This is how the apartment of an acclaimed interior designer should look like! Owned by the famous Howard Slatkin, this sumptuous Fifth Avenue apartment looks like the place a French monarch would’ve been comfortable living in, with its 12 palatial rooms, four full bathrooms, and excellent views of Central Park.
The magnificent pad features Louis XVI-style carved doors, a marble mantle fireplace, French parquetry de Versailles floors, and even a column-defined sitting room. Meanwhile, the beautiful formal dining room is entered through full-height bronze, mirrored doors by Maison Jansen, and boasts exquisitely hand-painted walls and ceiling.
Other highlights include a screening room, a guest/staff wing, a library accented with mahogany and leather wall panels, a butler’s bar, and marble veneer bath, while the master bedroom boasts a couture designed dressing room. Finally, the eat-in chef’s kitchen comes with Traulsen refrigerator, Wolf appliances, Delft-style tiled walls and ceilings, a flower room, pantry, and a silver closet.
We can’t imagine why Howard Slatkin would to part with this place (time for something new, perhaps?). The apartment is listed with Sotheby’s for a cool $10 million.
