Mint Condition 2-Bedroom + Convertible Home Office at The Philip House This mint-condition 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath home with a convertible home office spans over 1,700 square feet at the renowned Philip House, a prewar condominium perfectly situated on the Upper East Side. An elegant entry foyer opens into an expansive, sun-flooded living room with double exposures— east and south —offering tree-lined views and abundant natural light throughout the day. The gracious layout includes a dining area seamlessly connected to the large, eat-in chef’s kitchen, ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with Belgian bluestone countertops and top-of-the-line appliances by Wolf, Miele, and Sub-Zero, including double ovens, a six-burner range, a wine refrigerator, and a microwave.

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
