Penthouse iliyoko 150 East 73rd Street ni ghorofa ya kuvutia yenye nafasi ya ndani ya takriban futi mraba 4,600 na eneo la terrazzo la takriban futi mraba 4,000, yote ikiwa na mandhari ya digrii 360. Makazi haya yamerekebishwa upya kabisa na mbunifu maarufu Peter Pennoyer na mbunifu wa ndani anayependwa Daniel Romualdez.

Penthouse imezungukwa na terrazzo katika pande zote na ufikiaji wa moja kwa moja kutoka kwa vyumba vingi. Uipandaji wa mimea na awnings zinazohamashika huhakikisha faragha katika maeneo ya nje ambayo yanajumuisha pori lililofunikwa na fan ya dari na hita za infra-red kwa matumizi ya msimu mitatu. Mwangaza wa shaba unatoa mwanga kwa terrazzo.

Ghorofa hiyo ina vestibule ya lifti binafsi yenye sakafu ya muundo wa terra cotta inayoelekea kwenye jumba la kuingia lenye dari iliyotiwa sakafu za mti za parquet de Versailles. Jumba hilo linaelekea kwenye Sebule ya kukaa ya kona ya 22’ mraba yenye jiko la kuni na imezungukwa na terrazzo zinazopatikana kwa milango ya chuma ya Kifaransa ya urefu wote. Chumba cha Maktaba/Chumba cha Kulia kimepambwa kwa vitabu na kina jiko la mawe. Vyumba vyote viwili vina sakafu za mti wa herringbone na vinahudumiwa na pantry yenye bar ya mvua na friji ya divai.

Jiko la kuvutia la buluu la chuma limejaa mwangaza wa asili kutoka kwa madirisha yanayokabili terrazzo pande mbili. Kisiwa cha jikoni, kilicho na sinki kubwa ya galleria, kinatoa viti vya countertop na mwanga wa nikeli uliojumuishwa kwenye rack kubwa ya sufuria. Viko hapo ni slabs za jiwe zikiwa na kioo cha kale kama backsplash. Vifaa vinatolewa na Sub Zero na Wolf. Kuna oveni mbili za ukuta zenye convection na microwave. Kofia maalum ya kupikia yenye chuma cha pua kilichong'olewa na kupoliswa hutoa hewa ya kutolea nje. Jiko linaenea hadi kwenye chumba cha kifungua kinywa chenye mvuto kinachoweza kukalia watu sita na kina mlango wa Kifaransa unaoelekea kwenye terrazzo na BBQ ya gesi ya nje.

Suite ya chumba kikuu cha ghorofa ina vyumba viwili, bafu mbili nzuri za marmori, nafasi kubwa ya kabati na chumba cha kupumzika, vyote vikifunguka kwenye terrazzo binafsi. Katika sehemu ya chumba, pia kuna jikoni la usiku la urahisi na ofisi, yenye bafu nyingine, ambayo inaweza pia kutumika kama chumba cha kulala.

Ghorofa hiyo, inayomilikiwa na kurekebishwa kwa kipindi cha miaka minne na couple wa chic na wa kuvutia, ina vyumba vya ziada viwili vya kulala vyenye bafu katika sehemu ya mbele ya ghorofa inayofanya kama ofisi na chuo cha masomo chenye meza zilizojengwa na hifadhi. Vyumba hivi vinaweza pia kutumika kama vyumba vya kulala.

Vipengele vya ziada vya makazi haya ni pamoja na: chumba kizuri cha kufulia kilicho na tiles za Kimoja ya Kiarabu chenye sets mbili za washers na dryers za Miele, pamoja na sinki ya kufulia na mipango ya hifadhi, kupigia na kukausha; mifumo ya kisasa inayojumuisha: udhibiti wa mwanga wa Lutron QSX na kivuli unaojumuisha keypads za Alisse na Palladium; mfumo wa usambazaji na udhibiti wa Audio/Video wa Savant; mfumo wa simu za Panasonic za IP wenye intercom wa chumba na jengo; na Mfumo wa Mtandao wa Enterprise na Wi-Fi unaofunika ndani na nje ya makazi.

Kuna maeneo sita ya mfumo wa HVAC yenye unyevu. Joto la mvuke la jengo limejumuishwa katika mfumo wa kudhibiti hali ya hewa na convectors zilizofichwa kwenye ukingo.

Hakuna gharama iliyookolewa na hakuna maelezo yaliyopuuziliwa mbali katika ukarabati huu wa kufikiria ambao uko tayari kutambulika na mwenye nyumba mwingine ambaye atathamini kazi ya upendo ya miaka 4 iliyochukua kuunda makazi haya ya kushangaza.

150 East 73 iko kwenye kona ya 73rd Street na Lexington, karibu na Central Park na ununuzi wa Madison Avenue na katika moyo wa eneo la kihistoria la NYC Upper East Side lenye mikahawa na boutiques kwenye Avenue na mtaa wenye miti wa nyumba zilizogeuzwa kwenye 73rd St. Jengo hili ni co-op ya huduma kamili yenye wafanyakazi wakarimu na meneja anayeishi ndani.

The Penthouse at 150 East 73rd Street is a dazzling apartment with approximately 4,600 square foot interior living space and approximately 4,000 square feet of wrap terrace, all with 360-degree views. The residence was just completely re-imagined and renovated by legendary architect Peter Pennoyer and beloved interior designer Daniel Romualdez.

The penthouse is wrapped with terraces on all sides with direct access from most rooms. Parapet plantings and motorized awnings bring a sense of privacy to the outdoor spaces which include a covered porch with ceiling fan and infra-red heaters for three seasons use. Bronze sconces provide illumination for the terraces.

The apartment has a private elevator vestibule with terra cotta cabochon pattern floor leading to a vaulted entry gallery with parquet de Versailles oak floors. The gallery leads to a spacious, corner 22’ square Living Room with a wood burning fireplace and is surrounded by terraces accessed by full height metal French casement doors. An adjacent book lined Library/Dining Room features a stone bolection fireplace. Both rooms have oak herringbone floors and are served by a pantry with wet bar with wine refrigerator.

A stunning custom steel blue kitchen is filled with natural light from windows facing terraces on two sides. The kitchen island, with an oversized galley sink, has counter seating and nickel lights integrated into a signature overhead pot rack. The counters are stone slab with antique mirror backsplash. Appliances are by Sub Zero and Wolf. There are two wall ovens with convection and microwave. A custom range hood of brushed and polished stainless steel provides exhaust venting to the exterior. The kitchen expands into a charming breakfast room which seats six and has a french door leading to the terrace and an exterior gas BBQ.

The primary bedroom suite of the apartment consists of two bedrooms, two wonderful marble baths, generous closet space and a sitting room, all opening onto a private terrace. In the bedroom wing, there is also a convenient night kitchen and an office, with another full bath, that could also function as a bedroom.

The apartment, owned and renovated over the course of four years by a chic and charming couple, has two additional bedrooms with baths in the front, entertaining wing of the apartment which are currently being used as an office and a study with built in desks and storage. These rooms could alternatively also be used as bedrooms.

Additional features of the residence include: a beautiful Moroccan tiled laundry room with two sets of Miele washers and dryers, as well as a laundry sink and provisions for storage, ironing and drying; state-of-the-art systems including: comprehensive Lutron QSX Lighting and Shade control featuring Alisse and Palladium keypads; a Savant whole house Audio/Video distribution and control system; a Panasonic IP based phone system with room and building intercom; and an Enterprise Network and Wi-Fi system with coverage throughout the interior and exterior of the residence.

There are six split system HVAC zones with humidification. Building steam heat is integrated into the climate control system with perimeter concealed convectors.

No expense has been spared and no detail overlooked in this incredibly thoughtful renovation ready to be appreciated by another owner who will appreciate the 4 year labor of love it took to create this remarkable residence.
