Description

A gracious upper east side lifestyle awaits at 519 East 86th Street. A verdant Georgian style entry replete with an iconic NYC doorman beckons one to the stylish and luxurious home that is residence 4DE. An impressive formal arched gallery entry marks your welcome to this lavish residence. Custom shelving lines the gallery hall lit with crystal Ralph Lauren accented lighting and plentiful wall space for your collection of fine art.

Drenched in dappled sunlight and bonhomie, the generous living room is loft-like with just the perfect touch of formality. Complimented with nine-foot ceilings, surround sound and four expansive windows dressed in Lee Jofa custom shades, this is the hallmark of gracious living. Ideal for entertaining, the eat in kitchen flows seamlessly from the formal dining room with a second entrance from the gallery as well. Enjoy quiet meals, prepared on the Blue Star range and dual ovens while gazing out both kitchen windows from the custom dining nook that seats five. Custom cut Silestone counters and white cabinets with polished hardware, and a beaded chandelier by Ro Sham Beaux round out the luxurious finishes of this grand kitchen.

Four bedrooms and three full baths, an office, as well as full laundry make this a truly quintessential upper east side home. With a north exposure facing treetops and ornate townhouses, the extravagant and private primary suite with en-suite bath also boasts custom shelving, four deep closets, and brilliant windows. The second and third bedrooms are accessed from the gallery, are windowed and generously sized, boasting Jonathan Adler lighting with southern exposures. The sweeping second bedroom can easily be a grand guest suite replete with light, space, and an en-suite bath. The third bedroom and stunning third bath flow from the gallery hall.

Working from home successfully and privately is an easy transition in the perfectly appointed office nestled nearby the living room.

With such abundant space one is provided many interior design options. A cheerful corner family room or fourth bedroom is both welcoming and perfect for gathering or nestling up to read a favorite novel. If an expansive open kitchen or private formal dining is desired, here we find the perfect opportunity to expand and exercise one?s inner interior designer.

Ideally located, this classic neighborhood provides one access to parks such as Asphalt Green and Carl Shulz, cultural institutions such as The Guggenheim Museum, Gracie Mansion, The Neue Gallery and over twenty-five additional galleries and museums. The neighborhood is home to many fine dining establishments, quaint cafes, and gourmet shopping choices and residents are provided with convenient access to the Second Avenue subway line.

As your favorite melody drifts through the many rooms of this pin drop quiet residence, and sunlight kisses every room, you will understand the allure of 519 East 86th Street and being home will never have felt so right.

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.
