870 United Nations Plaza   Unit 9F

Sun-soaked and palatial, Residence 9F meets even the most demanding expectations of luxury. Floor to ceiling windows showcase stunning water views and some of New York's most iconic buildings and bridges from every room. Between the sheer volume of natural light streaming in from your expansive east and south-facing exposures along with the generous layout (over 2,000 square feet), it's no wonder that the F-line is the most sought after at this esteemed complex.

Currently configured as a sprawling two bedroom, 9F was originally built as a three-bedroom home and can easily (and inexpensively) be returned to its former configuration (see alternate floor plan). In either arrangement, the space is airy and generously appointed. Upon entry, the oversized foyer flows seamlessly into your impressively grand living and dining areas, ideal for entertaining. When your dinner guests are done taking in the show stopping views, they'll notice top-of-the-line upgrades and thoughtful design choices around every corner.

Nowhere is this more evident than in the chef's kitchen. A full-sized wine cooler, dual ovens, Viking refrigerator and Miele dishwasher leave little to be desired. Under cabinet lighting upon subway tile backsplash and ample counter space provide a perfect setup for the industrious home cook. The charming breakfast nook boasts more seductive river views and the tranquil UN Gift Garden in the fore.

With a surplus of closet space and custom bookcases throughout, 9F's floor plan is as practical as it is elegant. Immaculate hardwood flooring and custom lighting reify a space that is chic and modern, while electric shades line your panoramic windows. There is an inviting home office setup off the foyer as well as a bespoke bar setup just across the hall, for subscribers of the work hard, play hard lifestyle.

Full second bath and custom wooden built-ins line the hallway enroute to what is perhaps the best room in the home. The primary suite in 9F has been fully renovated to maximize space and to provide an uncompromisingly lavish living quarter for one lucky shareholder. There is square footage aplenty for private seating, chaise lounge, vanity and king bed. A lovely ensuite primary bathroom boasts a mirrored dressing area as well as custom marble sink.
