Description

This grand 3 Bedroom 3 Bath Prewar home on Central Park embraces the sophisticated charm of Rosario Candela's architectural legacy. A large gallery entrance leads you into a beautiful living room with picturesque views of Central Park, a wood burning fireplace, and wood pegged hardwood floors. Directly opposite is a dramatic formal dining room that can easily showcase a table setting fit for Downton Abbey. The double windowed kitchen, and butler pantry area with a washer and dryer, offers great space to renovate to make this the social center of the home. A serene primary bedroom enjoys direct Central Park views, hardwood floors, beamed ceiling, an abundance of closets and large en suite bath. The second bedroom with built-in bookcases is a quiet sanctuary, with a large cedar closet, and second full bath off the hall. The double maid's room gets wonderful eastern light with two large windows and an en suite maid's bath.

This full service intimate cooperative building offers exceptional service at this highly sought after Fifth Avenue address. Only two apartments per floor. Amenities include a beautifully landscaped roof terrace with breathtaking Central Park and city skyline views, a state of the art gym, a central laundry room and a bicycle room.

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.
