Description
A left turn from the entryway reveals a staircase leading to the second bedroom, complete with its own ensuite bathroom. The entire apartment is thoughtfully soundproofed, ensuring a peaceful and serene environment. An unexpected delight awaits a step down from the formal living room – a large second living space or den, providing versatility to the living arrangement. The kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring high-end appliances, marble countertops, stunning millwork, a full-sized washer and dryer, and a generously sized pantry.
Off the north side of the den, a secret door reveals the lavish primary suite stretching nearly 29 feet. This luxurious retreat boasts a second wood-burning fireplace, a windowed walk-in dressing room, and an ensuite bathroom.
Additional features of this exceptional home include beautiful walnut-stained oak floors and motorized window shades. Nestled on charming East 78th Street, a tree-lined block in close proximity to Central Park, upscale shops, galleries, museums, restaurants, and convenient transportation options, this residence offers the epitome of Manhattan living.
Built in 1927, the elegant art-deco co-operative building comprises only thirty-eight residences, ensuring exclusivity and privacy for discerning buyers. A pet-friendly cooperative, the building boasts a 24-hour doorman and a live-in superintendent, providing full-service amenities to its residents. Whether you seek a primary residence or the perfect pied-à-terre (permitted on a case-by-case basis), this intimate building stands as the ideal place to call home.
