A gracious entry leads to a south-facing living room with a vented gas fireplace, high ceilings, moldings, lovely floors, and an adjoining formal dining room. The kitchen is fitted with custom cabinets and top of the line appliances. There is a marble bathroom with an adjacent washer and dryer closet. A large primary bedroom is equipped with ample custom closets.Upstairs is a fabulous double-height barrel-vaulted greenhouse of glass overlooking terraces with plantings with a view of Central Park. This glass-walled aerie is a lush retreat from the busy city. There is also a powder room on this level. The apartment is cooled by central AC throughout.
