The redesigned kitchen is open to the living area's huge west-facing bay and has all new soft-close walnut cabinetry, quartz counters, high-end stainless appliances and gas cooking. The updated bath has Kohler fixtures, glazed porcelain flooring and a deep soaking tub with glass subway tile surround. This sparkling turnkey property is 6 floors up in an historic, elevator building that has just undergone a $6 million renovation. It is professionally managed and pet friendly.
