Description

Glamorous corner two-bedroom condominium in excellent condition on 78th Street and Madison Avenue. This prime Upper East Side location is near Central Park and some of the best shopping, restaurants, and cultural attractions in the city. Apartment 6G is bathed in natural light from north and west exposures and has superb views of surrounding mansions on tree-lined streets. At just under 1,650 square feet, this residence offers abundant storage and was renovated with a modern flair. A large entry foyer leads to an elegant and expansive living room. The dining room has been opened to the kitchen, forming a gloriously sunny space for entertaining, cooking, and wonderful everyday living. The spacious eat-in kitchen is outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, and a Viking stove. The generously proportioned, corner master bedroom is quiet and sun-filled, featuring a Waterworks-renovated en suite bathroom and western views over Madison Avenue. The second bedroom also faces west with its own Waterworks-renovated bathroom en suite. There is an elegant powder room off the foyer, as well as a large laundry/storage room. This space is also suitable as a fitness room, home office, or large pantry. The Charles House Condominium is a full-service building with a 24-hour doorman, concierge, live-in super, on-site garage, gym, a beautifully planted roof deck with Central Park views, private storage, and a bike room.

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.
