The main level is anchored by a wow-inducing living room set below a striking vaulted-glass ceiling that floods that entire space with sunlight, and leads out to a huge terrace offering jaw-dropping skyline vistas taking in everything from the historic buildings of Hells Kitchen to the Time Warner Center towers near Central Park. Set above the complexs leafy courtyard, this serene and quiet space provides unbelievable nighttime views, along with a myriad of options for entertaining, gardening and living.

The kitchen leads out to a second terrace with southern views.

This level also includes a large dining area, a half-bathroom and a charming home office/den separated off by pocket doors. An attractive wooden staircase leads down to the duplexs fifth floor, a flexible space that is currently configured as four bedrooms and two full baths, with ceilings that reach well over 10 feet.

The apartment is equipped with two-zone central A/C and threezone heating. All of the interior walls are non-load bearing, allowing for a range of renovation options to suit your own taste. Owners of this unit also have roof rights above the apartment and with board approval could potentially build a third dazzling deck.
