Property Description for 51 East 90th Street, 5-B

Prime Carnegie Hill Classic 6 with Superb Layout and Open Southern Exposure! Best Price in this Prized Landmark District and Museum Mile Home!

THE APARTMENT
Wonderful opportunity to customize a large canvas. Roomy yet intimate Classic 6 apartment has a brilliant layout and exceptional prewar detail and charm. Full time doorman building is located mere moments from Central Park, The Guggenheim and Metropolitan museums, Madison Avenue shopping and some of the best schools in the city.

With just 3 other apartments on the floor, this quiet and private home is led by an entry foyer and opens to a spacious formal dining room and expansive living room. There is a gracious flow between rooms and 9 foot beamed ceilings. City, treetop and blue sky views through new windows elevate this very charming space. Freshly painted with refinished hardwood floors, this apartment can accommodate immediate move-in or can be reimagined into the new owner's dream space.

The large, windowed kitchen with additional pantry offers great storage and the versatility to redesign and expand if one desires. If the current layout is kept as-is, the adjacent staff room with windowed bath is perfect for an office. The oversized master bedroom consists of an en suite bath while the second bedroom also enjoys generous size and space, direct sunlight and lovely neighborhood views. Every room including all three bathrooms have a window.

Whether enjoying these wonderful bones or designing your dream space with the potential for three full bedrooms, three bathrooms or a fully open kitchen, this is a jewel which feels immediately like home and offers amazing potential. This apartment was owned by the same family for over 50 years.

Carnegie Hill | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Carnegie Hill is a small neighborhood at the northern tip of the Upper East Side that borders Central Park. It is steeped in history, great wealth, architecture and culture. It is known for its world-class museums and its rows of historic mansions. Nothing much changes here as the entire area is landmarked, preventing the proliferation of high-rise developments. Thus the buildings stay a human scale, the sky is aplenty and the neighborhood kind of feels like a small town to its long time residents.

The name Carnegie Hill is derived from the industrial magnate Andrew Carnegie, when Carnegie decided to build himself a mansion at 91st Street and Fifth Avenue….

Carnegie Hill is a family neighborhood with old fashioned upper crust money. The mid-rise co-ops that line the avenues are among the most prestigious addresses in the city. The avenues are lined with small restaurants, boutique shops

The residential towers that have proliferated on the eastside of Third Avenue in the East 90s simply do not exist between Lexington and Fifth.
