Property Description
Live Artfully, Love Where You Live - MoMA Views in a Timeless Landmark Discover a rare opportunity to own a gorgeously renovated 1-bedroom, 1-bath residence at the Rockefeller Apartments-a celebrated icon of International Style architecture in the cultural heart of Manhattan. Perched above the MoMA Sculpture Garden, this south-facing home features soundproofed, updated windows that frame sweeping skyline views and flood the interiors with all-day natural light. Motorized blackout shades in both the living room and bedroom provide comfort, privacy, and protection for the home's elegant finishes. The closed kitchen is a blend of function and design, outfitted with state-of-the-art stainless steel appliances and wrapped in exquisite cork wallpaper by Holly Hunt-an unexpected touch of texture and sophistication that transforms a utilitarian space into a statement. In the living room, recessed lighting, refined moldings, and bay windows bring architectural interest and warmth. A custom ventless fireplace creates a cozy focal point, while four integrated ceiling speakers and a built-in Sonos sound system elevate the ambiance-perfect for both relaxing evenings and stylish entertaining. This space features a motorized blackout shade, while the bay windows are also equipped with blackout coverings-ensuring your guests enjoy a seamless, restful night's sleep. The marble-clad bathroom evokes a boutique hotel experience, showcasing a sculptural vanity by award-winning designer Rodolfo Agrella, complemented by flattering lighting and well-placed mirrors. The tranquil bedroom, framed by architectural molding and offering two generous closets, becomes a restful haven thanks to motorized blackout shades that ensure deep, uninterrupted sleep. Located just five blocks from Central Park and steps from MoMA, Broadway theaters, Fifth Avenue shopping, and Midtown's finest dining, this home places you at the intersection of culture, design, and sophistication. Once home to luminaries like publisher Eltinge F. Warner and playwright Benjamin M. Kaye, the Rockefeller Apartments continue to attract a community of visionaries and creatives. Whether you're starting a vibrant new chapter or seeking a perfectly placed pied-à-terre, this residence offers more than just a home-it offers a lifestyle curated for those who live artfully. Your city. Your canvas.
