Mornings will never be the same as you awake to panoramic sunrises and glimmering waters from this elegant and serene home. Perched on a high floor, every room offers staggering yet soothing views through east and north facing oversized windows. From the Louis Kahn designed FDR Park on Roosevelt Island to seaplanes landing on the river and sailboats cruising at dusk you will be delighted and inspired. The gracious foyer leads to the sun-flooded great room that can be opened to the eat-in kitchen. There is room to spread out with three generous bedrooms, including dual masters, and three full bathrooms. Abundant closets, 8 in total, and a private storage unit, make this an exceptional home that is priced to sell.
