The Residence:

This sprawling 4-bedroom, 3-bath Carnegie Hill prewar coop was carved from the two best lines in the building to give its owners a sweeping cityscape with river views. The sunken living room has 9.6 ft. ceilings and opens into an expansive formal dining room offering vistas to east and south. Watch the sunrise from your huge country kitchen, a professional cook's dream, featuring custom white oak cabinetry, sturdy butcher-block surfaces, a Garland range with 6-burner stovetop and overhead salamander, a separate wall-mounted oven/rotisserie, dishwasher, oversized refrigerator, and beverage cooler. There are two ample master bedroom suites, one with an adjacent private office, or possible dressing room, two more large bedrooms with rooftop views to the north, large entrance galleries for each wing of the apartment, three full baths, spacious closets everywhere, a fully equipped laundry room, hardwood floors, through-wall air conditioning, and beamed ceilings. A suburban ranch house in the sky, this gem is a year-round haven of comfort and relaxation for your family and guests.

The Building:

A hidden architectural treasure 152 was built in 1937 across East 94th Street from the historic row houses of Hellgate Hill by Boak & Paris Architects. Former apprentices to Emery "The Majestic" Roth, they imagined a unique fusion of Art Deco and Arte Moderne styles to create a handful of the most inventive and distinctive period buildings in New York City. Interpretive classicism is evident throughout the thirteen-story structure. Its red brick facade features decorative work on window lintels, eleventh-floor blind arches, and terracotta ornaments. Greek key motifs adorn the basement window grilles and the recessed, brass-framed sconces that illuminate the building's sidewalk near the limestone entryway. The interior lobby and hallways feature black & white and tan terrazzo floors. "152" is a fully staffed, pet-friendly cooperative with laundry facilities, storage, and a bike room. The heating plant has new hybrid boiler, and the DoB has classified the building as SAFE for the LL11 7th Cycle. Green rules and LEED standards are practiced in all common areas. Your new apartment is located a short distance to Central Park, Museum Mile, private and public schools, the 92nd Street Y, Asphalt Green, easy downtown/cross-town transportation, on- and off-street parking, with convenient access to the FDR Drive.
