This prewar penthouse has a huge wrap terrace and sits atop a boutique doorman co-op. From the spacious private elevator landing, one enters this unique apartment into an impressive living/dining room anchored by a wall of windows with sliding glass doors onto the northern stretch of the terrace, which encompasses the entire apartment. There is a large separate dining area with double height ceiling, skylight style windows and sliding glass doors to a small outdoor space that houses structural beams making for an architecturally interesting visual. Amazing light from the north, south and west floods this dramatic and inviting entertaining space. The partially open kitchen, with an eating counter that is perfect for a meal or enjoying a cocktail, has three south and west facing windows, plentiful counter-space & storage, 2 deep sinks and stainless appliances including a Wolf stove and Jenn-Air refrigerator. A terrace door off the kitchen makes it easy to dine al fresco.
The secluded principal bedroom has north and south exposures, 2 closets, (1 walk-in) and an en-suite windowed bath with double sinks, ample sized built-in vanity and a double shower. On the other side of the living room is a small hallway leading to a north facing 2nd bedroom with double closet and a windowed hall bath.
The far side of the vibrant blue private elevator landing leads to the solarium that has served as both a bedroom, den and studio.
