Upon entering the residence, a foyer leads to a breathtaking 40-foot wide Living/Dining room bathed in natural light with 11-foot beamed ceilings, gorgeous slate floors, a working fireplace and unobstructed views of midtown Manhattan from a wall of double glazed windows. Just beyond, you'll find the large windowed chef's kitchen with abundant cabinetry and professional stainless steel appliances. Nearby, a comfortable den easily converts to a bedroom, while a separate hallway leads to two bright bedrooms and two full bathrooms.
