About This Home

This impeccably renovated residence has been completely reimagined with an emphasis on flow, functionality, and refined, modern finishes.

The home opens into a spacious living and dining area centered around a restored, operable wood-burning fireplace, an increasingly rare luxury in Midtown. The proportions are comfortable and generous, offering an effortless layout for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen was rebuilt from the studs with custom millwork cabinetry, Silver Roots marble countertops, a centered cooktop, top-tier Miele appliances, and a dedicated chef's workspace.

Directly off the kitchen is a large pantry with extensive storage and a washer/dryer. The millwork continues seamlessly into this area, creating a clean, cohesive built-in look.

The redesigned floor plan includes a large primary suite with an expanded en-suite bathroom featuring double vanities, a walk-in shower, Florim large-format marble tile, Phylrich fixtures, matte-black hardware, and LED mirrors. The secondary bedroom offers a handmade thin-brick accent wall and a custom closet designed for flexible use. The second full bathroom was also fully renovated with upgraded materials and added cabinetry.

Additional features include refinished hardwood floors, low-VOC Benjamin Moore satin paint throughout, custom fitted closets, new through-the-wall A/C units, and a newly fabricated entry door modeled on the original but rebuilt with a sound-blocking core for enhanced quiet. The home is also fully outfitted with a Philips Hue smart lighting system, allowing complete control of light levels and ambiance. A private storage unit is included.

40 West 55th Street is a 1924 Rosario Candela-designed prewar condominium that underwent a $3.5M restoration featured in The New York Times. The building was returned to its original residential layout with upgraded mechanical systems, restored terrazzo lobby floors, and a Venetian-style fresco ceiling. Amenities include a full-time door attendant, elevator, and common laundry. Pets are welcome.

Just moments from Central Park, MoMA, Carnegie Hall, Rockefeller Center, and Fifth Avenue, this home offers an elevated and exceptionally convenient Midtown lifestyle.
