Property Description for 170 East 87th Street, EPH-1C

Palatial triplex penthouse available atop the Gotham Condominium. This meticulously renovated, gracious six bedroom residence flows seamlessly throughout its approximately 6,800 square feet. Designed and renovated in collaboration with architect David Bae, No detail was overlooked with its thoughtful planning and incorporation of the highest quality of materials.

The double height foyer featuring Venetian plaster walls and French limestone flooring provides the first impression of the home's close attention to detail. The adjacent media room fully paneled in lacquered Macassar ebony veneer sets the perfect tone for movie nights with a mini bar and black granite powder room.

Designed for the ultimate home entertainer, the second level of the triplex home is dedicated to hosting guests for any occasion. The formal dining room with seating for up to 20 people has enviable details such as silk upholstered walls, custom silver leaf ceilings with cove lighting and a butler's pantry with a full prep kitchen. A terrace kicks off the night with its open southern views and is accompanied by an onyx clad powder room.

The formal living room leads out to the penthouse's main outdoor space, an impressive 175-foot long terrace. Measuring 1,500 square feet, the terrace comes fully landscaped with irrigation, lighting, sound system, Wi-Fi and automatic awnings. The home features an additional 400 square feet of private space spread across multiple terraces and balconies.Through the gallery, a discerning buyer will notice the rich yet subtle materials used such as encased French limestone doorways and windowsills, Venetian plaster and exotic bleached Anigre walls with an integrated customizable art hanging system. A striking mother of pearl accent wall along the custom glass and aluminum staircase leads down to the residence's incomparable great room. At 700 square feet, the great room has south and west exposures with double balconies.

The impeccably designed kitchen is not only beautiful but also highly functional. Clad in Calacatta Vagli marble, the kitchen is equipped with top-of-the-line appliances such as Viking double ovens, warming drawers, four burner and wok range, two dishwashers, vented hood, built-in Miele coffee machine and a Gaggeneau package including a steam oven, freezer and two full size refrigerators. The Boffi lacquered cabinetry conceals every item seamlessly for a clean aesthetic.

Tucked behind the kitchen is additional storage, a walk-in pantry with a temperature controlled 600-bottle wine refrigerator and a polished marble powder room. Next to the kitchen is the playroom, home gym and staff room that can be easily reconfigured to create additional bedrooms or a dream master suite.

Heading upstairs, the uppermost level crowning the penthouse features four bedrooms including an unmatched master suite. The vaulted master bedroom with double exposure facing south and west has hidden features like built-in media surround sound and a drop down motorized projector. Flanked by double walk-in closets, the rose aurora clad master bathroom brings the ultimate level of comfort with heated floors, spa tub, steam shower and an enclosed water closet. Down the hall are three additional bedrooms with built-out closets and two bathrooms.

Built in East 87th Street is a 24-hour doorman/concierge building with amenities such as a health club with swimming pool, resident's lounge, children's playroom and outdoor playground located on the building's common terrace. The Gotham Condominium is located in Manhattan's Upper East Side with easy access to transportation, groceries and shopping. There's currently a monthly assessment of $1,094 for amenity upgrades ending February 2020.

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.
