A beautiful library off the formal expanse is accessed through elegantly, tall double doors and draws in lovely light with beautiful, built-in bookshelves flanking the entry doors and can easily serve as the second bedroom or guest room with an adjacent full marble bath. Multiple entrances to the bath allow for flexibility as a guest bath. The master bedroom suite is simply sublime overlooking Park Avenue and drawing in lovely natural light.
