They just don't make them like they used to! Welcome to the Beekman Mansion, one of Manhattans most prestigious prewar co-op buildings. Timeless details live on in this European style gem nestled in a quiet green oasis adjacent to the river. The apartment is a gut renovated true three bedroom home complete with central air, staff quarters, an oversized living and dining room, and three well-proportioned bedrooms and bathrooms. However, what makes this apartment so special is the blend between old and new.

Upon entering the apartment, you are greeted by a beautiful foyer with original herringbone floors and custom built-in storage cabinets along the walls. Then you follow the gleaming natural light into the exquisite living room. The living room is a large but also intimate space. Three huge casement windows offer great views of the tree lined streets and East river. High ceilings, oak floors, and a magnificent & operational wood burning fireplace make this room synonymous with elegance.

Those same details continue into the formal dining room. The dining room has matching herringbone floors along with 2 large casement windows. Adjacent to the dining room is the modern kitchen. Complete with top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, the kitchen is truly a chef's kitchen. Gas burning stove with an overhead vent, french door double refrigerator with a large freezer, wine cooler, multiple sinks, custom cabinetry, etc. The kitchen also has a door that leads into the staff's quarters. This is where the in-unit washer dryer is. You can also access these quarters from the apartments entrance.

The primary bedroom is big, bright, and has a walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom. The bathroom was gut renovated and has a modern feel. All of the other bedrooms can easily fit queen size beds and dressers and just like the balance of the apartment, all bedrooms come complete with ornate base and crown moldings and exposed wood beams in the ceiling.

The Beekman Mansion is a full-time doorman co-op located on in the highly desired Beekman area. Full-service building which includes a 24-hour doorman, live-in super, laundry rooms, and storage. One of Manhattan's best kept secrets.
