Property Description for 1355 First Ave, 26-FLR

Introducing the magnificent 26th Floor Residence at The Charles Condominium, a soaring full-floor home of exceptional sophistication. Encompassing 3,595 square feet, this Upper East Side four-bedroom, four bathroom sanctuary with separate den offers tremendous volume of light and space, creating a rare and modern experience of a townhouse in the sky.

From the private elevator landing, one enters a dramatic expanse where 10-foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling glass frame open city views in every direction. Bathed in natural light from sunrise to sunset, the residence offers sweeping panoramas of Manhattan's skyline, a dynamic backdrop for both refined entertaining and serene daily living.

The great room, stretching more 30-feet wide with almost 50-feet of glass windows, is a statement of scale and elegance, seamlessly merging living and dining areas into a loft-like configuration. A modern kitchen anchors the space with an expansive center island/breakfast bar, complemented by top-tier Miele and Subzero appliances. Throughout the residence, high-end, bespoke millwork and finishes elevate each moment.

The den, ideally located off the kitchen, is perfectly proportioned, offering flexibility as a media lounge, home office, or intimate library, extending the versatility of the home.

The primary suite is a serene private retreat, capturing endless skyline vistas through walls of glass. The exquisite windowed spa bathroom, clad in Bianco Dolomiti marble, features dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a glass-enclosed stall shower. Storage is abundant, featuring a custom walk-in closet alongside a meticulously outfitted hallway suite to meet the most exacting standards.

Three additional bedrooms, each with en suite marble baths and generous proportions, offer both privacy and elegance.

Hardwood floors run throughout, enriched by radiant heat in select rooms and bathrooms and a dedicated laundry room with premium Electrolux appliances adds convenience.

The Charles itself exemplifies boutique luxury, with white-glove services, a fully equipped fitness center, a playroom, and private storage for every residence.

Perched high on the 26th floor with breathtaking, unobstructed city views, this full-floor residence at The Charles is a rarefied offering and an unparalleled combination of scale, design, and sophistication.

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.
