Real Estate Want: A terrace tub

This incredible $16-million Lenox Hill townhouse, originally built in 1899, has a two-story glass-enclosed atrium that leads to a gorgeous ground floor planted garden. But one of the most exotic exterior details in this palatial dream home--which was also this year's Kips Bay Decorator Show House--is the outdoor bathtub on a (hopefully) private fifth-floor terrace.
