so i'm standing on the private terrace in a 10 million apartment in one of the most
unique buildings in the entire city and in this episode we are giving you an exclusive
first look at this one-of-a-kind luxury listing in new york city
welcome to 121 east 22nd street presented by toll brothers city living and designed by world
round architectural firm oma this futuristic luxury building rises 18 stories up from the
streets of new york city and offers a curated selection of amenities and stunning living spaces
in this video we're taking you inside to show you what it's like to live in one of manhattan's
premier luxury residences so starting off the tour of this futuristic building we are checking out
a 5 bedroom unit that's just under 4 000 square feet this one is currently off the market as you
can see it's not staged but when this was listed it was going for right about 10 million dollars
now the unique thing about this building is we are in the cross section of two super dynamic
neighborhoods here in the city flatiron and gramercy park and the terraces that come with
some of these units are i mean you're right in the heart of the city specifically this one if
you look out you can see the world famous madison square park clock tower which at one time was
actually the tallest building in the entire world you can see the empire state building sticking
out there looking uptown you see the newly built summit observation deck even the chrysler building
and then looking downtown you can just about make out the treetops of gramercy park
i think especially in a mid-rise building having all this terrace space is such a huge selling
point not to mention the unique architecture of this specific building even how you have these
cross beams here intersecting the floor-to-ceiling glass windows beautiful white oak floors below
us and actually let me show you the kitchen the kitchens in this building are so modern so sleek
you have black quartzite on the counter tops with that waterfall edge down to the floors i mean just
look how modern and sophisticated these kitchens are the appliance suite is all gagging out six
burner cooktop it's also minimally built even if you look up the lights or recess built into the
ceilings the finishes here are just exceptional so from this kitchen back into this great room
i really want to give you a more realistic look at what these units look like when they're staged so
we're going to actually head downstairs and check out one of these stage units currently for sale so
now we're chopping the price in half this unit's going for 5.2 million dollars is a three-bedroom
three-bathroom unit again with that outdoor space and here's a quick little tour coming on in it's
all open concept here in the living space if your dining room front and center with seating for six
all to my left is the living room space and i really like how they have these mirrors on
that far back wall really giving depth and volume to the space so making your way to the far back
you have your open concept kitchen again with the beautiful island front and center with that black
quartzite on the countertop with those waterfall edges stainless steel sink right front and center
with the fixtures and again all the suites in here in the kitchens are gagging out just look
how beautiful this gagging out kitchen is push the touch then rises right out of that countertop
you have six burners on the top oven down below the cabinets are all acid washed and again
everything is handless in here so just very sleek i also love how we have those led light
strips built right in so you have that down lighting on the counter top and here in the cook
space or lower that vent down and i'll show you the refrigerator oversized gag in our refrigerator
just everything in here is so minimal and modern and pretty timeless but i want to show you the
coolest feature again the terraces so here we have shuko doors leading out to one of your two
terraces in this unit so this one's just about 500 square feet this is technically the southern
tower again there's two towers and we're right in between lexington and park avenues on 23rd street
and i really love how you can look up and see that unique facade of this building you also have
over here the red brick of the building right next door giving it that classic new york city feeling
with that futuristic modern exterior that we have on the outside of this building i mean this
place is i want a place like this just because i have a dog you can put the astroturf out here
i really love the outdoor space in a new york city apartment it's almost like having
a front and a backyard it's pretty sweet but anyway back on inside before we head upstairs
i want to show you towards the front door we have a beautiful space for your laundry room
white quartzite on the countertop bosch appliances pretty standard all for the laundry room you have
your coat closet right off your front door and now this is the first of three guest bedrooms
very decent sized and the coolest part i showed you that first terrace
this is terrace number two in this apartment and this terrace faces the courtyard and here
you get that true appreciation for how unique the architecture is here at 121 east 22nd street
you have this expansive courtyard where you can see all your neighbors with their outdoor space
and i love how you can see how this building was just so integrated in with those classic
old school new york city pre-war buildings with that red brick and then that modern futuristic
feeling with the silver and the aluminum of this new development and even if you look down here
you can see that atrium when you first walk in where later we're going to show you all
the amenities this building is just stacked with top-line amenities but let's show you the rest
of this apartment so we'll keep this shut it's the middle of winter in new york city it's pretty cold
so that first guest bedroom and your bathroom is right at the end of this hallway here
i love how you have this statement piece this calcutta marble as the backsplash here
floating vanity i love the full length mirror here and you actually have a soaking tub here with this
frosted glass concealing it which is a pretty cool touch and making your way out gonna make our way
through this hallway and show you the upstairs i also love this this white oak paneling here
blocking off the staircase the whole staircase is actually white oak which i just love that
warm homey feeling then heading up this beautiful white oak enclosed staircase we're making our way
to the second level this duplex and i really love a duplex in the city because it really gives you
the feeling and the layout of a traditional house that just happens to be in manhattan
so welcome to the second bedroom floor-to-ceiling glass windows overlooking your terrace down below
i even like how you have the view of those older buildings across the street really giving you that
new york city feeling right in your face we wake up in the morning here we have a connecting
hallway with your walk-in closets and at the end you have your ensuite bathroom with more of that
beautiful calcutta marble in the backsplash here same soaking tub as downstairs with that frosted
glass and of course the floating vanity off your bathroom heading back through this second bedroom
gonna make our way back to the connecting hallway and here we have the primary suite in
this apartment facing south sun drenched you even have a third terrace that i totally forgot about a
third terrace overlooking your courtyard spacious sized bedroom you even have a nice walk-in closet
right here i love how you have the sun reflecting even off of the glass of your neighbors you always
have sunlight in this apartment and then of course we have the ensuite bathroom which has
beautiful finishes and the bathroom here in the primary suite has this beautiful calcutta marble

purchase in a building like this not only do you get an incredible living space but you also get
top of the line white glove amenities so let's go check those out now heading off of the lobby
you have travertine everywhere giving it a very minimal feeling which leads to your amenity floor
now check this space out this is actually a piece of art which was designed by the architect of this
building which can be morphed and moved into kind of any shape you'd like i thought this was pretty
cool and then right off of here this is the home theater for the building check this place out
orange everywhere and everything enough seating for all your friends you could properly screen a
film in here i think it just has a very cool futuristic ambiance you also have a wet bar
towards the back of the cinema so you can bring food here for entertaining drinks whatever you
want i really think this is a cool space that i would definitely utilize if i lived here
so leaving the theater i'll point out that we have the terrace here at the very bottom of the
atrium so if you look up again you can see the old buildings with the new design of 121 east 22nd the
building we're in and then behind me here you have a kids playroom actually so you can have
daycare come and watch your children while you're at work or if you're at home in the apartment i
like how they have that option further back on in the space this is the lounge area so you have
tons of seating clap on lights here you have your banquet table so you could rent all this out
and really host an event down here pretty much any party or gathering that you want
this is the space for it and then we even have a full kitchen so you could have catering come
