Grand 5 bedroom, 5.5 bath approximately 5,000 square foot duplex apartment in the prominent River House, a palatial pre-war cooperative built high above the East River and located at the edge of a private cul-de-sac on E. 52nd Street. The spacious apartment features 2 wood burning fireplaces, chef's kitchen, breakfast room, gallery, library, and large living room with huge bay windows and expansive river views. The apartment is accessed through a semi-private elevator and boasts high ceilings (almost 11') and a spectacular layout that wonderfully divides the entertaining space from the private space. The River House is rich in history and has an old world charm with a gated cobble-stoned courtyard and fountain at the entrance.
