Classic -Timeless-Grandeur
This full floor architectural masterpiece was originally built in 1924 by renowned architects Rouse and Goldstone as 13 rooms with 5 bedrooms. The current configuration consists of 11 rooms, 5 bedrooms, library, formal dining room, 4 baths, a massive corner eat-in kitchen, laundry, and maid’s room. From the 14th floor, natural light bathes every room through oversized windows. An elegant central gallery leads to the west facing living room which has a beautiful wood burning fireplace serving as the focal point of this impressive space. The living room graciously connects to both the dining room and library creating a gracious flow for entertaining. The sun-flooded kitchen has eastern and northern exposures and enchanting views of the steeple of All Soul’s Church. The bedrooms are private from the public rooms. The corner master faces south and west with unobstructed views to Midtown and has a wood burning fireplace and a windowed en suite bath and ample closets. Two additional oversized bedrooms also face south with fantastic southern views and share a windowed bath. The fourth bedroom has open views to the north and shares a bath with the fifth bedroom. The current owners have a full-set of architectural plans that were approved by the building and the NYC DOB. The building does NOT have summer work rules. Located on the corner of East 79th Street and Lexington Avenue, 151 East 79 Street has a very attractive canopied entrance, decorative limestone columns and handsome wrought-iron doors and low maintenance charges. At the heart of the Upper East Side, public transportation, shopping, an array of wonderful restaurant, schools, and cultural pursuits are only minutes away. If you are searching for a finest prewar, 5 bedroom home on the Upper East Side, this is it.
