Situated in Midtown Manhattan is 333 West 56th Street, the former home of the late John Barrett, the renowned hair stylist responsible for the creation of the ever-iconic “Bergdorf Blonde” look.
With notable high-profile clients such as Princess Diana, Martha Stewart, Reese Witherspoon, and Bette Midler, Barrett’s ability to create chic hairstyles was matched by his interior design skills, as exemplified by his impressive home.
Upon entry, you are greeted by the impressive view of the Midtown skyline, which is beautifully displayed through eight casement windows. The 10th floor prewar condo, previously featured in an Architectural Digest and this Robb Report article, has 2 spacious bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
The stunning 1,658-square-foot home is the perfect place to entertain guests, with a sizable dining room table that seats 10.
This luxurious residence also features a guest suite, featuring a marble bathroom adorned with upscale fixtures and complemented by a spacious walk-in shower, all within its generously sized layout.
The elegant chef's kitchen boasts high-end appliances, complemented by white lacquer cabinets that harmonize seamlessly with Carrera marble countertops and backsplash.
For evening meals in warmer weather, the private south-facing terrace is located just off of the kitchen.
Additionally, there are several notable elements within the home including its inviting private library, equipped with built-in shelving. From its highly-coveted location to its impeccable design, it is clear why the late hairstylist chose to call 333 West 56th Street his home.
