TAGASI TURUL... See dramaatiline kaasaegne disainiatelje Hotel des Artistes'is omab kõike. Arhitekt Vibeke Lichten'i loodud duplex on mõeldud tema ja tema abikaasa koduks ning sisaldab avarat suurt tuba, kus on ujuv trepp teisele korrusele. 18'9" (5,72 m) kõrge lae ja 15'9" (4,80 m) põhja poole avaneva aknaga on see nurgaresidents valgust täis kolme suuna kaudu: põhjast, läänest ja lõunast. Esimesel korrusel on puuküttega kamin ja suurepärased avarad linna vaated, sealhulgas külgvaade Keskpargile. Eraldi aknaga söögituba ja hommikusöögibaar on samuti olemas. Avatud aknaga kokkade köök on varustatud eritellimusel valmistatud kappidega, sealhulgas suure pantri ja kvartspindadega. Samuti on seal tipptasemel seadmed: 2 täissuuruses SubZero külmikut, sealhulgas üks teie veinikollektsiooni jaoks, Itaalia ahi (ventileeritav) ja Miele nõudepesumasin. Sissepääsuvahes on tualett.

Dramaatilist treppi pidi üles minnes on 2 peamist magamistuba; mõlemal on vannituba. Esimene peamine magamistuba on kahe suuna, lõuna ja lääne poole, ning vannituba on varustatud duši ja saunaga. Teises peamises magamistoas on Miele pesumasin-kuivatusmasin ja suur vannituba, kus on nii ülisuur vann kui ka dušš. Sellel korrusel asuv avatud raamatukogu võiks olla kasutatud kui magamistoa kõrvalhoone või sulgeda kolmandaks eraliseks magamiseks.

See erakordne residents pakub Sonos ümbritsevat heli ja 5 tsooni keskkonda, samuti kauneid puitpõrandaid kogu hoones. Kunagi oli see kunstnik Howard Chandler Christy kodu / stuudio, kes maalib des Artistes restorani tantsivate nümfide müüre, Resident 707 on praeguste omanike poolt põhjalikult renoveeritud ja hooldatud, muutes selle suurepäraseks koduks mugavaks elamiseks ja elegantseks meelelahutuseks. Samuti on 7. korrusel eraldi teenindajate tuba, mis on saadaval lisahinna eest.

Hotel des Artistes on täisteenuse kooperatiiv, mille mugavused ei ole sageli saadaval enne sõda ehitatud hoonetes, sealhulgas täiskohaga concierge ja liftijuhiks, bassein, squash'i koht korvpallikuupliga, kaks treeningruumi ja kaunis kõrge seinaga katuseterrass. Esimesel korrusel on kaunis restoran, kus on fantaasiarikkad müürid, mille on maalitud residentkunstnik Howard Chandler Christy 1934. aastal hüppavate nümfide kujutamiseks. Uus restoranipidaja võtab hiljem sel aastal üle kauni ruumi, pakkudes des Artistes elanikele toidutoimetust ja soodustusi söömiseks. Ideaalselt asub Manhattani Ülem-Läänes, Hotel des Artistes on lähedal Keskpargi loodusele, Lincolni keskuse kultuuriüritustele ning boutique-poode ja populaarsetele restoranidele Columbus Avenuel.

Ehitatud 1917. aastal kunstnike koduks, on Hotel des Artistes majesteetlik 18-korruseline hoone, mille gooti stiilis fassaad on kaunistatud armastavate garguudide kujutistega maalikunstnikest, skulptoritest ja kirjanikest. Arhitekt George Mort Pollardi loodud hoone on olnud koduks paljudele kuulsatele ja tuntud isikutele, sealhulgas Noel Cowardile, Isadora Duncanile, kirjanik Fannie Hurstile, Alexander Woollcottille, Norman Rockwellile ja Joel Greyle.

BACK ON THE MARKET...This dramatic contemporary design atelier at the Hotel des Artistes has it all. Designed by architect Vibeke Lichten as a home for her and her husband, the duplex features an expansive great room with a floating staircase to the second level. With a soaring 18’9” ceiling and 15’9” north-facing window, this corner residence is bathed in light from 3 exposures: North, West, South. The first floor offers a wood-burning fireplace and spectacular open city views with a side view of Central Park. There is a separate windowed dining space as well as a breakfast bar. The open, windowed chef’s kitchen has custom cabinetry, including a large pantry and quartz countertops. It also has top of the line appliances: 2 full size SubZero refrigerators including one for your wine collection, an Italian oven (vented out) and a Miele dishwasher. At the entry foyer is a powder room.

Up the dramatic staircase are 2 primary bedrooms; both with ensuite baths. The first primary has two exposures, South and West and the bathroom features a shower that is also a sauna. The second primary has a Miele washer/dryer and a large bathroom with both an oversized tub and a shower. An open library on this floor could be used as a bedroom loft or enclosed for a 3rd private bedroom.

This exceptional residence has Sonos surround sound and 5-zoned central air conditioning as well as beautiful hardwood floors throughout. Once the home/studio of the artist Howard Chandler Christy, who painted the murals of dancing nymphs for the des Artistes restaurant, Residence 707 has been meticulously renovated and maintained by the current owners, making it a lovely home for comfortable living and elegant entertaining. There is also a separate staff room on the 7th floor offered for an additional price.

The Hotel des Artistes is a full service cooperative with amenities not often available in pre-war buildings, including full-time concierge and elevator operator, a swimming pool, a squash court with a basketball hoop, two workout rooms as well as a charming high-walled roof deck. On the ground floor is a beautiful restaurant with fanciful murals of frolicking nymps painted by the resident artist Howard Chandler Christy in 1934. A new restaurateur will be taking over the charming space later this year, offering des Artistes residents room service and discount dining. Ideally located on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the Hotel des Artistes is close to the nature of Central Park, the cultural events of Lincoln Center and boutique shopping and popular dining on Columbus Avenue.

Built in 1917 as a home for artists, the Hotel des Artistes is a majestic 18-story building with a Gothic-style facade featuring charming gargoyles of painters, sculptors and writers. Designed by the architect George Mort Pollard, the building has been home to many of the famed and illustrious, including Noel Coward, Isadora Duncan, writer Fannie Hurst, Alexander Woollcott, Norman Rockwell and Joel Grey.
