50 E 77TH Street #12C

Brand newly listed is this glorious, sunny and grand nine room home in mint condition at the sought after Carlyle House, perfectly situated at the corner of 77th Street and Madison Avenue. Enter the apartment from a private elevator landing into a grand 25 foot long marble entry gallery which sets the stage for this remarkable home with three bedrooms and a library. Off the gallery is the oversized living room with a wood burning fireplace, formal dining room, an inviting wood paneled library, and three large and lovely bedrooms. The oversized corner primary bedroom is a sunny and peaceful sanctuary with large closets and en-suite bath. The second and third bedrooms also have en-suite baths and the library could be converted to a fourth bedroom, as it has a powder room, easily convertible to a full bath. The enormous eat-in kitchen has been recently redone with top finishes and appliances and is well configured for a gourmet chef. There is a breakfast bar in the kitchen and just off the kitchen is a laundry room and two staff rooms (one currently used for storage) that share a full bath. Aside from the appeal of being part of the famed Carlyle Hotel, Carlyle House tenant shareholders can access the Hotel through a secure private door in their lobby. The co-op shares all the services available at the hotel including Dowling's, Cafe Carlyle, Bemelmans Bar, The Gallery, Valmont Spa, Fitness Room, Yves Durif Hair Salon, parking garage and even room service! Built together in 1929/30, the Carlyle House and Hotel were designed to appear as one building, only a block from Central Park and Fifth Avenue. The Carlyle House has its own private street entrance and boasts outstanding and discreet security and services. Named after the British essayist, Thomas Carlyle, the legendary Carlyle Hotel has hosted every American President since Truman, as well a wide array of royals and film stars. The super-low maintenance at the Carlyle House is due to a long-term lease transaction of their commercial and retail spaces along Madison Avenue. Two storage bins transfer with the apartment and there is a 2% flip tax by the buyer. Pets are welcomed!
