Property Description for 123 East 75th Street, 2-B

Expansive interior and exterior space creates a full-sized home in the heart of the Upper East Side. Like a townhouse, this duplex apartment has three massive outdoor spaces and three interior living spaces for large group entertaining. The first floor provides sprawling common areas. To the left of the foyer is a powder bathroom for guests and a large double-sized den. One of the outdoor terraces and its two spaces can be accessed from the den, and the glass windows create an open flow between the interior and exterior spaces. This terrace has a large dining area which can fit a table that seats twelve. At the end of the table a wall-mounted outdoor TV is perfectly located for entertaining. The second separate space on the terrace can be used for more seating or landscaping. Off of the den is a multi-functional room that can serve as a media room, parent-in-law suite, or guest bedroom. It has an en suite bathroom, fully equipped bar and locked private wine closet. Glass French doors in this room provide additional access to the terrace. The other wing off of the foyer leads to the kitchen, windowed dining area and formal living room. The kitchen is outfitted with high end appliances including a sub-zero refrigerator and Viking range. It opens up through a breakfast bar to the dining area, which sports a window seat banquette. The formal dining room is enclosed with a curved glass window wall, allowing for maximum sunlight. This overlooks another terrace, which has views of the beautiful facade of Saint John Baptiste across Lexington Avenue. Off of the dining area is a winter garden with glass paneled walls, which can serve as a formal dining room or sitting room, and connects two terraces. A curved staircase decorated with Venetian plaster leads to the second floor with three bedrooms and three bathrooms. The master bedroom has a walk-in master closet and large marble bathroom with double sinks and steam shower. The second bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and overlooks the peaceful terrace below. The third bedroom has its own bathroom, accessed across the hallway. There is also a washer and dryer located in a sizable utility room. The apartment sports 12 closets, providing plenty of storage space. Located at 75th and Lexington and two blocks from the 6 train, this home could not be more conveniently situated. The apartment is extremely quiet and one could mistake being outside of the city when lounging on an interior terrace. The building has a full-time doorman and gym. Co-purchasers, guarantors, gifting and pied-a-terres are permitted. There is currently a $171.05/month assessment for three capital projects.

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.
