20 East 74th St. #PHB

PENTHOUSE PERFECTION. It could have been a dream or in a movie that you captured an image of the perfect Manhattan penthouse, and here it is for real. Perched at the top of an elegant Upper East Side co-op at 74th and Madison Avenue, just steps from Central Park, this stunning oasis combines pre-war ambiance and high ceilings with chic contemporary styling. Each area of the apartment relates to the others and to the terrace that surrounds them. City skyline views and a mini evergreen forest are a reminder that you can have it all—-a home for all seasons. Outdoor dining in summer— wood burning fireplace for winter. Amidst the glamour are many luxury amenities, custom millwork, abundant and well planned storage, a huge marble bath with a steam shower and Jacuzzi, and a kitchen fit for a gourmet chef—-all in an established coop that welcomes international (and nearby) pied-a-terre buyers. The building, built in 1947, offers full service staffing, a brand new fully equipped gym, laundry facilities, and separate storage. Pets are welcomed!
