Description

With sunlight dancing across the East River and views stretching to the Queensboro Bridge, one of the first resales of the coveted A-line at 40 East End Avenue is a rare and extraordinary offering. Designed by Deborah Berke, Dean of the Yale School of Architecture, and masterfully enhanced by internationally acclaimed designer Garrow Kedigian, this residence has been elevated far beyond its original vision. Every inch reflects a level of craftsmanship and refinement rarely found.

Residence 12A presents a half-floor, three bedroom, three and one half bath home. As you step into the gracious foyer, East River views welcome you, accompanied by abundant natural light streaming in through the oversized casement windows. This exceptional residence spans 2,230 square feet, boasting 10-foot ceilings, expansive oversized casement windows, Juliet balconies, custom moldings, 8-foot doorways, and white oak herringbone flooring throughout the main living areas.

A particular aesthetic defines the home, with exquisite custom millwork throughout, coffered ceilings with integrated lighting infrastructure in the bedrooms, and thoughtfully designed built-ins that balance beauty with function. Lutron window treatments with remote control provide seamless light and privacy, complemented by custom shades and designer wall coverings that add richness, texture, and depth.

The open chef's kitchen, featuring an oversized island, showcases high-gloss lacquer painted Italian cabinetry elegantly paired with hand-selected Italian Arabescato Cervaiole marble slabs. Upper cabinet doors are adorned with a distinctive woven metal mesh panel and beveled trim, introducing a refined pattern to the kitchen's design. Completing this culinary haven are sophisticated appliances by Gaggenau all under a 10 year warranty, and ample storage space. A meticulously maintained 5 zone HVAC system-supported by a service contract-ensures optimal comfort year-round.

The spacious primary bedroom suite comprises a gracious walk-in closet, secondary closet, and an en-suite primary bathroom adorned with hand-selected Arabescato Cervaiole marble, fluted mirrored glass panels, a custom Italian vanity, and Waterworks Henry collection fixtures in polished nickel. The primary bathroom also features a 6-foot soaking tub, walk-in shower, private water closet, and radiant heated floors.

Two additional generous bedrooms, each with an en-suite bath, and a stunning powder room, complete the space.

Included in the offering are three 65+ inch televisions, two with integrated SONOS soundbars, delivering a truly turnkey experience. A massive, temperature-controlled storage room transfers with the residence.

The amenities at 40 East End seamlessly extend the luxurious living experience. Adjacent to the lobby, the impressive double-height Parlor Lounge welcomes residents with custom upholstered seating, a wet bar, a dramatic chandelier, and a sculptural marble staircase with bronze cladding. On the second floor, a suite of amenities awaits, including The Library-a graciously furnished refuge for out-of-office work; The Game Room, equipped with foosball, billiards, table tennis, and darts to entertain all ages; The Gourmet Catering Kitchen, servicing the common spaces; and The Fitness Center, featuring state-of-the-art exercise equipment and training tools to promote an active lifestyle. The porte-cochère allows for convenient loading and drop offs.

Set along the tranquil East River, this home offers a rare blend of serenity, architectural pedigree, and uncompromising luxury. This is not simply a residence--it is a fully realized, designer-crafted living experience of the highest caliber.
