Magandang nakapuwesto sa itaas ng kalye sa antas ng parlor, ang magandang at tahimik na 5-silid sulok na tahanan sa The Clarendon ay nag-uugnay ng pinakamahusay sa sukat at detalye ng lumang mundo kasama ang mga magagandang tampok at modernong kaginhawaan. Ang kahanga-hangang sukat ay pinahusay ng 11' na kisame, maluluwang na silid, at oversized na de-kalidad na bintana na tahimik sa lungsod. Sa tapat ng Riverside Park, ang kaakit-akit na lokasyon ay napakaganda.

Ang magiliw na layout ay napakaganda para sa parehong pagdiriwang at pamumuhay na may dalawang silid-tulugan, bawat isa ay may en-suite na banyo. Magaganda ang mga prewar architectural elements kabilang ang mataas na kisame, mga sahig na hardwood oak, kumikinang na molding, arko ng mga pintuan, at isang eleganteng pandekorasyong fireplace. Ang mga de-kalidad na bintana, fittings, at finishes, solidong kahoy na pinto, de-kalidad na brass na mga doorknob, at wall-mounted na air conditioning ay mga kamangha-manghang karagdagan sa tahanan. Ang pagdiriwang ay walang hirap na may pinalawig na entry gallery na may dome ceiling, isang maliwanag at malaking 21' na sulok na living room na may apat na bintana at oblique na tanaw ng Park, isang pormal na dining room na may artist-painted ceiling dome, at isang kitchen na may mga de-kalidad na Miele at Bertazzoni na appliances. Ang mga karagdagang tampok ng kitchen ay kinabibilangan ng custom hardwood cabinetry at Venetian plaster na mga pader.

Ang parehong silid-tulugan ay maluluwang na may pinaka pangunahing suite na may pader ng custom closets, isang linen closet, at marble na banyo. Ang pangalawang silid-tulugan ay kasalukuyang naka-configure bilang isang library/den/media room na may custom built-in na entertainment center at built-in na shelving, dalawang karagdagang closet, at isang magandang, inayos na en-suite na banyo na may pedestal sink at magagandang tile flooring. May access mula sa gallery, pati na rin isang double door na pasukan sa living room.
