Property Description

This spectacular custom-designed residence offers unparalleled flexibility and the warm, inviting ambiance of a true home-perfect for both everyday living and elegant entertaining. Bathed in natural light, thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows showcasing open north, west, and south-facing views, this stunning home features three spacious bedrooms, a library (or fourth bedroom), two expansive living/entertaining spaces, a formal dining room, four full bathrooms, and a versatile bonus room ideal for an office or media room. Spanning just shy of 3,200 square feet, this residence seamlessly blends gracious living with refined entertaining, elevated by designer finishes and exquisite custom built-ins.
Upon arrival, a semi-private landing welcomes you into a gracious gallery that leads to two distinct wings.

Casual Elegance Meets Everyday Comfort: The first wing is dedicated to comfortable everyday living. A chef's dream, the Poggenpohl kitchen is outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances, abundant counter space, and sleek modern finishes. Adjacent to the kitchen, the great room provides an inviting setting for casual dining and relaxed lounging-a natural gathering place that effortlessly becomes the heart of the home. This side also houses two well-appointed bedrooms, each offering generous closet space, as well as two full bathrooms (one ensuite).

Refined Spaces for Grand Entertaining: The second wing is designed for sophisticated entertaining, featuring an elegant living room and a separate formal dining room and a Library which are thoughtfully designed for hosting unforgettable gatherings. The sumptuous primary suite is a private retreat, boasting two spacious walk-in closets and a luxurious five-fixture marble bathroom with dual vanities, an oversized soaking tub, and a glass-enclosed shower.

The Arcadia is an exclusive boutique condominium with just 48 residences, offering an intimate living experience. Recently transformed with impeccable attention to detail, the building's hallways, lobby, and amenity spaces have been beautifully reimagined. Residents enjoy white-glove services, including a 24-hour doorman and concierge, ensuring every need is met. State-of-the-art amenities include a fully equipped gym with a separate yoga/ballet studio, a playroom, and an elegant library/entertainment suite with a catering kitchen-ideal for hosting guests. Perfectly located near the Second Avenue Q subway line and FDR Drive, transportation is seamless. Additionally, the home is moments from Carl Schurz Park, offering a picturesque setting for daily walks or runs. Transfer fees equal 12 months' common charges. Taxes advertised include primary residence tax abatement as of February 15, 2025.
