Description
Exquisite Parisian Elegance on the Upper East Side Experience Parisian sophistication in the heart of New York City at 27 East 79th Street, Residence 5 - a full-floor, 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath masterpiece meticulously crafted by the world-renowned Cabinet Alberto Pinto. Spanning approximately 1,475 square feet, this jewel-box home captures timeless European glamour with parquet de Versailles oak floors, hand-carved moldings, and grand windows that frame sun-drenched treetop views both north and south. The primary suite features a Juliet balcony overlooking the iconic Cook Block, evoking the charm of an elegant Parisian residence. The chef's kitchen is a work of art - outfitted with custom cerused oak cabinetry by Pinto, La Cornue French range, Miele and Sub-Zero appliances, and Cremo Delicato marble surfaces. Spa-like baths showcase a striking mix of Estremoz, Calacatta Vagli, and Emperador marble, complemented by polished nickel fixtures and bespoke vanity craftsmanship. Every detail, from automated window treatments to extensive custom closets and an in-unit washer/dryer, has been curated for refined living. Upon entry, you're welcomed through a private elevator into an airy and exclusive sanctuary. The limestone facade, ornate ironwork, and glass-domed marquee mirror the grandeur of historic Paris, while a 24-hour attended lobby sets the tone for discreet luxury. Perfectly positioned between Fifth and Madison Avenues, moments from Central Park and the city's most celebrated cultural landmarks - including The Met, The Guggenheim, and The Neue Galerie - this bespoke residence defines Upper East Side perfection.

About Upper East Side
View All Upper East Side ListingsThe Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, 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.
