NEW TO MARKET! A sprawling and stately Classic 7 beautifully perfected into a regally apportioned 6-room, 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home with a massive double-windowed eat-in kitchen, in a full-service luxury prewar cooperative on a prime Carnegie Hill block. Immaculately renovated, Residence 6B at 47 East 88th Street is a glorious union of prewar scale and charm enhanced with modern conveniences and luxurious finishes.
Enter through a semi-private landing into a large central gallery from which all of the rooms in this expansive home radiate. The entertaining rooms are concentrated in the southwest wing, embellished with herringbone hardwood floors and elegant millwork throughout. A grand and majestic living room looks out West over Madison Avenue, stretching nearly 25 feet and appointed with a wood-burning fireplace with a custom marble mantle flanked by sophisticated built-in shelving and storage and with high beamed ceilings overhead. Directly adjacent, an oversized formal dining room is perfect for those who entertain at scale, enhanced by a built-in buffet offering a suite of custom cabinetry and a marble serving counter and backsplash.
Opposite the living and dining rooms, a massive double-windowed chef's eat-in kitchen sits behind a pair of solid-core pocket doors and faces South. The appliance suite is all top of the line and includes an integrated Subzero refrigerator/freezer with double freezer drawers and icemaker, a 4-burner Viking gas range, a stainless steel Viking microwave and an integrated Miele dishwasher. The countertops and backsplash are statuary marble, and there is an extensive array of custom cabinetry and pantry space to accommodate all storage needs.
Concentrated in the northwest wing, all three bedrooms are grand in size. The primary suite sits at the farthest end of the residence, with warm western exposures and an enormous customized dressing room servicing even the most extensive of wardrobes, elegantly located between the bedroom and bathroom with two solid-core pocket doors at either end. The gracious windowed primary bathroom has been outfitted in neutral marble, featuring a double vanity with extensive storage and a spacious glass-enclosed rain shower stall with built-in storage. There are two additional large ancillary bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite windowed bathroom with bathtub, marble subway-tiled walls and basket-weave marble floors, and both bedrooms have large customized closets. The third full bathroom is conveniently located off of the gallery and serves both the third bedroom and guests, dressed in marble from floor to ceiling and adorned with herringbone marble floors to echo the entertaining spaces.
Additionally, there is through-wall AC throughout, a laundry closet concealing a full-sized washer/dryer and custom shelving has been discreetly tucked away in the bedroom corridor. A private storage unit also transfers with sale.
