Stunning Central Park views and grand proportions characterize this expansive and meticulously renovated 3 bedroom, 3 and a half bath jewel at 812 Fifth Avenue. Residence 6 has been meticulously transformed to suit the most discerning contemporary taste. The highest quality finishes and fixtures were selected to create this one of a kind home. From designer lighting and architecturally unique ceilings, to custom wood paneling throughout, no detail was spared. A gracious paneled entry gallery with marble inlay floors and rounded tray ceiling with cove lighting leads into a magnificent and modern great room featuring picture perfect direct views of Central Park from oversized windows, a recessed lacquered ceiling with cove lighting, beautiful hardwood floors and a sleek fireplace. Nearly 31 feet in length, the room offers a generous footprint and can accommodate a variety of seating arrangements and serves as the perfect backdrop for entertaining. The large formal dining room can accommodate lavish dinner parties of 12 or more seated guests, and is graced by a large window with open eastern views and features elegant, artistic accent walls. A nearby bar/serving area connects to the bespoke windowed chef’s kitchen. Abundant custom cabinetry & pantry storage, expansive countertop surface, a striking oval island with integrated seating, and top-of-the-line Miele & Sub-Zero appliances enhance the culinary experience. Off the kitchen sits a convenient staff room or home office with full bathroom and washer-dryer. The king-size primary bedroom is serene and inviting, with a tray ceiling and sitting area that overlooks the park and city. A massive custom-outfitted walk-in closet, and an exquisite en-suite bath with oversized glass-enclosed rainfall shower complete the main bedroom retreat.

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.
