40 E 62nd Street #5-W

40 East 62nd is an elegant prewar boutique condominium located in one of the most desirable locations on the Upper East Side ? between Madison and Park Avenue. Newly staged, residence 5W comes to market with a fresh look and unbeatable price at $3,450,000 or a mere $1,674 PPSF. This is an opportunity not to be missed.

True to the Upper East Side, the elevator is operated by the doorman and leads to a private landing shared just by this home and one neighbor. The chic entry foyer has unique leather flooring and is made complete with a fashionable powder room with Scalamandre Zebra Wallpaper.

To the right of the entry is the common wing of the home ? featuring a generously proportioned living room with the separate formal dining room ? leading to a spacious windowed eat-in-kitchen featuring top of the line Wolf and Subzero appliances.

The residential wing has a spacious master bedroom suite has East and South exposures allowing for significant natural light, a huge walk-in custom built closet, and an en-suite master bathroom with dual sink vanity and mosaic spa-like shower. The original floorplan had a fourth bedroom but the current owner combined two bedrooms to make a larger Master Suite.

Adjacent is the second bedroom, second bathroom, and washer/dryer. A home office and/or third bedroom is located off the foyer.

Completed in 1912 and built of brick, stone, and terra cotta, 40 East 62nd Street was designed by architect Albert Joseph Bodker. The distinguishing neo-Medieval terra cotta facade has been carefully maintained over the years. The building has nine floors with two apartments per floor, a doorman/elevator operator, and superintendent. Located close to Central Park as well as some of the finest shopping and dining in the City.
