The craftsmanship is gorgeous and that terrace....❤️

I could live there in a well, you know, New York city minute. Absolutely gorgeous.

Fun2BHere...this place actually has 2 terraces!

I love the corner of the MBR with the chaise... I'd never leave that spot. Overall, it's not my style, but it's one that is classic and timeless. You could have shown this 20 years ago, and 20 years from now, and it would look appropriate to the setting.

What a gorgeous place, and those ceilings are truly TDF!

I think that's about the strangest way I've ever seen to make a bed though! What's going on there?

"What's going on there?" LOL, what is going on there??

That is an odd way to make a bed. Maybe they sleep with their heads at the bottom. It’s a spectacular place. I love that it has so much light. Imagine — two terraces and a green house in the middle of NYC. The only thing I would have to renovate is the kitchen which looks too cute to me and I don’t like tile countertops. Of course if I lived there I would never go in the kitchen especially because the master bedroom area has its own breakfast bar. Ah, nice to dream.

Two terraces...❤️❤️

Of course I'd never buy the place. There's a lot I don't like ... besides the price. I don't like the tile counters though they are pretty...I don't like the wallpaper/fabrics in the kitchen. For $45mil I would expect a formal DR. I'm also not a fan of the MBR suite due to the trek from the bed to either WC. And I find the tile floors in the hallways way too busy for my taste.

And I agree that is a strange way to make a bed...

Those 2 rooms are beautiful but I don't like the rest of the house. And for $45 million, you'd think there'd be more than 2 bedrooms...

There are actually 4 bedrooms...one with a private balcony...the headline listing is wrong...you can see them on the floorplan.

Interesting to see some similarities between the 2 places. But over $100 mil? Amazing.

If I had ANY millions, I would love that place! Not sure I can deal with a city, though, after living on 50 + acres....

Springroz...if you can afford a $40 mil penthouse in NYC, you can afford a country place too and the limo to take you there...

Seems like you can live in that penthouse and feel like you’re in the country. Two terraces? A greenhouse? You can grow your own food! And the concierge can take care of your other needs. Oh, want to go shopping? Cartier is on the ground floor. If, you know, you have some cash to spare.

I was thinking like Annie, for $45 million I expect a formal dining room. But maybe you just eat out.

What‘s with the big sink smack dab next to the range? Handy for pouring out pasta water, but it’s a bit huge at the expense of counter space.

The floors are to-die-for, and I actually like the kitchen decor. The whole Apartment is lovely.

I suspect the kitchens in both places were used just by staff.

I'm in love with the rug in the library

I was looking at the coffee table in the library...any idea what material that's made of?

The coffee table is fabulous. Reminds me of a table I saw long ago that was lacquered goatskin. This looks more like tortoiseshell,penshell,lacquer,resin, or even horn. https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/tables/end-tables/pair-of-1960s-faux-tortoiseshell-occasional-tables-after-maison-jansen/id-f_15767142/ And of course,it could be some rare and wondrous burled wood.

I'd love to know more about the rug!

holly, it's interesting that you thought Maison Jansen for the coffee table, because the apartment of Terry Allen Kramer's father and his second wife -- Charles Allen, Jr. and Mildred, who lived at 2 East 67th Street in NYC -- was decorated in the late fifties by Maison Jansen. The Devoted Classicist blog has two posts on the apartment,
