ONE-OF-A-KIND PREWAR MASTERPIECE in the heart of Turtle Bay! Soaring 11-foot ceilings give this expansive 2 bedroom home a magnificent feeling of grandeur. An elegant entry foyer leads to the oversize living room, which features a working wood-burning fireplace, two exquisite chandeliers, oversize windows, and ample room for dining. The windowed chef's kitchen has been exquisitely renovated. It boasts all new stainless steel appliances including a hooded convection oven, a wine refrigerator with dual temperature zones for wine and champagne, custom built mahogany cabinetry, granite floors and countertops, and the wiring for a Miele Dual Coffee/Espresso Bar. The windowed bathroom has also been gut-renovated. It features hand-laid semiprecious stone tiling on the walls and floor, all new fixtures, and a heated towel rack. Both bedrooms are very generously proportioned and boast elegant wall moldings.
