Description

Absolutely stunning PRE-WAR apartment in PRE-WAR building, move in condition, or bring your architect to tailor it to your needs! Timeless elegance on the Upper East Side! 55 East 76th Street is a landmarked cooperative celebrated for its architectural exterior and magnificent interior design, also known as "French Flats". Built in 1883 and designed by the eminent architect Frederick T. Camp, this apartment has beautifully preserved details, including parquet floors, fireplace mantels, window shutters, and Eastlake design moldings, making them exceedingly rare.

This is a gracious 4th floor apartment in an elevator building. Enter into the living room featuring soaring ceilings and north-facing windows, complemented by a lovely fireplace. The apartment entry features a renovation and design by Nate Berkus, who designed and decorated the entrance den.

This exquisite layout includes 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, (renovated kitchen and renovated bathroom), and plus a versatile home office/den/dining area. Residents also enjoy access to a laundry and private storage area, with the added convenience of a part-time doorman 7 days a week, PLUS full time virtual assistant and a full time super on duty seven days a week. The location between Madison and Park Avenues, adjacent to the famous Carlyle Hotel, near Central Park, upscale shopping, and gallery browsing on Madison Avenue, makes it an ideal residence in the "Museum Mile of NYC".
