Property Description
Sophisticated yet welcoming, Residence #20BCH at 201 East 79th Street is a meticulously renovated five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom home in the heart of the Upper East Side. Venetian plaster walls, rich walnut flooring, and custom millwork create warmth and character, while oversized windows flood the interiors with natural light and frame open city views. Designed with entertaining in mind, the seamless layout flows from a sun-splashed living room to an expansive eat-in kitchen featuring top-of-the-line Miele and Thermador appliances, a wine refrigerator, quartzite countertops, Corian cabinetry, a butler's pantry, and a discreetly tucked-away home office. An adjacent dining area offers the perfect balance of intimacy and scale for gatherings. Each secondary bedroom is thoughtfully outfitted with built-in desks, custom closets, and oversized windows with western exposure. The fifth bedroom has been reimagined as a spacious family room, offering flexibility for evolving needs. The serene primary suite is a private retreat with a dedicated office or dressing area and a luxurious en-suite bath with dual vanities and refined finishes. Additional comforts include individually controlled thermostats, new windows, electric shades, and two private storage sheds. Beyond the residence, 201 East 79th Street has undergone a dramatic transformation. Its original glazed brick facade was replaced with a striking, energy-efficient porcelain rainscreen system, supported by upgraded insulation, waterproofing, and structural enhancements-ensuring beauty, durability, and long-term value. This full-service, pet-friendly cooperative offers a 24-hour doorman, concierge, resident manager, package room, storage and bike rooms, shared laundry, and an on-site garage. Perfectly situated near Central Park, Museum Mile, and the city's finest dining and shopping, #20BCH presents a rare opportunity to enjoy both elevated living and an exceptional location.
