Description

Sitting on one of Manhattan’s most coveted and beautiful blocks, this exceptional full fl oor penthouse sprawls over approximately 3,000 sq.ft., offering stunning views over the Frick Mansion, the treetops of 70th Street and onto Central Park. Thoughtfully laid out with a carefully considered division of private quarters and entertaining space, this three bedroom, three and a half bathroom home boasts ample natural light through three exposures.

The elevator ushers you onto a private landing and into the grand foyer of this classic Upper East Side apartment. A spacious grand room lies before you with iconic Manhattan views to the north, west and south. Flowing seamlessly into one another, there is nonetheless a distinct separation of living and dining space, and an elegant library boasts stunning views down Madison Avenue. The windowed, eat-in kitchen features a huge Caesarstone clad breakfast bar/kitchen island, a suite of appliances from Wolf, Thermador and SubZero, as well as a spacious separate pantry. A powder room and large coat closet sit discreetly off the foyer, and coffered ceilings, beautiful inlay wood fl oors and stunning original details round out the attentive aesthetic choices in this home.

Pocket doors discreetly delineate the private quarters, with an expansive primary suite sitting on the northeast corner. A large dressing room with ample closet space and a windowed, ensuite bathroom with a large, freestanding tub, separate shower and WC, and custom mosaic tiles create the tranquil, luxurious atmosphere of the primary suite. Two more bedrooms feature ensuite bathrooms and large closets.
A meticulously designed, landscaped 1,248 sq.ft. private rooftop terrace crowns this unforgettable home, and provides breathtaking 270° views. Designed with a restrained and balanced aesthetic, the landscaping features lit gravel and wood pathways, and well maintained plantings.

Designed by distinguished architect Emory Roth, the landmarked building at 28 East 70 Street consists of only eleven residences and is serviced by two elevators. Residents enjoy the privacy, security and highest white-glove levels of service afforded by a full-time doorman. Listing courtesy of Modlin Group LLC ...
