CONTRACT SIGNED Candela Five Room Masterpiece It is rare to find an apartment with elegance, charm, beautiful detailing throughout and in move-in condition. Look no further. From a semi private elevator landing this apartment opens to an expansive entrance gallery. This leads to the perfectly proportioned south facing living room with a wood burning fireplace flanked by charming windows in the style of French doors overlooking trees that line East 57th Street. Since this is a wide street the sun streams in through the floor to ceiling windows. This room flows seamlessly into the corner library or second bedroom which also has floor to ceiling windows and faces south and west. There are many built-in cabinets, a walk in closet and a new bath. Off of the entrance gallery is the master bedroom suite with another walk in closet, many built-in cabinets for additional storage and the master bathroom. You will be pleasantly surprised to find French doors opening onto a charming balcony from this room. Beyond the gallery is the large dining room or sitting room with a bay window at the end; this is where the current owner has the perfect place for the dining room table. The kitchen features up to date appliances and there is an office located at the far end of this room. The original architectural details throughout this unique home have been meticulously maintained. There is central air conditioning, a washer/dryer and beautiful floors in a herringbone pattern in the public rooms. The apartment comes with a large storage closet located in the basement and there is a live in Resident Manager.
