Asking $6,750,000, this duplex penthouse co-op atop 53 East 66th Street has been renovated where it counts, but it’s as classic an uptown Manhattan residence as it gets, a block from Central Park. Nearly 3,000 square feet of interior space on two floors is wrapped by 1,000 square feet of private terrace on the top floor.
Arrive via a large entry gallery. This gracious foyer is punctuated by a curving staircase ascending to the rooms above.
The extra-long main living room features a gas fireplace. A sleek, efficient galley kitchen fitted with top-of-the-line appliances is complemented by a breakfast room with custom built-in bench seating. A dining room lies just past the living room for more formal dining–or more guests.
The primary suite is on this main level; this elegant chamber includes a separate study with a powder room, a large walk-in closet and a bright, renovated en-suite bath. Also on this floor is a staff room with a full bath and a washer/dryer.
Up the winding stairway is a large den with a gas fireplace. To bring the entertaining experience upstairs and outdoors, French doors open from this room onto the home’s spacious, private wraparound terrace.
Also on this floor are two more bedrooms and two baths. If you need even more space, you’re lucky: A large storage unit with a commercial-size washer and dryer is included in the sale. Built in 1924, this well-respected Upper East Side co-op building offers a 24-hour door attendant, a gym, a resident manager, and a live-in super.
