The soft crackle and heat emanating off the marble-clad wood-burning fireplace anchors a 22 foot wide southern facing great room in a custom renovated three bed, two-and-a-half bath triplex with two large private outdoor spaces.

A renovation like no other, in a home that has opportunities ideal for those who like to plant and enjoy outdoor space.

Inspired by art and architecture from Italy, throughout the property you will find many lovely touches. These include rooms inspired by Pompeii, hand painted wall ornaments including 24 karat gold leaf, and exposed wooden rafters.

While many people say 'no detail has been overlooked,' we think you will be truly shocked by the details here, which "they" didn't even know to look for. Your chef's kitchen features Yellow River marble from Brazil. There are custom cabinets and multiple spice racks. A dish dryer is cleverly installed above the sink, and a table on wheels is artfully built under the front counter to serve as both a serving station and a barricade to the open chef's kitchen when cooking for parties. Refrigerator by Liebherr, double-door dishwasher and stove by Fisher & Paykel.

Each private outdoor space is rich with plants, light, and stories. In the southern facing terrace off the Living Room, you are invited to a perfect location for a cup of coffee or a conversation. The southern exposure looks unto the backs of private backyards on the seminary block in Chelsea.

The large living room floor has an eight person dining room table and a grand piano, as well as closets and a powder room.

Up one flight you will find two bedrooms with southern exposure, great closets, and a bathroom with gorgeous tiles, inspired by the beaches of the Mediterranean.

The primary suite is on the top level. You will enjoy maximum privacy and a skylight, as well as an extensive private outdoor area off of the bedroom. From this outdoor space you will enjoy a panoramic view, from the river to the west, to the Empire State Building to the North, while enjoying a surprisingly quiet and private area.

Many cherished memories have been made in this elegant space. Now we invite you to cook your feast, play your songs, and create your own memories in your new large three bedroom home.
