Property Description for 870 United Nations Plaza, 24-D

Previously featured in Architectural Digest, this 2 bedroom home—converted from 4—spreads luxuriously across 5,500 SF of space and is finished with gorgeous Parquet de Versailles floors, custom built-in storage, and Burl Walnut doors. Enchanted with breathtaking Manhattan views and droves of custom details, residence 24DE is perfectly suited for everyday living and grand entertaining.

The home opens with an elegant, mirrored foyer and sweeping East River views that guide the eye to an expansive library. Lavish, regal, and bathed in natural light, the library possesses massive floor-to-ceiling windows and plenty of storage space. It sits adjacent to a formal dining room with space for a table of 14 and a beautiful, gourmet kitchen rich with views, top-of-the-line appliances, and an abundance of cabinetry—including a pantry that neatly conceals the home’s washer and dryer.

Occupying its own private wing, the master suite is an apartment unto itself. It comprises of a sitting room, two marble bathrooms, a dressing area, and a roomy walk-in closet complete with custom storage. In the opposite wing lies the home’s second bedroom and home office. Generously sized, the second bedroom has a sitting room and an ornate, marble bathroom of its own. The home office is accessible from the second bedroom and can be used for additional storage space or simply as another room to enjoy the calming influence of bridge and river views. An additional corner staff room with its own set of floor-to-ceiling windows is also available for sale with the home.

Built in 1966, 870 United Nations Plaza was designed by master architects Harrison & Abramovitz. The timeless exterior features wide panels of glass and is a fixture in the Manhattan skyline. Building amenities include a doorman, concierge, garage, fitness center, Pilates studio, golf room, laundry room, and a roof deck. Additionally, each home comes with its own private storage units. 3% flip tax paid by buyer. 50% financing allowed.

Beekman Place | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Beekman Place is less of a neighborhood than it is a quiet two-block enclave just north of the United Nations on the far eastern edge of Turtle Bay. There is only one street that runs through the neighborhood, also called Beekman Place, that wraps itself around 49th Street and 51st Street.  

This bucolic little stretch of the east side has always been a cherished spot for those fortunate enough to have found refuge here. The noise and the street traffic from the city surrounds is virtually non-existent as there are no through streets in this neighborhood.  

The neighborhood composition largely consists of a few clusters of townhouses and prewar co-ops. The exception to the rule is the charming art-deco-styled Beekman Place Hotel at the corner of First Avenue and 49th Street and the two post-war towers, 860 and 870 UN Plaza that front the grounds of the United Nations.
