Interiors

Walls of glass promote constant connection with the outdoors. The chairs that flank the double-sided fireplace are Kenmare armchairs by Modloft.

A few steps down from the living room is the oversized screened porch with an imposing fireplace, which connects to a first-floor master bedroom. Cantilevered over the surrounding canopy, it has a tree house-like feel.

Main Bath

A cozy sitting room has symmetrical, built-in bookshelves.

The three-bedroom, three-bath home opens to travertine flooring. An aluminum grille divider echoes the ones on the facade, while built-in wood cabinetry fit the alcoves that frame the fireplace.

The wood panels also conceal easy-to-access storage. "Most people are surprised to find that there's actually storage there," says Preda.

The staircase in the apartment lobby is stylish and well-preserved, revealing the building’s 1960s-era construction.

The slatted exterior allows natural light to filter into the home while fostering a sense of protection.

A wood-paneled, built-in desk nook is surrounded by cabinets.

The minimalist wood-paneled kitchen features a waterfall island at the center. Full-height glass windows define the space.

The home’s east-west openings “allow for an interplay of sunlight to animate the space throughout the day.”

The sitting room juxtaposes a collection of books against landscape views for a “coming together of opposites,” the firm says.
