600 West 115th, Apartment 84 -- Elegant Mint Classic Five!
A proverbial Renaissance Man, Gaetan Ajello, who built The Luxor at 600 West 115th Street, was an inventor, scientist, artist, and, of course, architect. He built dozens of buildings up and down the Upper West Side before the dawn of the first World War and, in doing so, left a personal fingerprint on the neighborhood. While his architectural prowess is felt in all of his buildings, in The Luxor, the artist shines through – the building and this apartment are quite simply breathtakingly beautiful!
Enter into the square foyer – adorned with two sizable closets – and immediately catch the sky and gentle northern light through the oversized windows of the side-by-side Living Room and Dining Room. Beautifully proportioned, the extraordinary ceiling height, restored wood paneling, crisp original dentil molding, and intricate plaster detailing adds a sense of majesty to the voluminous space. Adjacent to the Dining Room is the tasteful Kitchen with open shelving, high-end appliances, and streamlined-yet-classic aesthetic. There is a hallway beyond the public rooms to the exquisitely renovated Bathroom and private Bedrooms. Each Bedroom is a corner room with double exposures letting in tremendous sunlight. The Bedrooms are graciously appointed with outfitted closets and wrapped in a serene color palate. The bones are nothing short of magnificent, the renovation is sophisticated and thorough, and the extras – the washer/dryer, the bespoke built-ins, the sumptuous ambiance – are “extra” indeed!
The Luxor is an intimate building a stone’s throw from Riverside Park, the subway, gourmet grocers, and fantastic dining options. Featuring a live-in superintendent, a restored lobby, bike and storage rooms, the address offers a combination of a boutique-building lifestyle, modern-day amenities, and an opulence of the bygone Beaux Arts movement. Come and see for yourself! This is a co-exclusive with The Millstein Group
