PRE-WAR ELEGANCE WITH A CONTEMPORARY CHEF?S KITCHEN


You enter this sunlit, spacious 2-bedroom/2-bathroom apartment through an elegant foyer with gleaming hardwood floors. They lead you into a stylish sunken living room with windows facing over townhouse gardens. On the way, you pass the full-size, 102-bottle Sub-Zero wine refrigerator and the startlingly large windowed kitchen with a 6-burner Viking stove, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a Fisher Paykel 2-drawer dishwasher. You rarely find such ample cabinet and pantry space and granite countertops in a city dwelling--together they create a space in which you'll want to prepare the gourmet dishes of your dreams. This suburban kitchen in an urban home will become your entertainment center.


Proceed on through high-ceilinged hallways with arches and moldings to a huge 18' X 20' master-bedroom suite, with two exposures and a windowed en suite bathroom, and then on to the large second bedroom, which can function as a home office, den or child's room.


This sophisticated apartment is located in Beekman Court, a pre-war jewel designed by noted architect Jacob M. Felsen, and it features one of his most beautiful Art Deco lobbies. The Beekman Court is located near the United Nations in the historic Turtle Bay neighborhood, and it is an impeccably maintained and financially stable cooperative building, with a full-time doorman and live-in superintendent, laundry facilities and storage available. The building is located near restaurants, gyms, a weekly Farmers Market in the Katharine Hepburn Garden, as well as uptown, downtown, and crosstown buses and multiple subway lines. Dogs and cats are welcome and the building is Pied-à-Terre friendly. A classic New York apartment at the perfect price.
