Description
An already charming residence with an immaculate indian limestone facade was reimagined by its owner who transformed it into a one-of-a-kind, glorious residence that reflects both the sophistication and elegance of a luxurious modern home with distinctly European allure and sensibility.
With interiors by Achille Salvagni and custom finished by Italian artisans, this new standard bearer consists of 9,153 sq. ft. above grade (12,693 sf including cellar and sub cellar).
The cellar floor is an amalgam of dedicated spaces for sports and wellness, representing both historical and modern luxury: a swimming pool with counter-current swimming, relaxation area with loungers and bar, an enclosed gym, and a spa area with sauna, hammam and emotional shower plus a changing room and bath.
Through the wrought iron entrance on the street level, one finds a handsome vestibule, a receiving gallery, powder room, a distinguished garden facing library with an adjacent study.
One level up the ribbon-like sultry architectural staircase that connects all floors, a large landing leads to grand antique marble portals and mahogany doors that open onto two large rooms: a formal salon facing the street, and an informal living room in the rear. A powder room is located off the main hall.
The second floor replicates the layout of the first, with a street-facing room for formal receptions and a large kitchen with pantry to the rear for everyday affairs.
The dining room is a sophisticated environment. It is designed to evoke the design and lines of an orangery, through the use of thin brass strips that mark the walls covered with fabric, decorated with small brass plaques, and the inclined flaps in the shape of a pavilion with a brass and onyx chandelier at the top, supported by an elegant lattice of brass rods.
The kitchen is preceded by a pantry. Providing a gathering area for family and friends is a comfortable breakfast/small meals corner that overlooks a bow window. The gourmet kitchen area itself is covered in brushed black stained ash and has top of the line equipments plus a stunning wine cellar. The powder room on the second floor is designed around the sculptural marble sink.
The 3rd, 4th and 5th floors house the bedrooms, each with ensuite bathrooms and wardrobes.
On the third floor there are two spacious bedrooms. The first faces the street, with walls completely covered in light oak except for the ceiling. The second bedroom is designed as a media room but can easily be converted into a bedroom.
The three bedrooms on the 4th floor have ensuite bathrooms and wardrobes. They feature "Versailles" wooden floor with squares and base cladding of the walls in light oak, a dark wood strip underlines the passage from the wooden base to the upper part of the walls. The respective bathrooms are treated differently for each of the suites with a selection of precious marbles and original stones. The shower and toilet doors are in crystal with bronze frame and brass inserts.
The 5th floor is a single full-floor grand suite. From the atrium of the staircase with niches covered in red fabric, through a large grand antique marble portal with a mahogany door, you pass the dressing room/corridor linking the primary bedroom and bath.
The primary bathroom is simply magnificent, flooded with light from enormous windows overlooking a large terrace. A sculptural basin constitutes its fulcrum, carved out of solid statuary marble...like a central Roman basin. Glass doors with the usual bronze and brass frame, give access to the toilet and showers. Statuary marble double sink and doors in nickel silver finish complete this stunning space.
The roof top represents a splendid view of the city which, enhanced by the greenery, becomes a privileged place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. The terrace is accessed from the interior vestibule with a glass body that follows the curve of the staircase and allows light to penetrate the residence.

1/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI just read my past review of this school from July 2015. To be honest after everything I have heard about the school now I came to the conclusion that students and some parents are placing the blame on the teachers because they do not want to admit to themselves their child is 90% of the problem. Yes, some (and when I say some I am only referring to maybe 2 or 3) teachers may need to stop lowering their level to the students when it comes to confrontation with students, but this school can still be a top school. Do not be deterred from sending your child here because of a few bad seeds who prefer to cut class and bad talk the teachers. What the school needs to do is do what they were doing when my daughters attended here and that is to start weeding out the bad seeds. I did realize when my second daughter started to attend here there were so many students from Harlem here and guess where those students are now because they didn’t do what they were suppose to do when they attended here? Half of the females my daughter was friends with are now mothers at the ages 21. Half of the guys are with low paying jobs, still living with their mothers, or are in jail! So what we should blame the teachers for that too? My now 23 year old daughter graduated from this high school a half of a year early and has learned a lot. I mean she had a rough last year here because of her attitude and 1 teacher she just could not get along with, but other then that I’d say her time at the school was a success. She is in a high paying career making more than 3 times the NYC 15 dollar minimum wage. My other daughter left in grade 11 because we moved and she was hanging with the wrong (Harlem) kids. Don’t get me wrong, I am not suggesting people from Harlem are the cause of this school going down a bit, but the majority of the Harlem students that came into this school the year my second daughter started to attend were no bueno. My second daughter is now 21. She graduated a semester early from college. She still needs a little guidance here and there, but she can financially support herself. With that said I still like the school. Right now my son is in a school that is rated 7/10, but if I ever had to move back to NYC I would consider putting him in this school.Parent Review3y ago - Jhs 167 Robert F Wagner

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is absolutely horrible there are fights everyday and no one gets suspended but people get suspended for skipping afterschool that is optional and teachers don’t care about the students, the education sucks the environment sucks and there is so much harassment and bullying and the dean doesn’t do anything to prevent it honestly the worst decision of my life putting this school on my list. Also if your new there gonna try to make it all fun but once you reach 7th grade its hell.Student Review1mo ago - East Side Elementary School, PS 267
