MGA OPEN HOUSE AY SA PAMAMAGITAN LAMANG NG APPOINTMENT! Dumadaloy ang sikat ng araw sa halos 30 talampakang salaming nakaharap sa timog ng magandang ni-renobang tahanang ito. Dahil walang sagabal ang tanawin, nagkakaroon din ito ng dagdag na privacy, bukod pa sa mga bagong-bagong sahig at pribadong balkonahe. Napakadali ng pamumuhay sa lungsod.

Pinag-uugnay ng banyo ang kapansin-pansing itim-at-puting paleta: Imperial Bianco Bevel Gloss subway tile, matte black porcelain na sahig, at 16-pulgadang Kohler Vox vessel sink na nakapatong sa itim na vanity. Kumpleto ang mala-spa nitong dating sa pamamagitan ng soaking tub at rainfall shower na napapalibutan ng salaming European at may Kohler chrome controls, kasama ang TOTO Aquia dual-flush toilet at fully recessed na LED medicine cabinet.

Nagpapatuloy sa buong unit ang mga upgrade para sa smart home: recessed lighting na kontrolado ng Lutron sa kusina, foyer, at banyo; Nest thermostat; mga motorized shade na may window screen; custom na mga closet; at LG washer/dryer na nasa loob mismo ng unit. Na-upgrade rin maging ang pintuan sa harap, na may sound-dampening rating na STC 39—mas mataas kaysa sa pamantayang STC 35 ng industriya—at bagong Falcon MA531 mortise lock.

Maluluwag ang mga sukat sa buong unit. Kapwa kayang paglagyan ng sala at kuwarto ng malalaking muwebles nang may natitirang espasyo, habang nagbibigay ang mga pintuang walong talampakan at matataas na kisame ng maaliwalas at marangal na pakiramdam. Nasa ikatlong palapag ang unit, na nagdaragdag ng higit na katahimikan at privacy.

Nagtatampok ang kusina ng fully integrated na SMEG suite—wall oven, 5-burner gas cooktop, at dishwasher—mula sa Italyanong brand na kilala sa elegante nitong disenyo, bukod sa stainless refrigerator na Liebherr na may built-in ice maker, bagong range hood, at Corian island na may malalim na integrated sink at Grohe Minta faucet.

Itinayo noong 2011, may 76 na tirahan ang Murano sa loob ng 12 palapag. Tinatamasa ng mga residente ang 24/7 concierge service, full-time resident manager, fitness center, lounge, hardin sa ground floor, at pribadong rooftop terrace na may mga gas grill. Tinatanggap ang mga alagang hayop.

Napansin ng kritiko sa arkitektura na si Carter Horsley na makikita ang inspirasyon ng pangalan ng gusali—ang isla ng Venice na tanyag sa paggawa ng salamin—sa pabagu-bagong kulay ng ilaw sa curtain wall at lobby ng Murano. Ipinagpapatuloy pa ng pasukan ang temang ito, na napalilibutan ng “moat” na puno ng tubig at tinatawiran ng maliliit na footbridge, habang may mga nakalubog na garden bed sa tabi ng sidewalk.

Ilang hakbang lamang mula sa mga tindahan at restawran sa Vernon Boulevard, dalawang bloke mula sa Gantry Plaza State Park, at malapit sa Trader Joe’s, Target, at bagong-bagong Vibe Fitness sa kabilang kalsada. Madali rin ang pagbiyahe: 10 minutong door-to-door na biyahe papuntang Grand Central sakay ng 7 train, o isang magandang tanawin habang bumibiyahe sa NYC Ferry.

OPEN HOUSES BY APPOINTMENT ONLY! Sunlight pours through nearly 30 feet of south-facing glass in this beautifully renovated home, with an unobstructed exposure that adds extra privacy, plus brand-new floors and a private balcony. It's effortless city living.

Proportions are generous throughout. The living room and bedroom both fit large-scale furniture with room to spare, and eight-foot doors alongside soaring ceilings add an airy, elevated feel. The unit sits on the third floor, adding an extra layer of quiet and privacy.

The kitchen features a fully integrated SMEG suite (wall oven, 5-burner gas cooktop, dishwasher) from the Italian brand known for its stylish design, plus a Liebherr stainless refrigerator with built-in ice maker, a new range hood, and a Corian island with deep integrated sink and Grohe Minta faucet.

The bathroom pairs a striking black-and-white palette: Imperial Bianco Bevel Gloss subway tile, matte black porcelain floors, and a 16" Kohler Vox vessel sink atop a black vanity. A soaking tub and rainfall shower, enclosed in European glass with Kohler chrome controls, complete the spa-like feel, alongside a TOTO Aquia dual-flush toilet and a fully recessed LED medicine cabinet.

Smart-home upgrades continue throughout: Lutron-controlled recessed lighting in the kitchen, foyer, and bath; a Nest thermostat; motorized shades with window screens; custom closets; and an in-unit LG washer/dryer. Even the front door was upgraded, with sound-dampening rated STC 39 (well above the industry-standard STC 35) and a new Falcon MA531 mortise lock.

Built in 2011, Murano holds 76 residences across 12 floors. Residents enjoy 24/7 concierge, a full-time resident manager, a fitness center, lounge, ground-floor garden, and a private rooftop terrace with gas grills. Pets are welcome.

Architecture critic Carter Horsley has noted the building's namesake, Venice's glassmaking island, echoed in the color-shifting lighting on Murano's curtain wall and lobby. The entrance carries the theme further, wrapped in a water-filled "moat" crossed by small footbridges, with sunken garden beds along the sidewalk.

Steps from Vernon Boulevard's shops and restaurants, two blocks from Gantry Plaza State Park, and close to Trader Joe's, Target, and the brand new Vibe Fitness across the street. Commuting is effortless too, with a 10-minute door-to-door ride to Grand Central on the 7 train or a scenic trip on the NYC Ferry.
