A very large and open foyer greets you as you enter the apartment, and offers the perfect place to sit while you put down your packages, take off your shoes, and hang your coat in one of the  two large closets while taking in the views from the bank of windows just ahead. This spacious entry is large enough to be used as a work-from-home office area and/or library as well. Adjacent is the lovely, windowed dining alcove, with ample space to set a table for 10 and host delightful dinner parties. If desired, this area can also easily be converted into a 2nd bedroom or separate home-office (see alternate floor plan). During the warmer weather bring the dinner party outdoors to your private corner terrace, with breathtaking views of the city below and sky above. The living room is expansive, and easily accommodates a large sectional sofa, a full media center, and plenty of additional seating in which to relax and enjoy the respite from the city below.  A windowed galley kitchen with two exposures boasts custom cherry cabinets with tons of storage, black granite countertops, a Sub Zero fridge, gas range and separate oven, Miele dishwasher, a built in microwave and has under-cabinet lighting. The king-sized bedroom is on the other side of the apartment, with a large wall of windows, a vast double sized custom California Closet, with plenty of extra room for an additional dresser or vanity and reading nook.
