138 E 50th Street #17B

Unit 17B is a 1-bedroom and 1.5-bathroom residence, designed by Champalimaud, the globally renowned luxury interior architecture studio. The unit is located at The Centrale, a 71-story condo building built in 20219 that mirrors the atmosphere of a luxurious boutique hotel. Throughout the home, floor-to-ceiling windows with northern exposures bring abundant natural light to each room. The chef’s kitchen features honed Capri marble countertops that elegantly continue into the backsplash and waterfall kitchen island, which offers comfortable space for barstool seating. The kitchen’s refined aesthetic is complemented by custom white oak millwork cabinetry that seamlessly integrates a full Gaggenau appliance package, including an under-the-counter wine refrigerator, and Dornbracht fixtures throughout. The well-proportioned bedroom comfortably accommodates a king-size bed and features an en-suite bathroom designed to imitate a spa-like retreat. In the bathroom, Bianco Dolomiti radiant heated floors add warmth underfoot, while luxury Marno Illusion marble frames a beautiful glass shower. A custom vanity, complete with rift-cut wood veneer, showcases exceptional craftsmanship and is complemented by top-of-the-line Kallista and Dornbracht fixtures. The powder room introduces a bold contrast to the residence’s light and airy aesthetic with striking Nero Maquina marble. Its Cobalt Flash marble-wet wall and ebony-stained oak vanity create a dramatic focal point. The residence also features soaring 9’9” ceilings, white oak flooring, a Nest Learning Thermostat, and a Bosch washer and dryer. The Centrale offers a myriad of unique features, such as its Porte-Cochère, which spans from 50th Street to 49th Street, and an elevated outdoor garden terrace, a highly unusual offering for Midtown Manhattan. The amenity spaces feature beautiful lounges with soaring ceilings, a catering kitchen, dining room, yoga studio, and a spectacular 75-foot lap pool that overlooks the cutting-edge gym, blending the charm of Art Deco architecture with contemporary elements. The grand amenity spaces are personalized with handmade artwork, distinctive marbles, natural stones, and dramatic light fixtures.
