Listing Notes

Private NYC Penthouse Oasis for the Terrace Aficionado Arriving just in time for summer, this exceptional penthouse presents a rare opportunity for the discerning collector of New York real estate. Perched atop 235 East 73rd Street in the storied Eastgate enclave - designed by Emory Roth and developed by Bing & Bing - the residence offers approximately 2, 200 square feet of refined interiors and an unheard of 1, 500 square feet of private, landscaped terraces. A private elevator landing opens to an elegant foyer, leading to a grand living room with 13-foot (3.9 m) ceilings, triple exposures, a wood-burning fireplace, and classic white oak French parquet floors. A windowed wet bar seamlessly connects to expansive terraces, creating a natural flow for elevated indoor-outdoor entertaining against the Manhattan skyline. A sculptural Art Deco staircase leads to the private level, where 12-foot ceilings, crown moldings, and herringbone floors frame a more tranquil setting. Each room opens to a wraparound planted terrace, offering rare light, air, and serenity. The chef's kitchen - equipped with premium appliances, dual sinks, wine storage, and a black marble peninsula - flows into a bright dining area with French doors to the outdoors. A butler's pantry with separate service entrance and in-unit washer/dryer adds convenience. The primary suite is a quiet retreat with terrace access, a custom walk-in closet, and a windowed en-suite bath with soaking tub and bidet. A spacious second bedroom features two walk-in closets and its own en-suite bath. Located on a prime, tree-lined Upper East Side block, the building offers full-service amenities including a doorman, fitness center, storage (waitlist), laundry, and landscaped courtyard. Pet-friendly, pied--terre ownership permitted, subletting allowed after two years with board approval, and financing up to 75%. A sophisticated Penthouse blended with architectural pedigree, scale, and seamless indoor-outdoor living - crafted for those who value rarity and design.
