A full-floor residence of exceptional proportion, Residence 7 offers three bedrooms plus a staff room, four baths and a private terrace within a setting where prewar architectural character and a comprehensive, high-caliber renovation exist in complete harmony. Direct elevator entry opens into a generous foyer, setting the tone for an interior of grand scale.
The living room spans over 21 feet, anchored by an Art Deco Marquina marble decorative fireplace and finished in modern Venetian plaster with custom architectural grilles, Restoration Hardware alabaster sconces, and Pierre Frey window treatments. It flows directly into the formal dining room, where Philip Jeffries metallic grasscloth wall treatment, a J. Robert Scott chandelier, and PE Guerin molding mercury glass mirrors set the stage for formal entertaining. French doors open to a private terrace finished in Mediterranean tile, extending the entertaining sequence outdoors.
The eat-in kitchen is outfitted with custom Siematic lacquer cabinetry, a quartz LED countertop island, herringbone marble hand-cut tiles by Artistic Tile, and custom polished nickel door frames. Appliances include a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Gaggenau double steam and convection ovens, Gaggenau dishwasher, Thermador electric cooktop, and a dedicated wine cooler. A Dornbracht faucet and butler sink, Hamilton Sinkler hardware, and Kreon modular lighting complete the space. Adjacent, a custom banquette and Nancy Corzine Lucite oval glass-top table create an intimate breakfast nook, while a separate dining room, full bathroom, and washer/dryer round out the service wing.
The primary suite is dressed in Philip Jeffries velvet with a Garrett Leather accent wall, Tom Dixon mirror ball pendant lights, a custom bronze door frame, and brushed stainless steel closet hardware. The en-suite bath is finished in Vanilla Onyx vein-cut marble by Artistic Tile, with a Bain Ultra soaking tub, THG hardware in luxe brass and black onyx, and a Nella Vetrina vanity. A second primary suite features a Maya Romanoff silver birch chevron wood veneer wall treatment and an en-suite bath finished in Artistic Tile shagreen porcelain with a Restoration Hardware Cela vanity and a Seura custom mirror with integrated television. Two additional bedrooms are equally well-appointed, each with distinctive wall treatments and en-suite baths finished in Carrara porcelain and Waterworks mosaic tile respectively.
Throughout the residence, herringbone oak floors, custom oak doors, PE Guerin gold hardware, and a Savant smart-home system controlling lighting, window treatments, and sound reflect a renovation where no detail was overlooked. The entrance gallery sets an immediate tone with a hand gold-leafed elevator, a forged bronze metal door, and New Ravenna smoked stone and river shell mosaic floors by Artistic Tile.
