Property Summary
Description
This exceptional high floor apartment with 4 exposures is on the market for the first time in 54 years. The apartment has been owned by one family since the building was sold as a co-op in 1959. Perched on the 18th floor, the apartment has views in all directions. It boasts a large and inviting living room, formal dining room, 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths and powder room plus a staff room with shared bath on a separate floor. There is a semi-private landing with only 2 apartments on the 18th floor. This distinctive postwar building was designed by Sylvan Bien and Robert L Bien, the much admired modernist architects who also designed 900 Fifth and 605 Park Avenue. The rosy granite facade is surmounted by 22 stories of salmon colored brick. The building's amenities include a fitness center, children's playroom and garage. Pets and pied-a-terres are welcome. The sister buildings at 135 East 71st Street and 140 East 72nd Street are located in the heart of the Gold Coast, west of Lexington Avenue. The neighborhood is filled with chic and unusual antique and clothing shops as well as award-winning popular restaurants. Maintenance for Staff Room: $358.88. Showings begin December 9th.
