32 W 40 ST

Fully furnished two-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex directly across from Bryant Park! Originally constructed in 1907 as The Engineers' Club, this magnificent Renaissance Revival masterpiece was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007 and designated a New York City Landmark in 2011. Residence 11B occupies a portion of the Club's original ballroom, which has been artfully restored to showcase its original wood Corinthian pilasters, expansive mirrored door frames, soaring 20-foot ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and an atmosphere of warmth, elegance, and timeless character unlike any other residence in the city. The gracious layout is designed for both comfortable living and effortless entertaining. Adjacent to the living room is a separate dining room enclosed by sliding glass doors, while the second bedroom - ideal as a guest room, home office, or den - features three oversized windows with southern and western exposures. A custom-designed closet sits between the two rooms, and the ensuite bath features sea-green glass tile, cream ceramic flooring, a custom vanity, full-height linen storage, and a glass-enclosed spa shower with four body jets. Beyond the original mirrored door frames is a spacious, windowed chef's kitchen, beautifully appointed with light oak cabinetry, granite countertops, a Viking range, a stainless steel Miele dishwasher, a Whirlpool refrigerator with an ice maker, a microwave, and elegant pendant globe lighting. The lofted primary suite overlooks the dramatic living space and offers a generous custom triple-sized closet, along with an ensuite spa bath featuring a deep soaking tub, rain shower fixtures, a custom mirrored vanity and a Toto Washlet bidet. There is abundant custom storage beneath the staircase and hardwood floors throughout.
