office/study or fifth bedroom, as well as a laundry room with a commercial size vented washer/dryer. Other features of this incredible pre-war home include stunning solid oak herringbone floors, exquisite custom millwork designed by Peter Cope, hidden storage, 7-zone central AC, Creston sound and lighting system, 20 new triple-paned energy efficient noise cancelling windows, and top-of-the-line finishes throughout. Built in 1914, the Alameda is a preeminent full-service coop located on 84th Street between Broadway and West End Avenue - just steps from both Central Park and Riverside Park. Residents enjoy a bike room, full time doorman and porter, live-in superintendent and a landscaped "green" roof deck.
