205 East 78th Street, 11-L

205 East 78th Street, Apartment 11L delivers with remarkable ease. This meticulously designed two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence seamlessly balances sophistication, comfort, and practicality.

Upon entry, you are greeted by a centripetal foyer that deliberately separates the living and sleeping wings, allowing for privacy or connection whenever desired. Two oversized closets provide exceptional storage from the outset, a consistent amenity throughout.

The south-facing living and formal dining rooms are grand in scale and rich in detail, each enhanced by custom millwork, crown moldings, integrated lighting, and bespoke built-ins. The living room is anchored by a captivating wood-burning fireplace with a contemporary marble mantle, bringing warmth and refinement to the space. Designed with entertaining in mind, the formal dining room features a custom-built-in banquette that comfortably accommodates dinner parties of 16 or more. The trophy bespoke built-in bar is a true showpiece-featuring richly veined stone surfaces, artistically crafted millwork, antiqued mirror backing, and floating brass shelving that creates a sophisticated display for spirits, glassware, and collected objects alike.

The windowed chef's kitchen is outfitted with state-of-the-art stainless steel appliances, including a Viking range, SubZero refrigerator, XO wine refrigerator, Summit drink refrigerator and Miele dishwasher, all complemented by stone countertops and a thoughtfully concealed appliance garage.

The east-facing primary bedroom suite offers a tranquil retreat, complete with a fully renovated en-suite bathroom, two outfitted standalone closets, and custom built-ins that thoughtfully accommodate additional storage and home office functionality.

The south- and east-facing secondary bedroom is equally well proportioned and features two outfitted closets, which may be combined if desired. A fully renovated unattached guest bathroom completes the sleeping wing.
