Description

Enter the large entry gallery and begin to see how this beautifully laid out classic six estate apartment can be brought back to its original grandeur. The huge, gracious living room with wood-burning fireplace is excellent for entertaining. A spacious formal dining room is perfect for large gatherings of family and friends. The large master bedroom has an ensuite bathroom, as does the comfortable 2nd bedroom. The kitchen, with large pantry, is spacious enough for a true chef and includes a laundry room with washer and dryer. The 3rd bedroom/office and bath are conveniently located. There are numerous closets throughout as well as a storage unit that is conveyed with the apartment. Bring your architect/designer as you envision the home you will enjoy for many years to come.

Thomas, it consists of two separate buildings connected by a magnificent two-level Italianate interior garden courtyard with grand central fountain. This classic full-service pre-war building, with 24-hour doorman and live-in resident manager, is steps off Park Avenue, located near transportation, shopping, restaurants, and art galleries. Pied-a-terre is permitted. Pets are welcome. Rooms have been virtually staged.

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.
