possible in order to allow more room for glass and in turn, more light. This is where the brownstone truly sets itself apart, putting notions of a dark, wooden, and oftentimes overly ornamented home in the past. Allowing for views directly into the basement, kitchen, master bedroom and bathroom, virtually every space is visible from the outside and the New York City skyline from the inside. The home features triple glazed windows imported from Germany that required a special installation technique but in the long run will ensure that no heat is lost even on the coldest days. The interior, which commands just as much attention as the outside, carries with it the same level of detail and superior craftsmanship that Jenny intended. Two different types of lighting were installed throughout the home which includes trimless recessed lighting allowing for a cleaner look and a variety of artistic fixtures for architectural appeal. "In the evening, you can ask Alexa [Amazon Echo] to turn on Zen mode and all the recessed lights will dim, all the ambient lights and chandeliers will start to glow and the whole place just transforms into this really beautiful light show." Details such as this are what separate 707 Park Ave from other brownstones, including Jenny's art-inspired touches like the 18- foot plaster installation leading up from the basement and the handcut lattice staircase which runs up to the top of the house. At 4,300 square feet, the brownstone features 11 separate spaces including a Scavolini kitchen, dining room, living room and five bedrooms/four bathrooms, including a duplex master suite with an open layout, custom walk-in closet and window-front soaking tub with views of the Empire State Building. On the top floor, the space can be used as either an office or for an au pair and is fitted with a kitchenette and full bathroom. Jenny explained that when it came to each space, he mixed classic materials with modern design to create a look that is both timeless and neutral enough for potential buyers. Currently listed at $3.89 million, Jenny has high hopes for the future of this property and wishes to continue his venture in the fine home building and developing field where he can execute his designs, his way. "This is the vision I had since day one so I don't view it as anything amazing I just see it as something natural. I hope we did something special here but I can't understand the magnitude of it all because it's so personal. It's a weird feeling but I can honestly say I've never been more proud." 530 Sylvan Ave Englewood Cliffs, NJ 07632 201-816-1333 345 Centre St, Suite 1 Nutley, NJ 07710 973-667-3399 590 Madison Ave, 21st.
