Property Details
Description
Like nothing else. Located on one of the most coveted blocks in Manhattan, this spectacular penthouse is perched atop a distinguished Art-Deco cooperative just off Fifth Avenue and across from the iconic Frick Museum. An oversized private terrace wraps around the entire six-room home, offering dazzling Central Park views as well as open city architectural views and light streaming in from all four exposures. Boasting high ceilings, prewar details and graciously scaled primary rooms, this one-of-a-kind residence has it all. Entering exclusively from a key-locked elevator, an ample foyer leads to the elegant living room, with double exposure and a wood-burning fireplace, that unfolds onto the large north facing terrace overlooking Central Park and the Frick. The grand primary suite, which includes a windowed dressing room and ensuite bathroom, enjoys the same splendid views and light. The living room flows seamlessly into the dining space, which has another terrace entrance, and the adjacent European-style kitchen and library/den open up to yet another large, south-facing terrace, with multiple seating areas and planters, perfect for a serene morning coffee. Beyond the library is a smaller second bedroom with another full windowed bathroom. A perfectly situated powder room off the foyer rounds out this optimal and expansive layout of living space, inside and out. 4 East 70th Street is an exquisite boutique prewar cooperative, located just steps from Fifth Avenue and Central Park, and uniquely situated across from the beloved Frick Museum and gardens, which recently underwent a stunning renovation and restoration. This unique positioning allows for beautiful and unobstructed views over Central Park. Residents enjoy white-glove service, including doorman-controlled elevator access, a resident manager, and a level of care and attention that defines the best of New York living. There is also private storage and central laundry in the basement. This premier neighborhood offers world-class shopping on Madison Avenue, art galleries, and gourmet dining at your doorstep. 40% financing is permitted. Pied-a-terre ownership is welcomed, and pets are allowed with board approval.
