Description

On a high floor with unobstructed eastern views and lots of sunlight, the minimalist vibe this 1 bedroom gives off is in part due to the tons of smart storage choices that were included in its update.

The bleached oak cabinets with Caesarstone counters, including a huge waterfall peninsula are matched with top-of-the-line appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and Miele dishwasher. The bedroom feels very zen, can accommodate a king bed and much more. In addition to the usual closets there is a wall of hidden storage the length of this 17ft room.
The bathroom is white and bright and tastefully tiled with a deep soaking tub and under-sink storage.
Each room offers unexpected luxury touches and welcome surprises including custom rift oak wall panels, and custom-made deep closets with drawers and lighting. The updated electrical also includes recessed and mood lighting with dimmers. There is wide plank bleached white oak flooring throughout. This unit is a MUST SEE.
