The apartment on Central Park West owned by a young designer named Sasha Bikoff is now up for sale with an asking price of $16.75 million. It also turned out that Sasha designed a glam Dakota apartment that once belonged to Judy Garland.
According to 6SQFT, public records show that the pad of the 27-year-old designer, Sasha Bikoff, was owned by her mother, Jacqueline Bikoff, an Iranian pianist and ballerina who passed away last September. Two years ago, Sasha renovated the pad, earning her spot in design publications such as the Times and MyDomaine.
The three-bedroom apartment "radiates the quintessential grandeur that has long defined this iconic cooperative building." The apartment has great features of 13-foot ceilings, lacquer walls, seven wood-burning fireplaces, restored pocket doors, wood floors, and shutters. Sasha made an extraordinary design with the light fixtures and the tone.
The apartment also has an eat-in chef's kitchen which features marble counters, custom cabinetry, and high-end appliances. It is open through the dining room which overlooks the building's courtyard.
Sasha's mother bought the home in 2010 for $13 million from renowned bridge players, Roy Welland and Christal Henner.
The 4,700-square-foot apartment at Central Park West is owned by the late Jacqueline Bikoff, a "pianist and ballerina of Iranian descent who was a fixture on the Studio 54 scene," reports the New York Observer. When Bikoff moved in to the apartment two years ago, she hired her then 25-year-old daughter, Sasha Bikoff, to renovate the apartment that once belonged to Judy Garland, reported The Real Deal.
The Bikoff family has listed on the market the three-bedroom, three-bathroom property for $16.7 million, with Douglas Elliman broker Katherine Gauthier as the agent, who is skeptical about the Garland claims. The apartment was purchased in 2010 by Sasha's mother for $13 million from Roy Welland and Christal Henner, who are both champion bridge players.
