Property Description for 200 East 89th Street, PH-45BC

Coming to market on May 9th, there's absolutely nothing that rivals this stunning, one-of-a-kind Penthouse duplex at this price point. More photos to come!

A corner unit perched high in the sky, breathtaking views meet you at every turn of its lofty 2200sqft interior, and an additional 600sqft of private outdoor space – a wraparound terrace on the upper level, and three balconies on the lower level – confirm this property as one of those "often spoke of, but seldom seen" unicorns of Manhattan real estate.

With soaring ceilings and oversized windows, the eye stretches for miles, shifting between views of Central Park, the East River, the Hudson, George Washington Bridge, and the Long Island Sound. Flooded with light, you won't have to flick a switch until sunset, when the sea of city lights overtake the panoramic daytime views creating a magical dreamscape of New York.

The perfect home for entertaining, the 1750 sqft lower level has a remarkable fluidity of light and space. Featuring two entrances, the primary entry leads to an expansive Great Room, adjacent to a windowed pass-through kitchen with custom mid-century modern cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances. Just beyond, a 23' x 20' living room with a large corner balcony flows seamlessly into a 12' 5 x 19' dining area, also featuring a balcony. (The large dining area, originally a third bedroom, can easily be resurrected depending on one's desires.)

The second entry to the lower level gives direct access two large bedrooms, each able to accommodate a King-sized bed and more; one of which features a balcony – allowing a private escape for sunrise coffee or late-night stargazing.

Two full bathrooms, as well as an oversized half bath which can be outfitted with washer/dryer hookups, are also on this level.

From the lower level, a spiral staircase ascends to the jewel that sits atop this crown of Manhattan real estate: a 450 sqft solarium surrounded by a 400 sqft wraparound terrace. The potential function of this exquisite, terraced glass house is yours to decide – it could be used as a guest suite, a personal gym, a recreation room, home office, greenhouse, or an extension of the entertainment space below. Additionally, there's a large closet on this level which can be converted into an additional half bath.

Unlike anything you've ever seen, with its incomparable views, layout and light, beautiful custom woodwork and thoughtfully designed storage throughout, this is the kind of apartment that will prompt the slack-jawed question from all who enter it: "How did you find this place?"

Priced to move quickly and allow for the cost of any updating you might want to do, make your appointment today. Exceptional properties like this rarely become available, particularly at this price point: this is the apartment you'll want to call home.

Expertly managed, building amenities include: a full-time doorman, concierge, atrium pool, sauna, steam room, Jacuzzi, and a state-of-the art fitness center. A garage in the building can be used for a separate fee. Convenient to transportation, as well as countless restaurants and shops, Whole Foods is only a block way!

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.
