Description
The ultimate in privacy and luxury awaits you as you enter this expansive terraced three-bedroom, three-bathroom sun-drenched penthouse duplex. The architecturally significant home is wrapped in not one, but two incredible terraces and the stunning City views surround the home no matter the time of day or season of the year.
One enters the home from your very own private landing. The sprawling upper floor encompasses the main living space of the apartment; the large living room boasts a wood-burning fireplace, high beamed ceilings, and two entrances to the south facing terrace. The formal dining room with its own wood-burning fireplace sits on the opposite side of the home and has entrance to the enormous northern facing terrace: the perfect landscape for dining al fresco, entertaining on a grand scale, creating a garden paradise, or simply enjoying a morning cup of coffee or evening stargazing. The adjacent eat-in windowed chef's kitchen is replete with stainless steel counter tops, loads of cabinets, appliances by Samsung and Subzero, and a stacked Frigidaire washer/dryer.
The primary bedroom suite is tucked away in its own wing and has two large custom-fitted closets and a sumptuous five-piece marble bath with oversized jacuzzi tub. Completing the upper floor is an additional den or library.
The lower-level of the home comprises two sizable guest rooms and a large jack-and-jill designer bathroom. Both bedrooms are sun-flooded from southern exposures and have wonderful closet space. Additionally, there is a separate wine closet and an entrance to the lower bedroom wing from the elevator landing.
Finished hardwood floors throughout, thru-wall AC, several custom closets including an oversized walk-in, tasteful built-ins, and unique skylights throughout complete this rare offering.
Built in 1929 and converted to cooperative in 1985, 225 East 79th Street is an elegant full service prewar cooperative with 17 stories and 80 units. The services include a live-in Resident Manager, full-time door staff, and both bike and private storage rooms. Pied a terres and pets permitted.
Situated in the heart of the Upper East Side with easy access to Central Park, the finest dining and shopping, museums, and all forms of transportation, this ultra glamorous penthouse offers its new owner the finest of both interior and exterior living which only a trophy property can deliver.
Please note there are two capital assessments totaling $1,876.47 until May 2027

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have my two kids here, one has special needs and it has been terrific year after year. My child w special needs is reading and doing math above grade level. There is so much support here from teachers and staff. The focus on social emotional learning is genius. The parents are a special group of inclusive and warm folks who are very dedicated to supporting all the students. It is a real community and a really unique school.Parent Review3mo ago - Jhs 167 Robert F Wagner

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is absolutely horrible there are fights everyday and no one gets suspended but people get suspended for skipping afterschool that is optional and teachers don’t care about the students, the education sucks the environment sucks and there is so much harassment and bullying and the dean doesn’t do anything to prevent it honestly the worst decision of my life putting this school on my list. Also if your new there gonna try to make it all fun but once you reach 7th grade its hell.Student Review3mo ago - Eleanor Roosevelt High School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating Averagemy daughter was hospitalized after being bullied in this school. Support: non existent. Wasting of potential. I would rename it Karen Roosevelt. So much for meritocracy and public education. Shame on you all.Parent Review11mo ago
