Upon entering, you are struck by the space, scale, original detail and elegant proportions of light-filled rooms with soaring ceilings and beautiful partial river and open city views.
The apartment has been lovingly maintained with tasteful updates, including new windows throughout. It retains many extraordinary prewar details.
