Antique-filled home lists for $4M -- and some treasures could be yours - New York Post

This apartment could be on brand for a high-minded buyer with a taste for the old world.

Brand designer Owen Coleman — whose decades-long work has touched the likes of Nespresso, Tylenol and Kraft — also had an eye for shaping the look of his New York City home, which has listed for $3.99 million.

Not only does the 2,584-square-foot lair come fully renovated, but its listing photos also show a dazzling trove of antiques — and some of them, should the new owner have the same old-world taste, can be included in the sale.

Flanking the bar in the living room, two 18th-century French gesso mirrors stand at a floor-to-ceiling height. Close by, two black carved rosewood columns separate the living and dining areas — and date to the 1800s, when British Army generals used them in field tents to decorate formal meetings. And in the master bedroom, the fireplace includes 15th-century forged iron work, plus a mantle made of delicate ancient stone.

If these one-of-a-kind gets don’t suit the fancy of the new owner, Coleman will simply have them removed — and take them with him.

It took more than a year and half for Coleman to renovate the three-bedroom East Harlem perch, at 1485 Fifth Ave., which is on the 27th floor and includes a roomy terrace. But filling it with drool-worthy decor came over the course of years. He sourced many of his pieces from the Park Avenue Armory’s Winter Show, as well as during world travels.

Other built-in perks abound, such as herringbone wood flooring.

The corner apartment’s bones also look old world, with built-in features including herringbone floors, custom white wood millwork, custom European white wood cabinetry and high ceilings.

Additional perks inside include sunrise and sunset views, floor-to-ceiling windows, a kitchen with a Miele cappuccino machine and Carrera marble counters, and a deeded parking space.

Building amenities include a gym, a children’s playroom, a 55-foot indoor heated lap pool and a residents’ lounge with a catering kitchen.

Michelle Bourgeois and Gina Kuhlenkamp of Sotheby’s International Realty — East Side Manhattan brokerage — have the listing.
