and huge windows on all floors.

LAYOUT
Garden Level:
Once inside the common lobby, access either the owner?s duplex or ascend the central stairwell to the apartments on the upper floors. Primarily, the garden level accommodates the heart of the owner?s duplex. A grand foyer with a double-height ceiling and wide elliptical staircase is delightful and inviting. The garden front hosts a gracious sitting room or home office with large windows allowing in plenty of natural light. Take note of the extra ceiling height and the
expansive feeling it creates throughout the entire townhouse. Opposite the foyer lies a formal dining room that boasts two sets of French doors, which open to the rear garden and provide an
opportunity for simultaneous indoor and outdoor entertaining. At the right of the dining room, pass through a swinging door to the kitchen. Utilizing a galley style layout for maximum efficiency, the
kitchen features butcher block countertops, a double oven, dishwasher, and under-counter washer and dryer units. There is also a separate breakfast nook overlooking the garden. A powder room and walk-in closet are found in the hall between the kitchen and main entrance. A small elevator that serves only the owner?s duplex is also accessible in the hall.

Parlour Level:
The open layout of the parlour floor celebrates the full twenty-foot width of the townhouse. The large front living room features cove moldings, a wood burning fireplace, and three French doors with transoms that open to the street-facing terrace. In the center of the floor, at the top of the elliptical staircase, sits a wall of built-in bookshelves and passageway.
