Located in one of Carnegie Hill's most iconic Art Deco buildings, this stunning, large, 5-room apartment is flooded with sunlight and has open views of Central Park from every room. One enters the apartment through a foyer leading into a striking open-plan living room/dining room with 11-foot ceilings, an unusual corner wood burning fireplace and access to a fully renovated kitchen and a 26-foot long terrace facing Madison Avenue. Also accessed through the foyer are the two large, high-ceilinged, bedrooms. The primary bedroom faces north and west, has a small dressing room, en suite bath, and a narrow terrace with direct park views. The second bedroom, now used as a study, is larger in size than the primary one. It has built-in bookshelves, a large window with northern views, three closets and an adjacent bathroom that also serves as the powder room for the apartment. This unusually attractive and charming property, with generously scaled rooms, high ceilings, and large windows with panoramic views, shows beautifully throughout the day and night. Truly a memorable apartment!
