While the NYC native might’ve preferred a more horizontal sprawl, the home’s five stories and basement level are all conveniently connected via elevator. Its original winding staircase sports an intricate metal railing. Listing photos show that the residence is styled in homage to the era in which it was built—particularly in its formal living and dining areas, which are decked out with large-scale period-appropriate art, antique furniture, original wood-burning fireplaces, and opulent light fixtures.

A frosted glass and metalwork door opens into the home’s garden level. The formal dining room, complete with a hammered copper fireplace (signed by designer Peter Muller-Munk) and dark hardwood floors, accesses a modest garden via French doors. On the parlor level, a sumptuous library with its original dark wood paneling features another one of the house’s six wood-burning fireplaces, plus a terrace that overlooks the garden.
