A formal entryway offers a warm welcome to this home, before leading into the spacious living room complete with wood burning fireplace and a fantastic wall of windows. A perfect dining area for hosting flanks the separate windowed kitchen which is complete with ample counter space and storage. Positioned on the sun-filled south side of the building, both bedrooms are separated from the living area - with a second full bathroom being accessible from the hallway. The oversized primary bedroom features an updated en-suite, excellent closet space and an abundance of custom built in storage.

Carnegie Hill | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Carnegie Hill is a small neighborhood at the northern tip of the Upper East Side that borders Central Park. It is steeped in history, great wealth, architecture and culture. It is known for its world-class museums and its rows of historic mansions. Nothing much changes here as the entire area is landmarked, preventing the proliferation of high-rise developments. Thus the buildings stay a human scale, the sky is aplenty and the neighborhood kind of feels like a small town to its long time residents.

The name Carnegie Hill is derived from the industrial magnate Andrew Carnegie, when Carnegie decided to build himself a mansion at 91st Street and Fifth Avenue….

Carnegie Hill is a family neighborhood with old fashioned upper crust money. The mid-rise co-ops that line the avenues are among the most prestigious addresses in the city. The avenues are lined with small restaurants, boutique shops

The residential towers that have proliferated on the eastside of Third Avenue in the East 90s simply do not exist between Lexington and Fifth.
