Description

This spectacular, contemporary, light-filled condo with soaring 20-foot ceilings, three bedrooms, and three bathrooms is located in the heart of Lenox Hill. Designed with meticulous attention to detail, the residence offers sweeping city views from three exposures, creating a luxurious and serene retreat high above the city. From the moment you step into the elegant foyer, you're drawn into an expansive open-concept living, dining, and kitchen space, featuring a gas-burning fireplace and dramatic 20-foot ceilings. Towering windows stretch floor to ceiling, flooding the space with natural light and framing iconic city vistas. The impressive volume is perfect for showcasing large-scale art, while the private outdoor terrace invites you to relax with a cup of coffee, happy hour cocktails and take in panoramic skyline views. The windowed chef’s kitchen is both functional and refined, featuring stone countertops, a breakfast bar, custom wood cabinetry, and top-of-the-line appliances including a Monogram fridge and freezer, Viking oven and stove, Dacor microwave and Bosch dishwasher. A designated dining area and convenient countertop bar seating offer flexibility for both daily living and effortless entertaining. The sun-drenched primary suite is a peaceful sanctuary with eastern exposures showcasing picturesque views of the Queensboro Bridge, Roosevelt Island, and beyond. Spacious enough for a king-sized bed, seating area, vanity or desk, dresser, and nightstands, it also includes two large closets—one of which is a walk-in—and a beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom. At the opposite end of the home, a second large en-suite bedroom ensures privacy and includes its own bathroom and washer/dryer closet. This room also enjoys sweeping views, including glimpses of Central Park and the iconic Plaza Hotel, along with generous closet space. The third bedroom, adjacent to the primary suite, comfortably fits a queen or two twin beds and features excellent storage and striking east-facing views. The third full bathroom is conveniently located off the foyer for guests, while two additional hallway closets provide even more storage throughout the home. Additional highlights include ceilings ranging from 10 to 20 feet, central air conditioning, solid wood floors, open city views from every window, abundant storage and a great floor plan taking advantage of every square inch. 205 East 59th Street is a full-service luxury condominium offering an elegant lobby, a full-time doorman, concierge service, live-in resident manager, state-of-the-art fitness center, party room with a catering kitchen, bike room, storage, laundry facilities, and a beautifully landscaped 4th-floor roof deck with lounge areas and a dedicated small dog park. Located in one of Manhattan’s most coveted neighborhoods, 4 blocks from Central Park, you are moments away from world-class dining, museums, art galleries, and legendary shopping, including the iconic Bloomingdale’s. Whether you’re looking for a full-time residence or an exceptional pied-à-terre, this home is a truly special offering. Not to be missed, please contact us today to schedule your private showing.
