This gracious 1,375 SF one bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath residence provides a truly exceptional space to call home, with staggering views of the city. The spacious living and dining room are outfitted with Carlisle 8" oversized wide-plank white oak flooring that have been newly refinished, floor-to-ceiling Starphire UV-coated windows, custom full-height curtains, and nearly 10-foot ceilings to further highlight the spectacularly views to the East, North, and West in the home. The open chef’s kitchen features wire-brushed oak cabinetry with integrated pulls, Gaggenau stainless steel appliances, and Italian Carrara marble knife edge countertops and backsplash with embedded ventilation and LED lighting - to provide a truly sleek, elegant feel. The bedroom is oriented ideally for privacy away from the living space, and features closets outfitted by Poliform. The full bathroom comes with heated Silver Striatio travertine floors, an oak vanity with a Silver Striato travertine slab countertop and integrated sink, and a glass-enclosed shower and water closet, with Aquabrass fixtures throughout for an added level of elegance. Many of these same high-end features from the full bathroom are carried into the powder room as well, which is located conveniently off the entry hallway, right off of the main living space. The Foster + Partners-designed 100 East 53rd Street offers hotel-like amenities include a wellness facility, a 60-foot sunlit swimming pool, sauna, steam room, yoga and pilates rooms, library, lounges, and world-class dining. Outside the residence, you have incredible proximity to the best of the city, with fantastic access to a wide array of subway lines.
