Description
Welcome to Residence 7D -- a rare, architecturally distinctive pre-war home in Carnegie Hill, originally designed by Studio 54's Bromley Caldari. Unlike any other residence in the building, this apartment was fully reimagined through a complete gut renovation, transforming the original line into a one-of-a-kind layout with expansive, open living spaces designed for modern life.
Spanning a generous footprint with soaring 9.5-foot ceilings, the home was later renovated by Doug Larson, who took Bromley Caldari's exceptional design and modernized it with great sensitivity -- preserving its architectural integrity while enhancing the very elements that make it so special. The result is a residence that feels both timeless and thoroughly contemporary. No detail has been overlooked.
The travertine-clad foyer introduces a suite of elegant entertaining spaces unified by custom millwork. A dedicated dining room is anchored by a dramatic teak wood wall, echoing the craftsmanship in both the foyer and expansive living room. An oversized family/media room adds versatility, allowing the home to host multiple gatherings simultaneously or to be sectioned for privacy.
Floor-to-ceiling closets are a defining feature of the residence, integrated seamlessly throughout: from the entry hall and corridor to the private bedroom wing, and within the primary suite as well as both secondary bedrooms. The primary suite is a serene retreat with a spa-like en-suite steam shower, while the additional bedrooms are equally refined with bespoke cabinetry and abundant storage.
The windowed, eat-in kitchen is thoughtfully appointed with a 42" Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, and a full-size Miele self-vented washer and dryer discreetly positioned beside the pantry. A fourth bedroom or office with its own full bath completes the wing, offering flexibility for guests, staff, or remote work.
Throughout the residence, new top-of-the-line LED lighting has been seamlessly integrated into a Lutron smart home system, allowing every room to be adjusted with the touch of a button or a simple smart speaker command.
Meticulously renovated and maintained in true move-in condition, the residence offers the polish and ease of a luxury hotel suite, while retaining the warmth and individuality of a private home.
