ROOMS
WITH A VIEW
The
Capri at 235 East 55th Street presents an intimate collection
of tower residences designed by Costas Kondylis. Containing
no more than three homes per floor, this exclusive dwelling
offers lucky buyers an abundance of deluxe features. Since all
40 homes are located from the 33rd floor up, the views of Central
Park and the East River from huge floor-to-ceiling windows are
unparalleled. Some have expansive terraces that call for glam
entertaining. These 1, 2 and 3BRs range in size from 651 to
1930 sf, and feature diagonally-laid maple hardwood floors throughout.
Gourmet kitchens have Sub-Zero, Miele and GE Profile appliances,
granite countertops and custom-designed Italian cabinetry. Crema
Marfil master baths come with oversized Neptune soaking tubs
as well as separate glass-enclosed showers. But, of course,
the instant you enter the new lobby with its rich wood-paneled
walls and posh marble floors, the Capri’s lustrous quality
will speak for itself. Prices begin at about $875,000.

“Right
now, the hottest thing in New York real estate is turnkey situations,”
says Frederick Peters, president of Warburg Realty. “New Yorkers
lead busy lives, so perfect condition sells. Whether it’s the
newest condominium with the best amenities, or a fabulous prewar apartment
with a beautiful restoration, everyone wants to arrive with just their
toothbrush. Whatever they may ultimately redo, they still want to
buy it perfect.” |
