The primary suite occupies the rear of the third floor and offers generous closet space and a large en-suite bathroom with a soaking tub. A charming second bedroom at the front of the floor, currently well suited as a home office, enjoys its own en-suite bathroom.The top floor features two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, excellent natural light, a washer and dryer, and an oversized landing with direct stair access to the roof. The formal staircase continues upward, offering the potential to create a private roof deck.Additional highlights include central air conditioning, extensive storage throughout, a large open cellar, and additional air rights for potential development.Ideally located on a quiet, tree-lined Upper East Side block, the residence is moments from Carl Schurz Park, the East River Promenade, Asphalt Green, and Gracie Mansion.
