About the Listing 7222 - 39059,40684

A truly rare two-story Parisian-style atelier resplendent with original details is located in the iconic Hotel des Artistes. High on the 9th and 10th floor, this home has beautiful herringbone hardwood floors, an elegant and detailed oak staircase, ornate oak door and window frames as well as 18’10" beamed ceilings, all adding a turn-of-the-century charm. With breath-taking open city views via 2 exposures, north and west, this home is sun-kissed. You enter through a formal windowed dining room with a separate kitchen. Then the home flows graciously into an expansive living room with 14’ windows framing an amazing open sky and northern city view. Up the sweeping staircase, you first enter a spacious landing with built-in shelving, suitable for an office or a library or just a place to enjoy the city view. The adjoining bedroom with two exposures providing west and southern light has a walk-in closet and ensuite bath. The Hotel des Artistes is a full service cooperative with amenities not often available in pre-war buildings, including full-time concierge and elevator operator, a swimming pool, a squash court with a basketball hoop, two workout rooms as well as a charming high-walled roof deck. The Leopard at the des Artistes, whose walls display the fanciful murals of frolicking nudes painted by Howard Chandler Christy, an early resident, offers romantic outdoor and indoor dining as well as room service -- all at a discount for des Artistes residents. Built in 1917, the Hotel des Artistes is a majestic 18-story building with a Gothic-style facade featuring charming gargoyles of painters, sculptors and writers. Designed by the architect George Mort Pollard, the building has been home to many of the famed and illustrious, including Noel Coward, Isadora Duncan, writer Fannie Hurst, New York City Mayor John V. Lindsay, Alexander Woollcott, Norman Rockwell and more recently actors Joel Grey and Gary Oldman.
