234 E 70TH Street #PH

This luxuriously appointed 2,600 square foot 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom residence offers the privacy and grandeur of townhouse-style living at penthouse heights with 600 square feet of outdoor space at 234 East 70th Street, a boutique condominium in the heart of the Upper East Side. Enter from the 8th floor through a keyed elevator and be greeted by an expansive 20-foot living room with adjacent Poggenpohl kitchen with Miele appliances, Caesarstone counter and open bar area as well as dining alcove. Through a pair of massive glass doors, this entire space flows seamlessly into a large terrace looking North onto tree-lined East 70th Street, making this home ideal for those who enjoy entertaining. Toward the rear of the first level, a gallery leads past multiple closets as well as two bathrooms, one half and one full. Beyond, two additional rooms occupy the southern end of the first level and are currently configured as a media room with custom built-ins as well as additional bedroom. Either of these rooms can be repurposed, with one being a formal dining room. Ascending to the second level, two more rooms of similar proportion currently function as a bedroom as well as home office but may be converted according to need. Both of these rooms are served by a second, beautifully renovated full bathroom with Ann Sacks tile, spa tub and overhead rain shower, and adjacent washer/dryer that vents to the outside. The primary suite encompasses the remainder of the second floor featuring its own private terrace, making this a perfect sanctuary sectioned off from the rest of the residence. Closet space abounds with a large, windowed walk-in closet offering custom built-ins as well as a true dressing room with four full walls of custom built-in shelving. The dressing room leads into a secluded and beautifully appointed master bathroom which boasts a sizeable linen closet, floor-to-ceiling tiling, calacatta marble, a double vanity as well as double-sided spa shower. This residence also offers a fully equipped Crestron system to control your HVAC, Audio and Video throughout. The crown jewel atop this extraordinary residence, however, is the private roof top terrace. With its own refrigerator, a gas grill and pizza oven, this expansive space could comfortably feed and accommodate a sizeable gathering of friends, family, and acquaintances or serve as the backdrop for an intimate evening at home while offering the ambiance of city lights and open air. 234 East 70th Street is a modern boutique condominium built in 2011 featuring full-floor residences. This luxurious yet stylish building showcases a black granite facade as well as oversized Norwood mahogany windows and doors. A video intercom security system and keyed elevator entry offer security as well as discretion, and the newly completed 2nd Avenue Subway is moments away.
