The expansive living room boasts a wood burning fireplace, custom artisan wallpaper, and hand stenciled ceilings.

The windowed kitchen is outfitted with a Miele dishwasher, Sub Zero refrigerator/freezer, Viking range, and water filtration system. Cabinets of deep emerald are complimented by brass hardware and unlacquered brass counters and backsplash.

One enters the master suite through a hall of custom closets. A serene master bedroom joins a stunning expanded bathroom clad in glass tiles by Ann Sacks and waterworks fixtures.

The oversized guest suite sits on the opposite side of the living room providing ample privacy for both bedrooms. The handsome guest bath boasts onyx and marble finishes, a custom shower and sink, as well as waterworks fixtures.

Electronic black out shades in all rooms, a master lighting and shade control at the front door make the apartment the ultimate in convenience and ease.
