One enters the apartment through a gracious foyer/dining room, decorated with a fantasy mural painted with exotic birds under a colonnade with faux marble pilasters overlooking island pavilions set in an azure blue sea and sky, leading into the inviting, south-facing, richly-decorated living room with fireplace and windows facing the buildings opposite. The bedroom, currently with a Murphy bed, has ample closets and an en suite windowed bathroom. There is an additional powder room off the foyer. Fully equipped kitchen. Thru-wall air conditioning.
