Description

Mid Century Modern perfection in the iconic Astor Tower, designed and built by Bertrand Goldberg in 1963 on the NW corner of historic Astor and Goethe. Originally a highend hotel, until its conversion to condos in 1979, the hotel was frequented by celebrities Frank Sinatra, Audrey Hepburn and The Beatles, to name a few. Unit 14 AS is a sophisticated redesigned 2BD/2BA with floor to ceiling windows showcasing E, S and W views of the Lake and the City. This is a half floor unit, with glistening Italian porcelain tile floor in the living room and dining room and a lovely built-in Italian Scavolini cabinet. The Italian custom chefs kitchen features a Miele wall oven, Gaggenau electric cooktop, custom stainless countertop and a commercial refrigerator- you can imagine all of the lovely dinner parties that have taken place here. Walk down the gallery hallway toward the bedrooms-the 2nd bed/office has custom bookcases & a fun and convenient Murphy Bed.

A spacious primary bedroom, with dramatic Ripplefold draperies, opens to a stunning marble ensuite bath with double Duravit sinks, 2 Robern medicine cabinets, and wall mounted Duravit Phillipe Starck designed toilet. Custom doors have been sandblasted throughout and the laundry area has a vintage glass door from the original Astor Hotel! There are truly too many remarkable updates to list here (list of updates available upon request.) 24 hour door staff, exercise room, amazing rooftop, garage parking, stellar restaurants within walking distance. Youre going to want to see this glorious home!! (14B is also offered for sale by the sellers-use as a guest suite, office or possibly combine it with 14A for a 14th floor sanctuary)
