Description

An elevated perspective in the heart of Manhattan.

Residence 22B is a masterfully designed corner home in mint condition, offering everything one could desire in a sophisticated urban retreat: Great Room with 10' High-ceilings and walls of glass, two private balconies, glowing gas fireplace, multi-zone central air conditioning, in-unit washer/dryer, private home office and two sun-drenched exposures to the south and west.

The open and integrated kitchen is perfect for any chef, replete with Viking appliances, beautiful stone countertops and breakfast bar, and intertwines perfectly with the loft-like Great Room. This spacious area has a custom built-in audio speaker system throughout and stunning views of the surrounding Cityscape. The split layout provides for a comfortable primary bedroom retreat with en-suite marble bath which includes heated floors, separate stall shower and a deep soaking tub. Gleaming wide plank teak floors, recessed lighting and generous closet space are found all throughout.

Currently comprised as a 1,113 sq. ft. 1 Bedroom, 2 Bath plus Home Office, this line is configured as a 2 bedroom layout on most other floors, which can also be done here if that aligns with the needs of the new homeowner.

Situated where Midtown and the Upper East Side converge, 205 East 59th Street was completed in 2003 and remains one of the most enviable full-service white-glove condominiums in Manhattan. Only three homes per floor provide an optimal level of intimacy and exclusivity. In addition to the concierge and 24-hour doorman, an extensive array of building amenities include a covered dog park, fitness center, and sundeck. The building is centrally located near Central Park, convenient to all major transportation, and arguably the best shopping and restaurants NYC has to offer such as Daikanyama, Sant Ambroeus, David Burke Tavern, Le Bilboquet. Whole Foods and the newly opened Trader Joes are also nearby.

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.
