Earlier today, a combination unit at 27 East 79th Street was registered into contract for $16.65 million. The overall spread, measuring 4,445 ft² in size, plus an additional 676 ft² of outdoor area, combines a townhouse unit with a floor-through simplex directly above. While a floor plan is not readily available, the home will stretch three floors and accommodate seven bedrooms, seven baths, and a powder room.
The deal accounts for two of just eight residences offered within the elegant condominium project steered by Adellco and designed by the Parisian firm Cabinet Alberto Pinto. Situated on the Upper East Side's coveted Gold Coast, the building is steps from Central Park and across from the landmarked mansions of the historic Cook Block. The building will rise 15 floors and flaunt a sumptuous limestone facade accented with iron grillwork.

According to the listings, three other homes are listed in-contract. Their asking prices ranged from $5.45 million for the full fifth floor to $12 million for a three-bedroom duplex on the 11th and 12th floors. Currently, the duplex seventh and eighth-floor spread is the only home on the market. It is a 5-bed, 5-bath priced at $11.75 million.
Every residence has direct elevator entry, assuring privacy and discretion, custom moldings, ceiling cornices, and white oak parquet de Versailles flooring. European kitchens have custom cabinetry designed by Pinto, Cremo Delicto marble countertops and backsplash, and appliances by La Cornue, Miele, and Sub-Zero. All baths including powder rooms feature marble slab and tiling, polished nickel fixtures, and custom cabinetry and vanities.
According to our research tracking signed contracts, the $16.85 million deal is the 42nd most expensive listing price signed into contract so far in 2018. See the full table below.
