About This Home
Impeccably designed as a luxurious aerie overlooking the gardens of the Museum of Modern Art, this turn-key 1-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom residence at the celebrated Museum Tower is exceptional through and through.
The result of a comprehensive gut renovation by Caplan Colaku Architecture and crafted to exacting standards, properties of this quality rarely become available on the resale market. Graciously scaled at 1,427 square feet, you enter the home and are greeted by a stunning powder room wrapped in Breccia Capraia marble with MGS fittings. The living and dining room is over 500 square feet and perfectly proportioned, with corner exposures overlooking MoMA’s landscaped gardens. A windowed kitchen features a built-in breakfast area, stainless steel countertops, custom catalyzed varnish cabinetry and millwork, and appliances from Miele and Sub-Zero. The home’s primary suite offers an oversized bed chamber with extensive teak wood millwork, a walk-through dressing room, and an en-suite primary bathroom with Thassos marble floors, back-painted glass, custom mirrored cabinets, and MGS fittings.
Museum Tower, located at 15 West 53rd Street in Midtown Manhattan, offers a suite of luxury amenities designed to provide residents with an unparalleled living experience. This 52-story condominium, designed by renowned architect Cesar Pelli, combines modern design with exceptional services including full-time concierge and doormen, elevator attendants and valets, and optional housekeeping and laundry services. A state-of-the-art fitness center is equipped with modern equipment, a Pilates room, sauna, steam room, and meditation areas. The building also features a wine tasting room and refrigerated storage, screening room, conference facilities, and a landscaped rooftop terrace offering stunning views of the MoMA Sculpture Garden and the city skyline. Pets are welcome, and the building includes a garage and a bike room for residents' convenience.
