Property Description for 40 East 62nd Street, 5-W
Unit #5W at 40 East 62 Street
Newly Renovated Pre-War Condo
Three Bedrooms / 2.5 Bathrooms / 2,060 Sqft.
Welcome to this newly renovated 3 bed 2.5 bath pre-war condo apartment in one of the most coveted blocks of the Upper East Side. This unit just underwent an extensive and exquisite renovation where no detailed was spared to create a bespoke home that combines custom finishes and high-end materials with a superb use of space. With newly installed solid white oak 8" plank floors, new concrete sub flooring, plumbing risers, electrical work, and a new Mitsubishi City Multi central air system, this unit was gut renovated to the studs. Cat-6 wiring was run throughout and downlighting was custom designed for the entire space. A true pre-war gem that can't be missed.
A semi-private landing opens up to a grand living room featuring large bay windows overlooking East 62nd Street. This room seamlessly flows into a large and elegant windowed dining room creating a magnificent loft like space ideal for modern living and entertaining. The newly redesigned Poliform kitchen can be access both through the dining room or the main hallway. This custom designed windowed kitchen features marble titled floors, brand new top-of-the-line Miele appliances, custom built-ins and a fully vented Miele hood. Next to the hallway, a well-appointed powder bathroom featuring Toto toilet and Duravit and Hansgrohe fixtures.
An elegant hallway leads to the private quarters. There are two generously sized bedrooms, one of them with an en-suite bathroom, and an office/den space. All the rooms feature custom closet systems. At the end of the hallway, a luxurious primary suite. Originally configured as two rooms, the primary suite is expansive and has both South and East exposure. The en-suite primary bathroom features Dornbracht fixtures, Duravit double vanities and Toto toilet. The apartment also features a Miele washer and dryer.
40 East 62nd Street is a neo-Medieval style brick, stone, and terra cotta building designed by architect Albert Joseph Bodker. It was completed in 1912 and converted to a condominium in 1996. The building has nine floors with two apartments per floor, a doorman/elevator operator and superintendent. Located between Park and Madison, this prewar condo is in the perfect location, close to Central Park as well as some of the finest shopping and dining in the Manhattan.
Virtually staged. Available also for sale.

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.
