Bursting with the beauty of natural light, the surprisingly expansive studio affords an exceptionally inspiring residence. Natural hardwood parquet flooring runs throughout for a consistent and attractive appearance.

Voluminous 12’ ceilings add to the overall grandeur, while the west-facing windows capitalize on the magic of evening sunsets over Central Park.
