Description
Upon exiting the private elevator vestibule in Duplex PH11A, a grand double height gallery and staircase welcomes you home. The great room, with a fireplace and a piano alcove, is flanked by two terraces that are 234 SF and 380 SF, respectively. A dining room with access to both the eat in kitchen and great room allows for a formal or casual entertaining experience. A powder room is discreetly tucked away just off the gallery. Chevron and straight plank wood flooring run the length of the apartment as well as tall ceilings and detailed crown molding provide the perfect canvas for applying your own style.
The heart of Duplex PH11A is the windowed eat-in kitchen adjacent to the private dining room. The kitchen features cabinetry designed by Robert Couturier in collaboration with master carpenter, Christopher Peacock. The much loved and coveted French-made Lacanche gas range vented hood highlight Couturier's Parisian flair. Additional appliances include a Miele 30' wall oven, speed oven and warming drawer. Sub-Zero refrigeration and full height wine storage blend seamlessly with the custom cabinetry. Custom knobs and pulls designed by Robert Couturier complement the Statuarietto stone counter, backsplash and island.
The master bedroom suite is unlike any other in the building and in Manhattan. The romantic arched windows on three sides provide ample light and views making this bedroom truly unique and exceptional. There are three large closets and a windowed, five fixture bathroom clad in honed Bianco Crisium and Bardiglio Nuvoletto stone. The bath features a soaking tub, heated floors, steam shower, Lefroy Brooks fixtures and a separate TOTO water closet.
A night (or morning snack) kitchenette as well as large vented laundry room with sink are located near the secondary bedrooms which each have an en suite bath and ample closet space. The arched windows continue through the secondary bedrooms.
150 East 78th is a thoughtfully designed boutique building by Robert A.M. Stern Architects. Their timeless architectural approach is married perfectly to the interiors' prewar sensibility and Parisian flair of AD100 Hall of Fame designer Robert Couturier. The stately facade features distinctive handset Indiana limestone, patterned brick, and ornamental metalwork. Inspired by the neighborhood, Robert A.M. Stern Architects designed an exterior steeped in New York City Classicism. The 16-story building's overall aesthetic is refined and distinguished, highlighted by arched windows, limestone pilasters, and rich green metal and glass conservatories. The canopied entrance, located on 78th Street, fits in beautifully with the neighboring townhomes and treelined street.
Multiple levels of carefully curated amenities include: a regulation squash court; a regulation height basketball hoop; a golf simulator; a top tier fitness center with Technogym equipment; a private training/yoga room; a children's art and activity room; and the entertaining Parlor which has full height arched windows, a billiard table and catering kitchen. Additionally, a rooftop terrace with amazing views, limestone archways and an outdoor kitchen/grill provide space for dining and sitting by the gas fire pit.
