Description

Stately and historic, Residence 5C at 242 East 19th Street is a rare offering. A blend of architectural integrity and modern finishes, 5C is spacious yet intimate, resulting in an exceptional Gramercy home. A corner duplex in one of Gramercy's most sought-after buildings, this Art Deco pre-war co-op offers 4 bedrooms plus a bonus room, 3.5 bathrooms, and northern and eastern light across 20 windows. At approximately 3,200 square feet, Residence 5C is fit for entertaining, recreation, home workouts, and more. Upon entry through the foyer, you are greeted by the massive 40' living and dining area, with northern exposures that fill the space with light all day. Key features include a wood-burning fireplace one of three in the apartment beamed ceilings, built-in window seats, a library nook, and a windowed powder room. To the left is the renovated and windowed chef's kitchen. Ideal for entertaining, the kitchen has its own separate service entrance. The semi-open layout provides ample counter space and plenty of storage, and the Sub Zero refrigerator, professional Wolf range, the Miele dishwasher, and the wine cooler complete the space. The main floor has four additional rooms: a corner bedroom with north and eastern exposures and an en suite bath; a den or family room with the second wood-burning fireplace; a second bedroom with eastern explore and generous closet space; and a laundry room with side-by-side washer and dryer. Up the grand staircase with a 19' ceiling are the second two bedrooms. To the left is the primary suite, with another wood-burning fireplace, an exceptionally large walk-in closet with floor-to-ceiling built-ins and a windowed dressing area, and the primary en suite bathroom. The second bedroom has a built-in window seat and adjacent windowed full bathroom with top-of-the-line finishes and matching fixtures by Urban Archaeology. 242 East 19th Street is a premier Gramercy Art Deco full-service co-op. Impeccably maintained with a full-time doorman, porter, and live-in building manager, the building is just moments from Gramercy Park, Stuyvesant Square, Union Square, and many of the neighborhood's favorite restaurants, shops, and cultural touchstones. The building has a common landscaped roof deck. Co-purchasing, guarantors, and pets are permitted with board approval. Monthly maintenance includes electricity.

Gramercy Park is one of New York City’s most storied and picturesque neighborhoods, centered around the only private park in Manhattan. The area exudes old-world charm with its gas-lit streets and impeccably preserved 19th-century architecture. While the park itself is private, the surrounding real estate offers a mix of historic brownstones, elegant pre-war cooperatives, and boutique new developments that cater to those seeking a tranquil urban retreat.
