Description
One enters the apartment from a private elevator landing leading into a foyer and the memorable circular entrance gallery. This delightful and unusual space serves as the hub of the apartment and the living room, library, and stunning Biedermeier style wet bar all radiate out from it. The elegant corner living room, facing Park Avenue, is of exceptionally large size with woodburning fireplace and flows into the equally impressive sun-filled formal dining room that comfortably seats 18 people.
The intimate library, with woodburning fireplace, is fitted with bookshelves. A long corridor, off the foyer, leads to the three large bedrooms with en suite baths. The primary one, entered through a discrete elliptical vestibule with two closets, is located on the corner of 66th Street and Park Avenue.
It has fabulous views looking north up Park Avenue and west towards Central Park. Its spacious over-size bathroom has a walk-in shower, two sinks and an open-plan dressing room with two large closets. At the other end of the bedroom hall is a fourth, smaller bedroom, currently used as a gym.
