Property Description
Outstanding Residence in The Legendary Beresford, one of the Upper West Side's finest Emery Roth Buildings. Brilliant Reimagination of this Classic 7 Room Apartment...ABSOLUTE PERFECTION with INCREDIBLE VIEWS! This high floor, spectacular residence in The Beresford, has been fully renovated, ensuring unwavering dedication to quality, attention, and detail. The reimagined floor plan seamlessly blends pre-war elegance with modern luxury accommodating today's lifestyle. The piece de resistance is the mesmerizing views (day and night) of the Midtown/Central Park South Skyline, Central Park, The Museum of Natural History, and The Rose Planetarium (beautifully illuminated in the evening). From the moment you step into the foyer, from the tastefully renovated semi-private elevator vestibule, you are captivated by the pristine condition of the apartment. The Entrance Foyer is defined by custom architectural steel and glass (Bendheim) partitions and doors, recessed ceiling lighting, Antiqued Grey and White Marble Tiles (Exquisite Surfaces), and an oversized custom-fitted hall closet. The Entrance Foyer leads to the Gallery, which serves as the anchor point from which all major rooms radiate and flow seamlessly. From the Gallery, one notices additional strategically positioned steel and glass partitions that create an open and airy environment while defining separation of the spaces and allowing natural light to flow throughout the living and entertaining portions of the apartment. The spacious south facing living room has 3 oversized windows showcasing the breathtaking views, as described. A gas fireplace with a stunning travertine mantel, adorned with surround marble and a hearth of Portoro Black Marble, dominates the center of the room. Above the mantel, a captivating geometric design in travertine, is striking. Flanking either side of the fireplace, are exceptional custom built-in shelves (floor to ceiling) made of Cerused Oak. These shelves are dramatically illuminated and provide abundant space for showcasing art. The living room features recessed ceiling lighting, beautiful Siberian Oak Wood Floors (herringbone pattern), ceiling moldings, and custom window treatments. Accessible from the living room through the sliding steel and glass partition, the library/den (third bedroom) offers a serene retreat. This room has 2 oversized south facing windows, with the same captivating views as the living room, and another west-facing window. A wall of custom built-in cabinetry of Cerused Oak complemented by custom brass hardware, including a desk and wall mounted TV dominates this room. The steel and glass wall in the den has sound obtunding draperies (electronically controlled) backing the partition, which when completely closed, affords total privacy to this room. Siberian Oak floors, beautiful window treatments, wood paneling, and recessed ceiling lights enhance the room's ambiance. The beautifully proportioned Dining Room is entered from the Gallery. It features a double west-facing window, and along with the steel and glass partitions, this room gets excellent natural light. The seamless flow between the living room, dining room and gallery creates the feeling of an expansive entertaining and living space. The Primary Bedroom is accessed from the hallway off the Gallery. The Powder Room is accessed from this hallway also. This bedroom has 2 windows with the north-facing window offering open city views. A wall of custom-fitted closets, complete with shelves, drawers, and hanging areas, provides excellent storage. The Primary en-suite bathroom with 2 windows is truly remarkable. It features an oversized marble steam shower with built-in marble bench, two sinks carved from a single block of Nero Marquina Marble, basket weave marble on the floor, Calacatta slab marble on the walls, and radiant heat beneath the floors. A spacious dressing room/walk-in closet, custom fitted with adjustable open shelves, drawers, and hanging
