Property Description for 206 East 73rd Street, PH-W

Rarely does a home of this caliber come to market, especially on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. This triplex penthouse, designed by The Turett Collaborative and perched atop the Blanca Loft Condominium, is one such jewel.


FIRST FLOOR A private elevator opens to the foyer, lined in blackened steel panels and an impressive two-story wall clad entirely in Vals Quartzite stone, hand-selected by the architect and the first of its kind to be used in a private residential project in the US. The resin and glass components of the architecture allow light from the rooftop terrace and the skylights to disperse and refract artistically and ever-changing throughout the interior. The living room opens directly onto a landscaped private terrace in a seamless expanse of interior and exterior sanctuary.


The matte white Corian-clad kitchen, complete with Gaggenau, Miele, and Subzero appliances marries living with dining to create a large space ideal for entertaining. The adjacent powder room is, by contrast, seductive and intimate. Directly behind the kitchen lies a discreet ensuite guest suite with a private terrace, bathroom lined with teak planks, a walk-in steam shower, and elegant glass tile.


SECOND FLOOR This floor includes a large master bedroom, mezzanine, private southern facing terrace, large walk-in closet, and a master bath beyond compare. Enclosed with floor-to-ceiling glass walls that transition from clear to opaque at the flip of a switch, the master bath provides a 300-gallon white Corian bathing pool with chromatherapy lights, an overhead stainless steel rain feature, an oversized skylight, and a laser-cut vanity carved from a single piece of Vals Quartzite.


Adjacent to the master bathroom is the master study which cantilevers effortlessly over the living, dining, kitchen space below.


THIRD FLOOR On the third floor, a bridge leads to a landscaped roof terrace which runs the entire length of the penthouse from front to back and offers inviting and open views of the city, both north and south.


Rare and specially crafted, this home is the embodiment of elegant and thoughtful design. With ample closet space, an integrated Sonos sound and Lutron lighting systems, a security system, a large private indoor storage space, multi-zone Nest climate control, W/D, and 4,000+ square feet of interior and exterior space, this turnkey home is move-in ready. Located in the heart of the Upper East Side, on a tree-lined and historic block, this home is surrounded by some of the best cafés/restaurants, shopping, and museums that Manhattan living has to offer.

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.
