About the building
Rarely does a home of this scale and character come to market.… Occupying an entire private floor within an intimate pre-war boutique building, this exceptional four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence is set on a beautiful, tree-lined townhouse block in the heart of Manhattan's Upper East Side.
A private elevator vestibule opens into approximately 4,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, where classic pre-war detail meets modern comfort. With exposures in every direction, the home is brimming with natural light throughout the day, enhancing its expansive feel.
The centerpiece of the home is a truly impressive entertaining space: an open concept living and dining room spanning 55'. The living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and framed by four sets of south-facing, full-height French doors with elegant Juliet railings, bringing in beautiful light and adding architectural presence. Coffered ceilings, hand-crafted moldings, and rich oak hardwood floors carry throughout, creating a warm yet refined atmosphere.
The custom, windowed chef's kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring stainless steel countertops, granite surfaces, double sinks, and premium Viking and Sub-Zero appliances. An electric oven is complemented by a gas range that vents out.
The home offers four generously sized bedrooms, with an additional den/office space off the kitchen which can easily be converted to a fifth. The primary suite is a standout, complete with charming bay windows and a gas fireplace, offering a quiet and comfortable retreat. Throughout the home, custom 8-foot solid wood doors, excellent storage, and multiple walk-in closets reflect the level of detail and care put into the design.
Additional features include two-zone central air conditioning, recessed lighting, WiFi access points throughout, and a full laundry room with a brand-new washer.
This is a rare opportunity to reside in a full-floor home that blends scale, light, and craftsmanship in one of the Upper East Side's most desirable settings.
A $20 Application Fee applies per applicant.
