Indulge in the rare and

splendid experience of residing in a captivating 9 room, 4/5 bedroom, 5.5 bath,

buildings. Gracing the city's quintessential block, this high-floor triplex

offers an unparalleled oasis in the Gold Coast of the Upper East Side. Every floor within this remarkable

Park and/or the enchanting Frick Gardens.

Upon arrival at your private elevator

landing, be greeted by a regal gallery which leads to a very large parlor

adorned with a wood-burning fireplace, setting the tone for sophistication. On

the other side of the gallery, is the oversized oval shaped dining room with

double exposures. Adjoining the dining room is the enormous and

well-designed eat-in kitchen fit for the most discerning of chefs. Key

features include top of the line appliances, a wine refrigerator, an

island with counter seating, stunning counter tops and tiles, and an abundance

of storage and counter space. The kitchen is enhanced by 3 windows which

stunning spiral staircase, you'll find 2 bedrooms with the coveted split

layout. The primary bedroom is a sanctuary of serenity and contains a

fireplace, double exposures, including breathtaking views of Central Park and
