The Dorilton, a 1902 Beaux Arts historic residential landmark is one of the few remaining structures of its kind in Manhattan. With only two apartments per floor, this extraordinary, high floor 11 room duplex apartment with six bedrooms and five full windowed baths retains many of its prewar details including original woodwork, leaded and beveled glass windows, authentic inlaid flooring and high ceilings. An elegant entry foyer on the main level opens to the oversized and sun filled living room which has one of four decorative fireplaces that grace the apartment. The comfortable and intimate library/study that can be entered from the living room through beautiful French doors or from the hallway, adds to the wonderful entertaining space. The formal dining room with its beamed ceilings is perfect for both gracious entertaining as well as casual dining. A wonderful eat-in kitchen, with large butler's pantry, retains the original glass front oak cabinetry in keeping with the prewar beauty of the apartment. Additionally, there are two bedrooms and two full baths on this level. Upstairs, on the second level, there is a comfortable and inviting living room/den. The grand primary bedroom is flanked on either side with a spacious en-suite master bath and a dressing room with generous closet space and storage. Two nicely-sized bedrooms, two additional full baths and laundry room complete the upper level. The apartment receives beautiful light from West, North and East exposures with open picturesque city views. The Dorilton is one of the most sought after architecturally significant buildings on the Upper West Side. This prestigious white glove building with a full time doorman and live-in super is pet friendly and offers a beautifully landscaped roof garden, outdoor courtyard, additional storage in the basement and a bike room.
