Enter off of a semi-private renovated landing and be welcomed into a gracious square foyer wrapped in lime-wash textured walls with coved crown molding overhead. The floors are dressed in neutral marble with inlay, warmed by sunlight streaming in from a glorious corner living room. Enveloped in oversized wall-to-wall windows, the living room faces east and south offering grand entertaining space anchored by a central wood-burning fireplace with a handsome stepped limestone mantle and luxuriously expanded by two sizable terraces in both directions. The adjacent south-facing library is adorned with gorgeous custom millwork, textured wallpaper and customized inlaid tapestry.

As you cross the gallery, you pass two chic lacquered doors behind which are a huge customized walk-in coat closet and an elegant windowed marble powder room with turned rope molding and metal leaf ceiling. Just beyond, the formal dining room is bathed in eastern sunlight and flanked by a third private terrace for those who like to dine al fresco. There is also a full-sized Viking Professional wine fridge with one hundred fifty-bottle capacity.

The windowed eat-in kitchen is adjacent to the dining room and finished with polished marble countertops with dramatic veining, a mosaic tiled backsplash, lacquered cabinetry and a suite of high-end appliances including a Thermador gas range/oven with a Miele hood, a custom-paneled Thermador refrigerator/freezer, an integrated Miele dishwasher and a Thermador subcounter microwave.
