Property Description for 9 East 79th Street, 10/11

Residence 10/11 at 9 East 79th Street spans the tenth and eleventh floors at one of the city's most exclusive addresses. This elegant boutique cooperative houses only seven homes and units here rarely come on the market. The architecturally stunning duplex offers two floors of living space, direct elevator access, and park views.

Off the elevator, you enter onto the main floor where a gracious foyer, grand staircase, and immense living areas await. The northern most sitting area offers spectacular western views of Central Park with double height ceilings in addition to wraparound windows to the south and east. A modern fireplace can be found on the eastern wall adjacent to a fully integrated built in entertainment center.

The formal dining room can accommodate gatherings from intimate dinner parties to larger catered events. This area of the home features built in storage throughout, and a half bath, wet bar, and butler's pantry lead you to the spacious and bright chef's kitchen. Here, professional grade Viking and Miele appliances enable everything from everyday cooking to upscale and catered dinner parties. An additional seating area, back staircase, and direct access to the service elevator complete this well-lit space.

Upstairs, you will find the private quarters, including 4 bedrooms with built in bookcases and ample storage. The corner master suite features an en-suite home office that overlooks the first floor sitting area and as well as the park beyond. An enormous walk-in closet commands its own attention while the windowed master bathroom showcases a marble soaking tub and glass enclosed shower.

The second bedroom includes an en-suite full bathroom as well. A full sized Miele washer and dryer are located in the hall as you head toward the final 2 bedrooms and an additional full bathroom. The elegant home features Lutron lighting and electric shades throughout.

9 East 79th Street is a premier and exclusive doorman building located just off Central Park. Residents of the seven homes here enjoy full concierge services while maintaining the utmost privacy. The prime location provides easy access to 5th Avenue, Madison Avenue, and Park Avenue.

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.
