Finally, a comfortably appointed staff or guest room with full bathroom, sits on the eastern end of the home.
A semi-private landing, beautiful oak floors, exquisite solid-core doors, thru-wall air-conditioning, custom moldings, soffit lighting, and several custom closets complete this fabulous Fifth Avenue listing.
