MINT CONDITION UES TOWNHOUSE WITH GARDEN & TERRACES


This mint condition five-story townhouse is among a collection of elegant residences that distinguish this tree-lined block between Park and Lexington Avenues as one of the most beautiful on the Upper East Side. Just two blocks from Central Park it is also exceptionally accessible to many of Manhattan's finest shops, restaurants, and cultural institutions. With very high ceilings, expansive entertainment rooms, generous outdoor spaces, masterfully crafted interior finishes, and four fireplaces, it will steal your heart.

Exterior highlights of this move-in ready home include a freshly repointed brick facade, a landscaped garden that enjoys spectacular southern light, and two terraces. Meticulously renovated interiors are filled with light thanks to large windows, high ceilings, and skylights above the central staircase. The parlor floor offers a gracious setting for entertaining while the garden floor is ideal for relaxing and informal dining.

The full-floor master suite features two full bathrooms and a large dressing room overlooking the garden with extensive closet and storage space. Four additional bedrooms on the fourth and fifth floors provide flexibility for those who wish to create home offices, a home gym, or a children's playroom.
