The custom Pullman kitchen is thoughtfully designed with matching oak cabinetry, flanked by built-in bookshelves for both beauty and function. High-end appliances include a Miele microwave/convection oven and a Wolf induction cooktop. The countertops and backsplash are crafted from polished black limestone embedded with 400-million-year-old fossils, creating a striking and truly unique black-and-white design. The bathroom has been fully renovated as well, featuring Waterworks fixtures and a brand-new, fully tiled shower. This home is a rare jewel-beautifully finished and seldom found.
Located in the iconic Osborne, a coveted full-service landmark building constructed in 1885, the residence is steeped in architectural and cultural history. The Osborne is renowned for its celebrated past and present residents, including Leonard Bernstein, Lynn Redgrave, and Bobby Short.

The famed Osborne lobby is a masterpiece in itself, richly decorated in Italian Renaissance and Romanesque Revival styles. Byzantine-inspired details include stucco and mosaic-tiled walls, intricate artistic tile floors paired with varicolored Italian marble slabs, and glazed terracotta Della Robbia panels adorned with deep reds, blues, and gold leaf that grace the walls and ceilings.
