Upon entering this beautiful townhouse from the street level, you step into a spacious tiled foyer. This area leads to a large wood-paneled console that includes a roomy entry closet, a hidden staircase to the cellar, an elevator, and a powder room. Continuing through the house, you will discover a big informal entertaining area. This space features a full wet bar, a wine refrigerator, and French doors that open up to a lovely garden. As you ascend to the parlor floor, the impressive layout becomes clear, showcasing a magnificent main floor ideal for hosting guests and serving as the heart of the home. The south-facing living room boasts a custom floor-to-ceiling fireplace and a striking corner bay window that offers views of the surrounding architecture. The spacious dining room sits between the living room and a large, dream eat-in kitchen, which features custom white lacquer cabinets and all the modern conveniences you would expect. These include Dornbracht fixtures, a vented Wolf 6-Burner range with a griddle, Miele ovens with a warming drawer, a double-paneled Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, and a separate full-sized wine fridge. The third floor is dedicated to a large primary suite that occupies the entire level. This suite includes a south-facing bedroom with a wood-burning fireplace and a luxurious six-fixture primary bathroom. The bathroom features a separate water closet, a double shower, and an oversized deep soaking tub. Additionally, there are two walk-in closets and a bright corner den or private office located across from the bedroom. For added privacy, this entire floor can be closed off from the rest of the house at the top of the staircase. The fourth floor, located above the main suite, has two large bedrooms on each side of the house. Each bedroom includes a walk-in closet and its own bathroom. A bright bonus room in the middle is ideal for a playroom, den, or additional gathering space. On the fifth floor, there are two more bedrooms, both featuring spacious terraces. One terrace faces south, while the other has a large wraparound area to the north, offering stunning views of the Midtown skyline and the Chrysler Building.
