Sophisticated architectural details and design embellishments abound in this magnificent, Triple mint condition, 11 into 9-room residence.

You must see this apartment to appreciate it.

120 East End Avenue is one of the finest, white glove, full service cooperative buildings in New York. Developed in 1931 by Vincent Astor and designed by Charles Platt, this impeccably discreet apartment house faces Carl Schurz Park and the East River. So pleased was Vincent Astor with this building that he made his home here for 19 years. It was to this house that he brought his bride, Brooke upon their marriage. An unusual but gracious touch was the creation of gardens to the west and north of the building that still exist. Additional amenities include a fitness center, bike room and individual storage units with Mosler doors.
