Description

Historic Pre-War Gem, Fully Renovated on Prime Upper East Side Block Experience the best of New York’s “Gilded Age” elegance in this exquisitely restored 2 Bedroom Cooperative residence, ideally situated just moments from Central Park. Originally designed by a renowned architect Fredrick T. Camp in 1883, The Imperial is a rare architectural treasure with an impeccable lobby boasting mosaic-tiled floors, marble walls, and intricate wrought-iron doors that transport you back in time the moment you enter. This meticulously renovated 2-Bedroom (or 1-Bedroom plus den/office/dining room), 1-Bath home blends pre-war character with modern luxury. Every inch has been thoughtfully reimagined, from new plumbing and electrical systems to fully updated lighting, floors, and windows. Handcrafted custom cabinetry, along with solid wood French doors finished with Baldwin hardware, sets the stage for a sophisticated space that exudes old-world charm. Throughout the apartment, beautifully restored architectural details showcase a timeless style that includes ornate wood moldings, nearly 11-foot ceilings, and two decorative fireplaces—one gracing the Living Room, another in the Primary Bedroom. Rich Italian marble and gleaming hardwood floors add an element of refined warmth. The sleek and spacious Kitchen boasts stainless steel countertops, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Fisher & Paykel dishwasher, and a Bertazzoni gas range. Dorn Bracht fixtures complete this modern culinary setting. Equally impressive, the floor-to-ceiling white marble Bathroom features a double-sink vanity, solid brass Waterworks fixtures, and a bathtub/shower combination. Building Highlights: - Up to 70% financing allowed - Pied-à-terre ownership, subletting, and pets permitted - Part-time doorman, full-time superintendent - Dedicated storage in the basement - On-site laundry facilities - 2 percent flip tax payable by buyer Located on a prestigious block between Madison and Park Avenue, this home offers the quintessential Upper East Side lifestyle.

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.
