Description

Timeless Elegance on the Upper East Side

The legendary Imperial at 55 East 76th Street is a landmarked co-operative building recognized for its architectural neo-gothic exterior and magnificent interior design.

Completed in 1883 and designed by the eminent architect Frederick T. Camp, the original apartment details have been beautifully preserved, making its parquet floors, fireplace mantels, window shutters and Eastlake design moldings exceedingly rare.

Soaring ceilings and oversized south facing windows enhance the gracious drawing room and adjacent dining room, each with a lovely fireplace. Two bedrooms, 1.5 baths as well as a windowed kitchen and home office complete the layout.

There is a laundry and private storage area available to residents. The building has a part-time doorman on duty seven days a week from 8 a.m.

The Imperial's stellar location between Madison and Park Avenues and adjacent to the famous Carlyle Hotel make it perfect for walks in Central Park, upscale shopping and gallery browsing on Madison Avenue and within easy walking distance to Museum Mile.

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.
