About this House

A rare opportunity awaits at this elegant Madison Avenue residence, ideally positioned at the coveted crossroads of 79th Street.

Arriving via a semi-private landing, the home opens to a gracious 35-foot gallery adorned with barrel-vaulted ceilings and refined cove lighting-an impressive introduction to the space. Beyond, a generously proportioned living room is bathed in natural southern light and anchored by a beautiful gas fireplace.

The home's organic flow continues into a grand formal dining room, distinguished by its own unique decorative fireplace-perfect for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings.

The newly renovated kitchen suite is thoughtfully designed with rich walnut cabinetry, extending seamlessly into a separate butler's pantry and an inviting breakfast room. Outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances-including two Wolf ovens, a five-burner Wolf cooktop, a Miele refrigerator, and a wine refrigerator-the space combines function with sophistication. Storage throughout the home is abundant.

This classic residence offers three spacious bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, along with oversized new windows, soaring 10'3" ceilings, and central air conditioning for modern comfort.

Located at 39 East 79th Street, this full service building offers a full-time doorman, live-in superintendent, private storage, and remarkably low maintenance charges. Pets are welcome.
