Enter the historic 1902, Georgian-style, wide brownstone and take the elevator to the third floor where one of the most beautifully proportioned and appointed oases in New York awaits you - an elegantly detailed (fine wood molding, granite window sills), serenely quiet, sunny, 20' x 18' living space with 10'9 ceilings. During the day, enjoy the views to the north and east from the three large windows, and at night relax by the wood-burning fireplace after a day jogging in Central Park, just 1-1/2 blocks away, or exploring the nearly galleries and museums (Metropolitan Museum of Art, Whitney, etc.). The gracious, open room can easily and elegantly accommodate all the living spaces you need. Your en-suite dressing area/bathroom, designed by the granddaughter of famous architect Stanford White, has floor-to-ceiling cherry wood closets, a marble-topped dressing table, a window seat overlooking gardens, and three windows. Your kitchen has everything you need and more: stainless steel appliances, including GE dishwasher and LG microwave, ample cabinets and closets. In move-in, turn-key condition, located between Madison and Park Avenue. Currently the office of an interior designer, this is also the perfect single-person home or pied-a-terre for a couple. A very quiet, understated building.
