$749,000

Residence 5R at The Armory, 529 West 42nd Street, is a masterclass in architectural intentionality that gives new meaning to space, functionality, and living. Welcome to Residence 5R, a loft-like one bedroom offering approximately 1,100 square feet of expansive, open living. Defined by its impressive scale and thoughtful layout,… Read More the home delivers a rare sense of volume and flexibility not often found in Midtown homes like this, enriched by the warmth of southern exposure. As you enter past the long hallway entry gallery, the home opens into a soaring living space defined by 12 foot ceilings and massive 9 foot windows that frame an unobstructed, postcard perfect view of Hudson Yards and the Vessel. Seamlessly connected, the open chef's kitchen, an entertainer's dream, is anchored by a custom two tier island with African mahogany and cultured marble countertops. It is complemented by high gloss rosewood cabinetry, a Porcelanosa marble backsplash, and a full suite of Thermador appliances, including a six burner range, integrated wine cooler, refrigerator, and dishwasher, all thoughtfully incorporated into the design. As you make your way into the bedroom, positioned behind a set of thoughtfully designed floor to ceiling 9 foot French doors, you are led into a tranquil, sun soaked sanctuary that maintains a sense of intimacy without sacrificing scale. The bedroom features a true walk in closet, providing exceptional storage rarely found in a one bedroom of this size. From here, you also enjoy a direct view of Hudson Yards, the Vessel, and the Manhattan skyline. The spa-like bathroom is unlike anything typically found in a home of this scale, beautifully appointed with a deep soaking tub, separate open shower, Porcelanosa tilework, floating vanity, and a linen storage closet. It offers a true sense of retreat within the home. Additional highlights in Residence 5R include 5 inch Brazilian cherry plank floors, custom wall paneling, floor to ceiling storage with shoji inspired sliding doors, and a fully integrated LED lighting system with Lutron dimmers throughout. The Armory is a condop offering laundry on every floor, a full time doorman, resident superintendent, outdoor roof deck, bike storage, and additional storage in the basement. It is a legal live work space offering flexibility for a variety of uses, and the building allows subletting, pied a terres, and co-purchasing.
