Timeless Elegance Meets Modern Comfort in Carnegie Hill Nestled in the heart of Carnegie Hill, between Fifth and Madison Avenues, this beautifully renovated and reimagined Classic 6 residence effortlessly combines prewar charm with contemporary updates, offering the perfect balance of elegance and functionality. Enter through a semi-private vestibule into a gracious gallery, leading to a sunlit living room with a wood-burning fireplace framed by a stunning marble mantle. The living room flows seamlessly into the formal dining room or den, both of which boast picturesque views over Madison Avenue. The meticulously renovated Chef’s kitchen is a culinary dream, featuring marble countertops, a Viking 6-burner range, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and custom light wood cabinetry. A butler’s pantry doubles as an eat-in area, while a Miele washer and dryer are discreetly tucked away in a closet at the back of the kitchen. This spacious apartment offers three bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a home office. The private bedroom wing includes two generously sized bedrooms, each with excellent closet space and en-suite baths adorned with marble finishes, mosaic tile flooring, and timeless elegance. The third bedroom, originally designed as a versatile staff room or office, includes a half bath and closet, providing flexibility for various needs. Every detail of this home has been thoughtfully curated, from the dark-stained herringbone floors to the custom window treatments throughout. The building boasts a handsome vaulted ceiling lobby where an attentive 24-hour doorman and concierge warmly greet you upon entering. Additional amenities include a bike room, laundry facilities, low monthly maintenance, and a live-in superintendent. Private storage conveys with the apartment, and pets and pieds-a-terre are welcome. This prewar cooperative offers the charm of a bygone era paired with modern comforts. Located in a premier school district and steps from some of the best shopping and dining on the Upper East Side, this is truly Carnegie Hill living at its finest. 50% financing permitted.
