Much like baking, home buying in New York City is all about finding the perfect mixture. Most buyers want a good amount of space, a move-in-ready design they love, and a great location to make their time in the Big Apple sweet. James Beard award-winning pastry chef Melissa Tosi and her husband, restaurateur Will Guidara, have much experience with getting recipes right and with NYC living. The culinary power couple just listed their bright Chelsea condo for $5.895 million and it’s certainly a treat.
Tosi founded the popular Manhattan bakery Milk Bar in 2008 and has since opened locations nationwide. Meanwhile, Guidara is the former owner of Eleven Madison Park and NOMAD, and also co-produces Hulu’s hit series, The Bear. So, of course you can guess that their three-bedroom home base in the city has a kitchen fit to please even the pickiest chef. From the aesthetics—including custom-designed oak cabinets from Molteni and honed Volakas marble countertops from the mountains of northern Greece—to the functional elements including Miele and Sub-Zero appliances—it has everything one could need.
Other highlights include the bright, open living spaces that makes it easy to chat with those mingling around the fireplace or out on the terrace while you cook. Even when no one is around, the floor-to-ceiling walls of glass allow you to look out to the vibrant city as the sunshine flows in. The home also has three bedrooms tucked away, with the primary suite shining with ample bespoke luxuries.
Mike Lubin at Brown Harris Stevens represents this tasty listing, which has even appeared on Tosi’s famed “Bake Club” episodes.
