Enter a semi-private elevator landing into this high floor, pristine and sun-filled six room corner apartment. A formal entry gallery leads to an arched doorway into the gracious North-facing living room with huge windows and a wood-burning fireplace. Also off the gallery is an East-facing formal dining room (now a den/dining room) with lovely open city views and high beamed ceilings. There is also a separate home office created off the gallery. The windowed kitchen has marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, beautiful and abundant wood cabinetry, and a breakfast bar. There's a butler's pantry with a wet bar, wine cooler and refrigerator drawers. The staff room or third bedroom completes this section of the apartment with a half bath and full-size washer and vented dryer. The bedroom wing has a superb corner sun-filled primary bedroom with a renovated, oversized windowed bath with tub and separate shower stall. The second bedroom is adjacent to the primary and is also sun splashed with large windows. A second renovated oversized bath services the second bedroom and serves as a powder room. There is thru-wall AC, beautiful, recessed lighting throughout, and expansive walls for artwork. This white glove building with 64 apartments is known for its high level of service and grand and elegant lobby. The large friendly staff brings deliveries and mail directly to your apartment and there are two full-time doormen.

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.
