Behind the gate at 154 East 74th Street awaits a home that is cheerful and relaxed. On the first level you will find a bedroom / den, a full bathroom, and a generous media room with a gas fireplace, and adjoining wet bar. With French doors leading to the lush private garden lined with greenery, this area makes the ground floor the perfect spot for entertaining.
