Description

With cinematic views spanning the Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan skyline, and New York Harbor, this spectacular 3,363-square-foot residence at Olympia was meticulously re-imagined by the team at NAINOA. No corner of this residence was ignored in the quest to build a truly singular residence in the sky. Outside, a large private river-facing terrace offers an unrivaled backdrop for indoor-outdoor living in one of Brooklyn’s most exciting new addresses. Entering through a gracious foyer complete with a custom marble mosaic floor, the lacquered gallery beyond reflects the changing light, from dawn to dusk. The paneled millwork is sized precisely to hide all interior doors, removing the noise and making the experience one of refined restraint. Beyond, a dramatic clay plaster great room wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass, frames the iconic vistas of the Brooklyn Bridge. A venetian plaster ceiling lifts the room and acts as a canvas for the ever-changing skyline. A spectacular 12’ travertine fireplace caps the room, ensuring that there truly is no bad view. The adjoining custom-designed kitchen has been lacquered to perfection making it both durable and beautiful. Appliances disappear behind paneled millwork, all except the custom Lacanche range and custom bronze hood. A sprawling great room provides ample space for both grand entertaining and intimate gatherings. The primary suite is conceived as a private sanctuary, occupying its own wing with an oversized walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bath clad in honed marble. The bathroom offers a freestanding soaking tub, a glass-enclosed steam shower with aromatherapy scents, brushed nickel fixtures, and a custom double vanity, evoking a serene, retreat-like ambiance. Two additional bedroom suites boast en-suite baths with mosaic tile floors, undermount tubs, and custom vanities. A flexible fourth bedroom or den captures views of the Manhattan Bridge and includes a sophisticated wet bar with Fior di Bosco stone, custom maple cabinetry, stainless sink, and a Thermador wine cooler—perfect for entertaining. Completing the home are a full laundry room with LG washer/dryer and a jewel-box powder room finished in honed African St. Laurent stone and white maple paneling. Three parking spots and two storage closets are included in this sale.
