The library features custom built bookcases and entertainment cabinet.

The primary suite offers two custom outfitted walk-in closets and dual bathrooms, both furnished with walk-in showers, floors inset with radiant heating and heated towel racks. The two additional bedrooms offer generous closets and the home office or staff room is perfectly situated to allow for quiet work space.

Additional features include custom pocket doors in the kitchen and library, double-sheet rock for maximum sound proofing, hidden wifi boosters throughout and sound and entertainment system connected to Control 4 technology. Full sized Miele washer and dryer located across from the office and the apartment trades with two storage unites.

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.
