Property Description for 389 East 89th Street, 21-B

Welcome home to 389 East 89th Street, 21B. This home is a gracious, corner two bedroom, two bathroom perched on a high floor, overlooking sprawling city and river views! The B-line is the most desirable line in the building, and for good reason. The split two bedroom home opens up to a grand open kitchen with dining, an over-sized living area, with draw dropping double exposure to the East and South. The open, gourmet kitchen was designed with the modern chef in mind. Complete with custom lacquered Italian kitchen cabinetry, and accentuated by the top-of-the-line fully paneled Miele appliance package. The kitchen is finished off with modern white veined marble countertops and backsplash, under counter lighting, wine fridge, and a large breakfast bar. This design is fantastic for entertaining and modern living alike. The living and dining room is truly the show case of the home, which has ample room to comfortably lounge, while still allowing a full sized dining set and cafe table for breakfast and coffee. The windows are beautifully adorned with white custom black-out shades and sheer curtains. The master bedroom suite fits a king sized bed with nightstands, plus plenty of room for extra storage and seating. The room is finished off with tasteful designer wall paper, and complimented with a large walk-in closet designed by California closets. Venture into the en suite master bathroom, and you will find the spa oasis you have been looking for. Upon stepping into this zen retreat, you will find everything you need to fully pamper: Dolomite marble floors and walls highlighted by a crackle glazed tile on the featured wall, a custom Italian-made grey oak double vanity with a custom-illuminated mirror designed by Paris Forino, a Toto toilet, a deep-soaking tub and polished chrome fixtures by Waterworks. The second bedroom is large enough to be a guest suite, home office, or nursery complete with California closets custom built-ins. The second bath serves the second bedroom, as well as a guest bath. Other key considerations: an abundance of closet storage through out, wiring for high-speed internet, 5-inch wide plank white oak floors, South facing sunlight, high ceilings, and a separate front loading washer and vented dryer by LG. The residences at 389 was re-envisioned by the highly praised Australian architect-designer, Paris Forino, the building is perfectly situated in proximity to the best parks and museums in all of Manhattan, as well as a myriad of shops, and new and established restaurants. Amenities include a 24-hour attended private residential lobby, residents’ lounge, playroom, communal outdoor terrace replete with a grill and garden landscaping on the third floor, fitness center, and spectacular roof deck with 360-degree views of Manhattan and beyond.

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.
