JUST REDUCED! A gracious high-floor, sundrenched 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with windowed office in excellent condition at Gotham Towne House, a full-service cooperative at the corridor of Midtown East and the Upper East Side with maintenance that includes utilities. Residence 17DE at 153 East 57th Street offers all South-facing exposures, a fabulous custom Italian eat-in kitchen and split bedrooms with a marvelous and massive primary suite and abundant storage throughout.

Warm sunlight pours in through a wall of windows that hug the corner of the building's eastern turret, framing the living room. At your feet, brand new light-stain 7" wood floors extend in every direction and create an airy and light ambiance of space and tranquility. Off of the principle entertaining area, a custom kitchen has been appointed in lacquered Italian cabinetry and drawers with soft close and geometric glass-tile backsplash. The appliance suite includes a Bertazzoni stainless steel gas range and oven, integrated Liebherr refrigerator and freezer with icemaker and double freezer drawer as well as two dishwasher drawers by Fisher & Paykel. There is even a dedicated microwave cabinet, coffee counter as well as a wraparound bar for casual meals or entertaining. The bar includes an undercounter stainless wine refrigerator by Marvel and additional cabinetry and storage for glassware.

Ideally configured, the entertaining area separates the two bedrooms which sit on opposite ends of the home. A glorious king-sized primary suite occupies the western wing and is equipped with an array of customized closets including a walk-in. At the far corner, there is a perfectly secluded windowed office currently in use as a charming sitting room with built-in bookcases. The room can easily be outfitted for use as a more conventional work-from-home setup, nursery or additional walk-in closet, as per your needs. Rounding out the primary suite, the oversized designer en-suite primary bathroom is a spa-like experience, clad in striking black square tile with gold accents and adorned with a floating black lacquered Italian vanity with gold inlaid basin and matching mirror. The fixtures are all Duravit and include a hatbox toilet and deep soaking tub with rain shower and glass semi-enclosure. A dedicated linen closet provides additional storage for all of your toiletries. The second bedroom is currently in use as a den/full-sized home office with a built-in desk but is easily returned to a full-time bedroom, if needed. Servicing the ancillary bedroom and common areas, there is a second full bathroom in all neutral ceramic tile with large stall shower and Italian-imported square sink basin, custom vanity and cabinetry.

Air conditioning is through-the-wall, and there is an oversized coat closet as well as utility closet for additional storage needs. Every inch of this home has been perfectly utilized and intuitively designed.
