Property Description for 50 East 77th Street, 8-B
This high floor, grand scale eight (now seven) room apartment is located in the famed Carlyle House, one of Manhattan's most notable cooperative residences situated in the heart of the Upper East Side close to Central Park, world-class shopping, services, and restaurants. As the residential arm of the Carlyle Hotel, residents have access to many of the amenities offered at this distinguished hotel as well.
You enter the apartment from a semi-private elevator landing into a generous square gallery. The living room, dining room, library and powder room all flow directly off this foyer. The grand corner living room has sunny open exposures and views of Central Park. It features a wood-burning fireplace and four over-sized windows, capturing exposures and light from both North and West. The library/third bedroom is paneled and outfitted with a wet-bar. An elegant and welcoming dining room can easily accommodate large formal gatherings as well as intimate, familiar occasions. There is wiring for music throughout these rooms.
The bedroom wing is accessed through a hallway that separates it from the entertaining rooms. There are two generous and sunny bedrooms with en-suite baths. The lofty and sunny master bedroom features custom built-in closets and a newly renovated marble bath with Jacuzzi tub, and separate stall shower with Waterworks nickel hardware. The second bedroom also faces West with an en-suite windowed bath shared with the library/third bedroom.
An oversized modern, windowed eat-in-kitchen has every top appliance, liberal storage and a washer/dryer. Off the kitchen is a double staff room with a full bath. There are magnificent hardwood floors, through-wall AC in all rooms, high ceilings, timeless elegance, and classic details throughout.
Residents of the Carlyle House co-op have access through an interior lobby door to many amenities of the Carlyle Hotel including the full service health center and spa, business center, and hotel dining room offering breakfast, lunch, dinner, and afternoon tea. Residents may also choose to arrange for in-residence dining. In addition, the Carlyle is home to the famous Cafe Carlyle, offering a rotating calendar of the best cabaret talent and Bemelman's Bar, with its delightful murals and selective offerings of top musical talent.
Tenant and bike storage are also available for residents as well as 24/7 doormen and hall guards, and secured elevators. Co-Exclusive.

Upper East Side | Manhattan
Quick Profile
Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.
With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.
Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .
There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
