150 Columbus Ave, 26/27C

One-of-a-kind Townhouse in the Sky with Every Modern Convenience of a Full-service Condominium
Residence 26/27C at One Lincoln Square Condominium welcomes you home to a 4,136 square foot, 5 bedroom, 5 bathroom, 3 powder room, sun-filled duplex space, with floor-to-ceiling windows presenting panoramic views of the New York City skyline and the Hudson River. Walk through the grand foyer to enter the spacious two-level “townhouse in the sky” with unobstructed south and southwestern views towering over the infamous cross section of Columbus Avenue and Broadway. The residence directly overlooks Lincoln Center, which by default protects the unobstructed views of this exceptional home because of the restricted air rights above this NYC iconic landmark. The existing layout is highly functional to meet one’s living needs yet it simultaneously allows for flexibility to anyone looking to reconfigure the space to meet their own liking.
LOWER LEVEL
The lower level features a sizable living room with a wet bar and a dining area. Natural sunlight floods the living room from all angles, providing a warm and inviting space, wonderful for both entertaining or unwinding from the flurry of city life. The chef’s kitchen is conveniently located next to the living room and is complete with a large center island, two Sub-Zero refrigerators, two Miele dishwashers, two Franke sinks with garbage disposals, double Viking wall ovens, a Viking warmer oven, and a Thermador stovetop. The kitchen includes a breakfast area, a butler’s pantry and plenty of cabinet space.
This level is completed by two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and two powder rooms, one off of the foyer and the other off of the kitchen. An elegant grand staircase with a wrought-iron bannister seamlessly leads you to the second level.
UPPER LEVEL
The upstairs is generously laid out as the first floor, with the primary bedroom, two secondary ensuite bedrooms, a powder room and an oversized secondary living room with a wet bar that captures breathtaking views of midtown Manhattan. The primary suite located on the west wing of the upper level presents its owners with a palatial space, large enough for a king bedroom set, a sitting room, four closets (one of which is a walk-in), and a five fixture bathroom.
This smart home offers iPad/iPhone controlled systems Lutron lighting, air conditioning and heating (updated in 2019), Somfy smart shade controls, Sonos audio speaker system with individual controls and a DGA security system with direct connection to the police and fire departments. Six of the eight bathrooms were recently gut renovated and include THG Paris, Fantini and Graff fixtures, slab marble, Toto smart toilets, heated towel racks, concrete Nood sinks or floating vanities. Two full-sized Electrolux washers and dryers, one set on each level, hardwood floors and custom closets complete the space. *Qualifying condo unit owners can receive a property tax reduction of ~17.5%. Consult with your tax accountant. Separately, there is a Working Capital Contribution Equal to two month’s common charges (paid by buyer).
