10 East 68th Street, Apt 4-5 is a gorgeous, mint condition duplex located on the Upper East Side's exclusive Gold Coast. This two-bedroom, two and a half bathroom, 1,450 square foot limestone mansion has been renovated with high-end modern finishes while still keeping its rich pre-war detail. Featuring hardwood floors throughout, soaring 10'4" ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, in-unit washer dryer, and amazing south-facing light.
Upon entering through the keyed semi-private elevator, you are welcomed into an elegant south-facing living and dining room that features three oversized windows, custom built-ins, and a powder room. The newly designed chef's kitchen has granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and top of the line appliances including a 5-burner, vented cooktop from Gaggeneau, a Liebherr refrigerator, and Subzero wine fridge.
The upper level is where you will find the two south facing bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a Miele washer and dryer. The luxurious master bedroom contains a spa-like en suite bath with marble walls, mosaic marble floors, a deep soaking marble tub, a custom double-sink vanity, and a large glass-enclosed shower with a rain showerhead. The master also features a large dressing area with fully out-fitted closets and custom built-ins. The second bedroom has custom built-ins and storage space. Just outside is a gallery area, an additional large walk-in closet, and a secondary renovated marble bathroom.
Additional features of this immaculate home include a built in speaker system, video intercom security system, and an ample amount of storage and closet space throughout. Apartment 4-5 benefits from partial ownership of the ground floor commercial space and receives $5,000 a year, which helps offset maintenance charges.
Located on a beautiful tree-lined street just half a block from Central Park and high-end fashion boutiques along New York City's famous Madison Avenue, this building is in a prime location. Originally built in 1882, this Lamb and Wheeler Mansion is an intimate 5-story, 4-unit cooperative. The cooperative allows pied a terre use, pets with board approval, 50% financing, and no flip tax.
