建於1866年，238號住宅地上五層，地下設有地窖。建築坐落於一塊19乘100英尺的地塊上，面積約4,600平方英尺，擁有新近修復、呈石灰岩色調的立面，以及一部服務每一層的鑲板電梯。其室內格局由1960年代的居住者皮耶爾・斯卡普拉（Pierre Scapula）塑造；這位巴黎設計師的委託作品包括為斯塔夫羅斯・尼亞科斯（Stavros Niarchos）設計的遊艇內裝，以及李・拉齊維爾公主（Princess Lee Radziwill）在紐約與巴黎的住宅。如今房屋所呈現的法式氛圍，正是斯卡普拉的傑作。後來，這棟房屋成為首位派駐聯合國的歐洲聯盟代表在紐約的住所。目前，房屋已依照十八世紀的精神修復至博物館級標準。

一進門，迎接您的便是古典聯排住宅建築不可或缺的一連串房間：前廳、大沙龍與會客室。

首先，您會來到一間與房間同等大小的門廳；這裡可透過電梯通往整棟房屋，同時確保其他樓層的私密性。此處的鑲板簡潔，仿照凡爾賽宮路易十五私人套房外的衛兵廳設計；大理石地板的圖案、凸腹式櫃子、鏡子與壁燈，也都符合該時期的風格。客用衣帽間，以及一間採華麗洛可可風格的金色與縞瑪瑙盥洗室，均由此通往。

接著，您沿著寬闊的樓梯上行。樓梯並未完全由牆壁封閉，因此可從下方空間望見大沙龍的鏡子與水晶吊燈，形成視覺上的連貫。這裡擁有十二英尺高的天花板，以及已有三百年歷史、由斯卡普拉從法國帶來的法蘭西島風格鑲板與壁爐。木柴壁爐仍可使用。大型鏡面壁爐上方鑲嵌著尼古拉・朗克雷（Nicolas Lancret，1690－1742）的畫作；通電的古董水晶吊燈則來自達科塔大樓阿爾伯克克男爵夫人的住所。兩扇法式門通往陽台，可俯瞰花園的寧靜景致。凡爾賽宮式拼花地板、古董家具與整合式音響系統，共同完成了這間非凡的房間。

相鄰的是會客室，斯卡普拉將其打造為「鏡廳」（Salle de Glace），以比例忠實的鑲板與金箔線腳，重現十八世紀備受喜愛的室內風格。封閉式書櫃、鎏金青銅燈具與大型書桌，使此空間可作為辦公室、圖書室，或額外的待客場所。

再上一層是主臥套房，牆面覆以法國橡木鑲板，採用「au cappuccine」表面處理。進口自法國的壁爐上方，懸掛著一幅已有一百多年歷史的帆布壁畫《羅馬廣場的建造》；這幅畫由238號住宅的首任屋主度蜜月返紐約時帶回。套房設有兩間步入式衣帽間與內嵌式收納空間；相鄰的是白色卡拉拉大理石浴室，配有一座六英尺長的浸泡式浴缸與雙洗手盆。

同一樓層、位於建築前方的是客房，設計仿效小型「展示室」（Chambre de Parade），其床幔與鑲板尤其引人注目。牆面覆以Scalamandré絲綢，房內家具採路易十五風格。附設窗戶的套房浴室以綠色大理石打造，配有一座大型且罕見的紫色大理石盥洗台；更衣浴室則設有衣櫥與內嵌式收納空間。

再上一層是一間以威尼斯風格裝飾、面向花園的臥室，設有壁爐、三扇內倒內開窗、更衣室，以及配有白色盥洗盆、金色五金與金色支腳的梳妝台；另有一間步入式衣帽間，以及一間採用五種大理石裝修的浴室。建築前方則設有一套兩房一衛的傭人套房，可與房屋其餘部分隔離，並可由電梯抵達。即使在這裡，仍處處可見令人驚嘆之處：床頭板是精工鑄造的青銅作品，如今看來，它原本似乎來自早已拆除的中央車站北立面門楣飾板。

最後是位於第五層的頂層公寓，採用中世紀現代風格，與其餘部分截然不同。

Built in 1866, Number 238 rises five stories over a cellar. It has approximately 4,600 square feet on a 19 by 100-foot lot, a newly restored limestone-toned facade, and a paneled elevator serving every level. Its interiors were shaped by its 1960s occupant, Pierre Scapula, the Parisian designer whose commissions included yacht interiors for Stavros Niarchos and the New York and Paris homes of Princess Lee Radziwill. Scapula is responsible for the French ambiance we see in the house today. Later, the house became the New York residence of the first European Union Representative to the United Nations. At present it is restored to museum quality standard in the spirit of the eighteenth century.

Upon entering you are greeted by the sequence of rooms mandatory to classic townhouse architecture: Anteroom, Grand Salon and Drawing Room.

First, you arrive at the room-size Foyer, which provides access to the whole house by elevator while assuring privacy to the other floors. Here the paneling is simple, patterned after the Guard Hall outside the Louis XV private suite at Versailles, and the marble flooring pattern, the bombé chest, the mirrors and the sconces are all appropriate to the period. A guest closet and the Gold and Onyx Powder Room, in the flamboyant Rococo style, open off it.

Next, you ascend the wide stairway, which is not fully enclosed by walls and allows a visual connection from the space below to the mirrors and crystal chandelier of the Grand Salon. Here are twelve-foot ceilings and three-hundred-year-old Île-de-France style paneling and a fireplace, both brought from France by Scapula. The woodburning fireplace works. The large mirror trumeau contains a painting by Nicolas Lancret (1690-1742), and the electrified antique crystal chandelier came from the residence of the Baroness Albuquerque in the Dakota. Twin French doors open to a balcony overlooking the tranquility of the garden. Parquet de Versailles flooring, antique furnishing and an integrated sound system complete this exceptional room.

Adjoining is the Drawing Room, styled by Scapula as a Salle de Glace, or mirror room, in which he replicated an eighteenth-century favorite with authentically proportioned panels and gold leaf moldings. Enclosed bookcases, doré bronze lighting fixtures and a large desk allow the space to be used as an office, a library or additional entertaining space.

One floor above is the Primary Suite, paneled in French oak in an au cappuccine finish. The imported French fireplace is topped by a canvas mural more than a hundred years old, "The Construction of the Roman Forum," brought back to New York from his honeymoon by the first owner of 238. There are two walk-in closets and built-in storage, and adjoining is the white Carrara marble bath with a six-foot soaking tub and double sinks.

On the same floor, at the front of the building, is the Guest Room, styled in the manner of a small Chambre de Parade and notable for its bed hangings and paneling. The walls are covered in Scalamandré silk, and the room is furnished in the Louis XV style. The ensuite windowed bath is finished in green marble with a large, rare purple marble vanity sink, and the dressing bath contains closets and built-in storage.

On the floor above is a Venetian decorated bedroom overlooking the garden, with a fireplace, three tilt-and-turn windows, a dressing room with a white vanity sink and gold fixtures and legs, a walk-in closet, and a bathroom finished in five kinds of marble. At the front there is a two-room-and-bath staff suite which can be shut off from the rest of the house and reached by elevator. Even here wonders abound: the headboard is a high-quality bronze casting that now appears to have come from an overdoor panel of the long-demolished north facade of Grand Central Terminal.

At last , the fifth-floor penthouse, done in a mid-century modern style, entirely different from the rest of th
