Life Is Good.

Next find an impressive living room with oversized windows, 9.5-foot ceilings and architectural moldings. (The room is large enough that a grand piano is hardly noticed.) Adjacent to the living room is a sun-filled dining room that can seat 12 for dinner. The bright and beautiful kitchen has been beautifully renovated and hosts a charming balcony. The baronial primary bedroom was originally two rooms and has two full bathrooms and oversized closet storage. There is plenty of room in this space for both a sitting area and an office area. A separate, secondary bedroom wing three separate bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bath and open views to the south and west.With only two apartments per floor and a garage within the building, The Empire offers the good life. The building also hosts a large private garden with grills and outdoor seating, a windowed children's playroom, a sprawling windowed gym, conference room and business center, and a party room/lounge with a catering kitchen. Where else on the Upper East Side can one get a move-in condition condominium apartment with high ceilings, views, and a gracious layout for under $1,900/foot? Please call today for a private appointment.
