The main kitchen, with center island, is outfitted with top of the line equipment and is detailed with extensive accommodations for ease of use and storage. Adjoining the cooking area to one side is a butler's pantry and bar that has an additional dishwasher, sink, refrigerator drawers and large wine refrigerator. To the other side is an open family room with a large, Eastern exposure window, dining table with banquette and home office area. MASTER SUITE The Master Suite is comprised of two main rooms, the bedroom on Fifth Avenue (with fireplace and custom designed marble surround) and an adjoining sitting room/private office, creating a space with Western, Eastern and Southern exposures. The placement of a separate dressing room and powder room allows for an open flow and flexibility in creating privacy. A special feature of the suite is a custom designed Traum safe (in collaboration with Thomas O'Brien) that is installed in one of the closets.
