Property Description for 10 Gracie Square, 6-A

Grand and sprawling 4-5 bedroom corner duplex apartment overlooking the East River in one of the city's most beautiful and coveted buildings, 10 Gracie Square.

Off a private elevator landing, a beautifully proportioned foyer leads to a double-sized living room pouring over the East River, with a large private balcony perfect for evening cocktails, a wood-burning fireplace and stunning herringbone hardwood floors. To one side of the living room is a formal dining room which can easily seat 20, also with magical river views, and to the other a gorgeous wood-paneled corner library with another wood-burning fireplace, wet bar and elegant guest bathroom, offering South and East views over the river, and access to the balcony as well. There is a butler's pantry with marvelous storage and a washer and dryer, a second guest bathroom, and an enormous double-sized windowed eat-in chef's kitchen, with a built-in dining area, custom wood- and sand-blasted glass cabinets, stone floors and counters, top-of-the-line appliances including 2 refrigerators, a separate freezer, 2 ovens, a 6-burner professional grade stove and massive storage.

A handsome staircase leads to the upper level bedroom floor which offers 5 stately bedrooms off a central level hall. The corner Master bedroom suite offers South and West exposures, a large walk-in closet and the property's third wood-burning fireplace. Off the Master bedroom is a second bedroom currently serving as the Master's home office but easily restored for private bedroom use. The remaining 3 bedrooms are all graciously proportioned and each have their own en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet or walls of closets - the closet space is phenomenal throughout.

Additional features of this baronial home are soaring 11-foot ceilings, glorious prewar detail and discreet through-wall air conditioning. It also comes with a separate 9'x12' private storage room downstairs.

10 Gracie Square is an architecturally exquisite full-service cooperative built in 1930 and universally regarded as one of the most desirable buildings in Manhattan. It offers its discerning residents full-time lobby attendants, a live-in resident manager, a private drive-through breezeway, private storage, bicycle storage and its own indoor basketball/squash court. Pets are welcomed and there is a 3% flip tax, payable by the purchaser.

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.
