425 East 78 Street   Unit 6G

Penthouse PH 6G retains the bones of fabulous turn of the century prewar architecture and construction with the benefit of having undergone a total renovation. With the provenance of an earlier era, this refined one bedroom 1.5 bathroom duplex home is a masterful combination of both old and new. In prewar tradition, a gracious entrance foyer leads to the open kitchen and dining room area and connects the entryway to the expansive step-down living area. Beautiful variegated hardwood floors predominate throughout the space, further enhanced by lofty ceilings with skylight with the inclined ceiling that goes from 8'3" up to 13 feet in height. Warm northern light streams in from oversized windows, illuminating the living room. Living features a working fireplace also. The bedroom nests atop a long flight of stairs and feature a skylight on the inclined ceiling that reaches 12' 7" in its higher point. The upper level easily accommodates a king-sized bed, a desk, and abundant storage space provided by closets to the main bathroom. There is also a main tiled bathroom with a porcelain sink, vanity, and shower. The kitchen is located on the first level and contains all new stainless steel appliances, pristine cabinetry and mirror backsplash, and a black tile floor. There is also storage below the stairs. The apartment is in mint move-in condition and maintains a certain character from both its prewar individuality and its enclosure in a boutique style building.

This prewar elevator coop was built in 1910 and is desirably located in the center of the Upper Eastside. The building has an intimate feel at only seven stories and 35 units. Amenities include a live-in super, laundry room, and a verdantly landscaped garden for residents. Pets allowed. The coop also permits guarantors, parents buying for children, and pieds-a-terre. The neighborhood is convenient to Central Park and Carl Schurz Park, with smaller parks and playgrounds, established restaurants and cafes, world-class museums, local area shops, and watering holes. Transportation by bus or subway is readily accessible from the major lines.
