Property Description
Gracious in scale, this delightful and renovated residence benefits from an expansive and versatile layout and very attractive outlooks. Light-filled and elegant, this residence's modern conveniences are framed with delightfully classic prewar detail, such as gleaming herringbone and parquet oak floors, French doors, restored original hardware, and oversized, eight-over-eight windows.
From a private elevator landing, the welcoming Gallery opens to an exceedingly large and pleasant Living Room with a wood-burning fireplace and French doors that open to wrought-iron Juliet balconies overlooking East 79th Street. The scale of the room allows for multiple seating arrangements and is ideal for entertaining. Adjacent, the splendid formal Dining Room shares these attractive northern outlooks, as does the stylish paneled Library, which also benefits from a wood-burning fireplace.
Beyond, a sleekly white custom Kitchen is supported by a proper butler's pantry with laundry as well as an attractive breakfast room with banquette seating and additional storage. The latter opens to the beautiful Living Room, making it perfect for a more intimate dinner while still benefiting from the elegance of its adjacent surroundings.
Private quarters include a serene Primary Bedroom Suite comprised of a large north-facing Bedroom with very ample closets and a marble bathroom renovated with style and appropriate period detail. There are two additional Bedrooms, each with its own bathroom.
Built in 1928 by renowned architect Francis Burrell Hoffman, 136 East 79th Street is a full-service, white-glove cooperative with a 24-hour doorman and a resident manager. The building's amenities include bicycle and wine storage, a private fitness center, and a lovely landscaped garden on the ground floor. The apartment has a large storage bin that transfers with the sale. Perfectly located in the very heart of the Upper East Side, this wonderful residence is convenient to many of the city's best schools, museums, restaurants and shops, and to the pleasures of Central Park. Pets are welcome. 50% financing permitted; there is a 3% flip tax.
