Property Details
Description
Welcome to Residence 7H at The Charles House , a meticulously crafted three-bedroom, three-bath home, designed by acclaimed Italian architect Leopoldo Rosati, offering bespoke finishes and purposeful design. Located between Madison and Park Avenues, just moments from Central Park and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this 1,844-square-foot residence is a study in clean lines, refined materials, and quiet elegance. Currently configured as a two-bedroom with a double living room, the layout allows for a seamless conversion back to its original three-bedroom plan. A gracious entry sets the tone, revealing an architectural flow grounded by wenge hardwood floors and custom mahogany millwork. Integrated lighting, gallery-style walls, and extensive built-ins carry throughout, creating a sense of cohesion and clarity. The windowed kitchen faces east and is outfitted with Sub-Zero, Miele, Gaggenau, and Bosch appliances, stone countertops, and a breakfast bar—ideal for daily use or slow mornings at home. All three bathrooms are appointed with Dornbracht and Duravit fixtures; the guest bath features a BainUltra soaking tub. The corner primary suite offers privacy and light, with a dressing corridor, custom closets, and a renovated en suite bath. The second bedroom, also en suite, is set apart from the main living areas and functions well as a guest room, study, or den. Storage is abundant and discreet, including three walk-in closets and custom cabinetry throughout. The Charles House is a full-service condominium offering 24-hour doorman service, a fitness center, on-site laundry, parking, a bike room, private storage, and a landscaped roof terrace with breath-taking views of Central Park. A turnkey home in one of Manhattan’s most architecturally rich and culturally vibrant neighborhoods. - All information provided herein, including but not limited to square footage, taxes, and building details, is deemed reliable but must be independently verified by the buyer. 24-hour notice required for all showings
