Description

Pied-a-Terre Perfection.

As you enter, you are greeted by the home's gracious windowed foyer which connects all rooms of the apartment. Off the entry, the separate kitchen features stainless steel appliances and marble countertops and backsplash.

Soaring 11' ceilings follow you throughout the apartment. The spacious renovated bathroom features ample storage and a soaking tub. The living and bedroom feel perfectly Parisian with the marble-mantled fireplace a focal point of the grand living area.

Located next to the classic Carlyle Hotel, the Imperial is a landmarked architectural masterpiece and is often compared as the smaller cousin to the legendary Dakota. The building and lobby feature preserved 19th-century details including iron doors, mosaic-tiled floors, marble walls, and intricate architectural carvings in the brownstone facade.

Adjacent to some of the best shopping and museums in the world, as well as famed Central Park, the location is simply superb.

The Imperial includes a part-time doorman on duty from 8a Midnight, as well as a laundry room. 60% maximum financing allowed.

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its quiet, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
