Čim uđete u ovu rezidenciju na cijeloj etaži s 3 spavaće sobe i 3 kupaonice, oduševit će vas prostranost dnevnog boravka, dvije velike terase i otvoreni pogledi koji se pružaju dalje. No ono što će vas uistinu očarati jest način na koji se sve to skladno povezuje.

Naime, dnevni boravak otvorenog tlocrta izdašno je prostran na način koji današnja novogradnja gotovo nikada ne nudi, a 500 četvornih stopa staklenih stijena između unutarnjeg prostora i izravno povezane terase dodatno naglašava otvorenost za kojom svi žudimo.

U neobičnom zaokretu, krenimo od toaleta za goste/treće kupaonice, smještene uz predvorje, koja se ističe velikim prozorom pune visine u prostoru tuša, stvarajući dojam vanjskog tuša s pogledom na rijeku (privatnost nije problem jer se nijedna druga zgrada ne vidi).

Ulazno predvorje dimenzija 16 × 10 stopa pruža dovoljno prostora za prostor za sjedenje i parkiranje dječjih kolica. Njegova povezanost s prostranim dnevnim boravkom čini cijeli prostor još dojmljivijim.

Dnevno-blagovaonički prostor i vrlo prostrana otvorena kuhinja s plutajućim kuhinjskim otokom od mramora Carrera, duljine 12 stopa, ostvarenje su snova. Takav je prostor jedinstven ne samo zbog svojih dimenzija, već i zbog visine stropa, staklene zavjese i povezane, hortikulturno uređene terase površine 500 četvornih stopa, orijentirane prema sjeveru. Pogled privlače neometani vidici, uključujući Central Park i East River, čineći prostor iznimno praktičnim i vizualno očaravajućim te vas izravno povezujući s gradom u svako doba dana i godine.

Sve što sam dosad opisao čini tek polovicu ovog doma, jer se iza prostrane kuhinje nalaze tri spavaće sobe, dvije kupaonice, praonica pune veličine i još jedna terasa površine 500 četvornih stopa.

Glavna spavaća soba ima iznimno udobnu vlastitu kupaonicu s kadom koja samostalno stoji, ogromnim walk-in tušem, walk-in garderobom s cijelim zidom prozora te pristupom drugoj terasi.

Druga i treća spavaća soba sličnih su dimenzija, pa je jedina razlika u tome tko će dobiti drugi ulaz na terasu.

Dvije terase ovog doma također su sličnih dimenzija; svaka je dovoljno velika za blagovaonske stolove bilo koje veličine, a obje nude otvoren pogled na vodu — jedna je okrenuta prema sjeveru, a druga prema jugu. Tako možete odabrati savršenu terasu ovisno o dobu dana, smjeru vjetra ili jednostavno željenom pogledu.

Ovaj je dom doista jedinstven — a nakon što smo sastavili bazu s više od 9.000 domova s terasama na Manhattanu, znamo razlikovati jedinstveno od tek rijetkog.

Ovaj dom nudi i ključna poboljšanja za kvalitetu života, uključujući široke podne daske od tvrdog drva, vrhunski paket kućanskih uređaja, podno grijanje u sve tri kupaonice, HVAC sustav s pet zona i Google Nest termostatima, SONOS multimedijski sustav s pet zona kojim se upravlja putem sustava Savant, potpuni Wi‑Fi u cijelom domu (uključujući obje terase), vanjski multimedijski sustav te besprijekorno uređeno zelenilo s pametnim sustavom navodnjavanja.

No tu nije kraj, jer se uz ovu jedinicu prenosi i pripadajuće parkirno mjesto. Sadržaji zgrade uključuju salon za stanare s terasom za sunčanje, krovnu terasu za sunčanje, spremište za bicikle i usluge conciergea. A kada uzmete u obzir da ste udaljeni samo jedan blok od FDR Drivea i manje od 100 jardi od stanice podzemne željeznice Q, shvatit ćete: ovaj je dom doista poseban i vrijedan vaše pažnje.

The moment you enter this full-floor 3-bed, 3-bath condo residence, you'll be blown away by the scale of the living room, by the two large terraces, and by the open vistas beyond. But it is in the way these come together that will truly captivate.

After all, the open plan living room is generous in a way that current new construction never is, and the 500 SF of glass between the indoor space and direct living terrace enhances that open feel we all crave.

In an unusual twist, let's start with the powder room/3rd bath, located off the foyer, which features an oversized, full-height window in the shower, creating the feel of an outdoor shower with river views (privacy is not an issue with no other building in sight).

At 16 x 10 ft, the entry foyer provides ample room for a sitting area and stroller parking. Its connectivity with the spacious living room makes everything feel even more exceptional.

The living/dining room and very generous open kitchen with its 12-foot Carrera marble floating kitchen island are the stuff of dreams. Such a room is unique not just for its scale, but also for its ceiling height, glass curtain wall, and connected 500sf north-facing landscaped terrace. Your eyes are drawn to the unobstructed views, including those of Central Park and the East River, making it supremely practical and a visual joy, directly connecting you with the city at all times of the day and year.

All I described so far is only half of this home, as behind the ample kitchen are three bedrooms, two bathrooms, full-sized laundry, and a whole other 500sf terrace.

The primary bedroom has an exceptionally comfortable ensuite with a free-standing tub, enormous walk-in shower, walk-in closet with its own full wall of windows, and access to the second terrace.

The second and third bedrooms are similarly sized, so the only favoritism is in who gets the second entrance to the terrace.

The home's two terraces are similarly sized; each is large enough for dining tables of any size and both have open water views, with one facing North and the other facing South. So, you can pick the perfect terrace for the time of day, the wind direction, or simply your desired view.

This home is truly uniqueand after curating a database with over 9,000 terraced homes in Manhattan, we know unique from merely rare.

This home also offers crucial "quality of life" upgrades, including wide-plank hardwood floors, a state-of-the-art appliances package, heated floors in all three bathrooms, 5-zone HVAC with Google Nest thermostats, 5-zone SONOS media system controlled by Savant, full home WiFi (including both terraces), outdoor media, and perfectly cultivated landscaping with smart irrigation.

However, it does not stop there, because this unit transfers with a deeded parting spot. The building amenities include a residents' lounge with sundeck patio, a rooftop sundeck, bike storage, and concierge services. And when you consider you are only one block from the FDR, and less than 100 yards from the Q subway, you realize: this home is something special and worth your consideration.
