A unique feature of this home is the original staff room, now transformed into a windowed laundry room complete with a full-size washer and dryer, floor-to-ceiling shelving, and a convenient third bath.   The apartment's traditional prewar appeal is further enhanced by the separation of the bedrooms from the formal living spaces. The primary bedroom is a bright and spacious sanctuary, boasting abundant natural light, two double deep closets, and an en-suite bath with a deep soaking tub.
