This extraordinary four bedroom, four and a half bathroom home, perched high above West Chelsea's streetscape and the High Line Park, features four breathtaking exposures with sweeping panoramic views of the Hudson River, midtown and downtown Manhattan, and beyond. With direct elevator access through a private vestibule, this stately, column-free home offers a magnificent center galley and a southwest-facing 37'x19' corner grand room with adjacent library and formal dining room.
Expertly designed interiors by Foster Partners include a top-of-the-line kitchen by Molteni with beveled Blanco de Macael marble countertops and natural oak cabinetry, French-inspired oak herringbone wood floors, custom cove lighting in the foyer, detailed millwork and deep thresholds throughout. A stunning, corner master bedroom with direct river views features a fully finished, large walk-in closet with custom millwork, a luxurious master bathroom oasis with double door entry, a freestanding tub overlooking the river, radiant heated Luna Black granite floors and a custom Corian vanity. Other features include an enclosed shower and water closet with floor to ceiling translucent glass doors. Three additional en suite bathrooms, two with large picture windows, have Travertino Striato stone floors and elegant Dornbracht fixtures.
With rich materials throughout, this exceptional home offers spaces that are akin to a more elegant era, reinterpreted through the architect's modernist sensibility: French-inspired oak herringbone floors frame these distinctive rooms while luminous metal reveals and a deep facade for perimeter seating border each panoramic view. This residence is fully integrated with pre-wiring for the most advanced home technology systems.
