As you come up the brownstone stoop and enter the gracious parlor, you will be greeted by a combination of expansive space and brilliant natural light. The parlor is perfect for grand scale entertaining, living & dining and leads into the enormous eat-in kitchen, flanked by oversized west-facing windows and southward exposure. This kitchen is a family's dream, as it offers not only the finest Sub-Zero, Wolf, Miele and Fisher & Paykel appliances that will delight any chef, but has extraordinary European custom cabinetry with ample storage, marble countertops, and a massive built-in banquette with custom upholstery. With 2 sinks, 2 dishwashers, tremendous counter space and wine storage, this completes an amazing kitchen oasis.

One flight up to the 2nd floor, there are 2 beautifully sized bedrooms with generously sized closets, both with en-suite bathrooms featuring LeFroy Brooks hardware, meticulously selected tile and cabinetry. The North facing bedroom has lovely views of the storied Ansonia, as well as the exquisite facade of the Level Club. The south bedroom can also function as a media room, den or office and features built-in millwork for an entertainment system, a marble-topped wet bar area with an antique smoked-mirror backsplash, and a full-height Leibherr wine cooler. This room leads out to a sizable terrace lovingly planted with native perennials.

The third floor continues the layout, featuring 2 large bedrooms with en-suite baths, with direct access to a planted terrace from the rear. Once again, there is great closet space and a wonderful sense of light and air. This floor also contains a secondary laundry room.

On the top floor master suite, the sizable master bedroom at the front features high ceilings, a vintage Italian crystal chandelier and original deep-set windows.

The staircase then continues to the largest outdoor space, on the roof of the building, landscaped for privacy and featuring a dramatic and pleasing view of the surrounding cityscape.

The garden floor contains multi-functional rooms that can be repurposed as bedrooms, home office spaces, or a den, depending on need. There is a designer powder room half-bath at the foot of the stairs, an en-suite full bathroom in the rear, and extensive closet space throughout.
