Description

NEW LISTING - VERY CLASSIC PRE-WAR 6 ROOMS Welcome to this wonderful, spacious 6 into 5 room home in Carnegie Hill! As you step into the warm and inviting entryway, you'll be greeted by a large living room featuring a wood-burning fireplace and elegant granite-topped built-ins. The formal dining room exudes charm and style, perfect for hosting gatherings or enjoying intimate meals. The primary bedroom is a true retreat, with built-in storage, three closets, and a beautifully renovated ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom/library is a versatile space with custom-built shelves, a desk, and ample storage, along with a double closet. The newly renovated eat-in chef's kitchen is complete with granite countertops and high-end appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher, Viking range, washer/dryer, and a 56-bottle wine refrigerator. Throughout the home, there are pre-war details such as crown moldings, high ceilings, and parquet floors, adding character and charm. With a total of 9 closets, storage will never be an issue. The flexible layout offers the potential to easily reconfigure the space to create a third bedroom. This established co-op building, designed by Emery Roth, is ideally located just a block from Central Park, close to shopping, restaurants, and transportation. Residents enjoy the convenience of a bike room, laundry room, and a dedicated storage unit that conveys with the apartment. Pets are welcome, and 75% financing is permitted. Flip tax: 2%.

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.
