155 E 79Th St

A boutique condominium completed in 2016 on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, this 14-story building contains a very small collection of large multi-level residences designed with townhouse-like layouts. Architecturally refined interiors reflect the hand of Pembrooke & Ives in collaboration with BKSK, featuring limestone and brick façades, ornamental metalwork and a carefully detailed wood-paneled lobby. Residences are expansive four-bedroom duplexes that commonly include private elevator landings, tall ceilings (around ten feet), formal entrance galleries, separate dining rooms, and eat-in kitchens finished with stone islands and high-end Miele and Gaggenau appliances. Many homes incorporate custom millwork, stone and onyx bathrooms, wood-burning fireplaces, curved staircases, automated lighting and shades, and private terraces or Juliet balconies. Common building amenities are full-time 24-hour doorman service, a resident manager, a compact fitness room, bicycle storage and private storage rooms for each apartment. Parking is not listed onsite; pet policies are determined by condominium bylaw. The building’s scale, finish level and proximity to Central Park, cultural institutions, shopping and transit create an Upper East Side residential experience that blends townhouse spatial organization with full-service condominium conveniences.
