Maligayang pagdating sa isang prestihiyosong kooperatiba na itinayo bago ang digmaan at natapos noong 1916 ng mga kilalang arkitektong sina Rouse at Goldstone, na nasa perpektong lokasyon sa kanto ng Madison Avenue at 72nd Street, isang bloke lamang mula sa Central Park! Sumasakop sa buong ika-11 palapag ng 31 East 72nd Street, ang maringal na tirahang ito na sariling tahanan ng isang designer at napakaganda ng pagkakaayos ay nag-aalok ng pambihirang pagkakataong magkaroon ng isang walang-kapintasang inayos na glamorosong tahanang may siyam na kuwarto, pati na rin ng isang makasaysayang ari-ariang maaaring maipamana sa mga susunod na henerasyon. Ang orihinal na ayos na may 13 kuwarto ay dating tahanan ng tanyag na pamilyang Rhinelander at kalaunan ay naging tirahan ng financier at industriyalistang taga-Wall Street na si J.W. Schiffer—talagang pambihira ang pinagmulan nito! Sa pamamagitan ng mariringal na kuwarto para sa pagtanggap ng mga panauhin sa magkabilang pakpak ng Grand Gallery at apat na kuwartong-tulugan na may mga pasadyang disenyo, mahusay nitong pinagsasama ang karangyaan ng panahong bago ang digmaan at ang makabagong kaginhawahan ng isang marangyang pamumuhay.

Ang tirahang ito ay bunga ng dalawang taong renovasyon kung saan pinagsama ang dalawang apartment upang lumikha ng isang natatanging tahanang may kalidad na karaniwang makikita sa Architectural Digest. Taglay nito ang matatayog na kisame, marangyang lawak, mariringal na proporsiyon, at mga tanyag na tanawin mula sa tahimik na mataas na palapag, na nakaharap sa hilaga, timog, silangan, at kanluran upang maligo sa likas na liwanag ang bawat kuwarto.

Pagbukas ng elevator sa 45 talampakang Grand Gallery na nilatagan ng marmol mula Namibia, kapansin-pansin agad ang nakamamanghang dating ng tahanan. Dinisenyo ang Gallery upang paglagyan ng mga likhang-sining at pagdausan ng mga salu-salong may hapunang istilo-banquet at mga pagtanggap ng panauhin. Hinahati nito ang tahanan sa dalawang maingat na idinisenyong pakpak na nagbabalanse sa pormal na pag-aaliw ng mga bisita at sa maginhawang pang-araw-araw na pamumuhay.

Nagtatampok ang Pormal na Pakpak ng simetrikong Sala na may sentrong fireplace na pinapainit ng kahoy, antigong mantel na marmol na gawa sa France, at dalawang malalaking bintana. Mayroon din itong dalawang salon area, grand piano, at orihinal na sahig na mahogany. Sa kabilang panig ng Gallery ay isang maringal na Pormal na Dining Room na may gawang-kamay na aparador ng mga aklat sa pagitan ng tatlong bintanang nakaharap sa silangan. Sama-sama, ang mga kuwartong ito ay lumilikha ng perpektong tagpuan para sa mga hindi malilimutang pagtitipon.

Ang maringal na Primary Suite na nasa sulok ay nag-aalok ng nakakabighaning mga tanawin ng Madison Avenue, isang payapang kanlungan, at napakaraming pasadyang aparador. Kumpleto ang santuwaryong ito sa marangyang pasadyang banyong spa na marmol, na may malalim na banyera, mga kabit mula sa Waterworks, dobleng lababo, at pasadyang kabinet. Ang ikalawang Bedroom Suite ay pribado at nagtatampok ng kaakit-akit na mga detalyeng arkitektural, banyong marmol na ensuite, at walk-in closet. Dati itong nagsisilbing Library. Isang Mud Room/Cloak Room ang kumukumpleto sa pakpak na ito.

Ang puso ng tahanan ay ang maluwag na Kusinang may Kainan, na may sentrong isla na gawa sa Calacatta marble at may mga upuan, pati na rin banquette na kayang paupuin ang walong tao. Taglay nito ang mga de-kalidad na kasangkapan, pasadyang kabinet na inangkat mula sa ibang bansa, at pribadong service elevator para sa walang kahirap-hirap na catering at paghahatid.

Sa likod ng mga pintuang French na gawa sa kamay na bakal at salamin ay ang Impormal na Pakpak, na nagtatampok ng napakagandang Great Room na may mga bahagyang tanawin ng Central Park at ng dramatikong skyline ng midtown. Kamakailan lamang ay inayos nang may pino at maingat na panlasa ang sopistikadong Butler’s Pantry at dalawa pang Bedroom Suite, na kapwa nasa sulok ng gusali—kabilang ang isa na may fireplace na pinapainit ng kahoy. Kumpleto sa turnkey residence na ito ang laundry area na may imbakan, washer/dryer na may vent, at makabagong HVAC system na may walong kontrol sa klima.

Ang maringal na gusaling gawa sa limestone ay ginawaran ng American Institute of Architects ng Award for Excellence noong 1918 dahil sa simple at marangal nitong estilo. Matatagpuan ang 31 East 72nd Street sa Upper East Side Historic District. Isa itong pribadong kooperatibang may puting-guwantes na serbisyo, 24/7 na doorman, residenteng superintendent, elevator na may attendant, imbakan ng alak, at dalawang pribadong storage bin na kasama sa paglilipat ng ari-arian. Ilang sandali lamang ang layo ng mga mansiyon ng Ralph Lauren na nagsisilbing flagship store—kabilang ang dating Rhinelander Mansion—mga haute couture boutique, magagandang restawran, mga museo at gallery na kilala sa buong mundo, at Central Park.
