Description
An entire private garden in the middle of Midtown.
Tucked along a quiet, tree-lined Turtle Bay block, this architecturally reimagined and triple mint full-floor one-bedroom home opens through a wall of floor-to-ceiling glass doors to more than 800 square feet of south-facing outdoor space – a true backyard that transforms how you live in the home day to day.
Not a balcony. Not a terrace. A fully realized extension of the apartment – offering space to step outside, entertain, and breathe.
Inside, the apartment unfolds across a long, open living and dining space anchored by restored brick and wide-plank oak floors, with a natural flow that leads directly to the garden. The full-floor layout offers a sense of privacy and separation rarely found in one-bedroom homes.
The custom 23-foot open kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with Thermador appliances, a 36″ refrigerator and 24″ freezer, full-size dishwasher, wine fridge, honed black granite island, and abundant white lacquer cabinetry.
Outside is where the home becomes something truly rare. The backyard is arranged across two distinct levels – a porcelain-tiled entertaining terrace and a grand-scale dining area centered around a 14-foot custom Ipe and Corten steel table – all framed by Ipe fencing and mature plantings that create a surprising sense of calm in the middle of the city.
The spa-like bathroom features a glass-enclosed shower, floor-to-ceiling porcelain tile, and a custom granite vanity. Additional features include central heating and air conditioning, in-unit washer/dryer, and unusually generous custom storage throughout.
Pet-friendly co-op with basement storage, ideally located moments from Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, Sutton Place Park, the East River Greenway, and the E, M, and 6 trains.
Live indoors. Live outdoors. Rarely both – and almost never like this.
