An Exceptional Opportunity on East 79th Street
Perfectly positioned between Park and Lexington Avenues in one of Manhattan's most distinguished cooperatives, this rare offering at 120 East 79th Street combines scale, light, and timeless elegance with a prime Upper East Side address.
This sun-filled residence features multiple grand entertaining rooms, two private outdoor spaces, four bedrooms, and four full bathrooms. With four exposures and open city views to the north and south, the home enjoys abundant natural light throughout the day.
A gracious entry hall leads to a magnificent gallery that seamlessly connects the expansive formal living room, dining room, and primary suite. The living and dining rooms are beautifully proportioned for both entertaining and everyday living, and open to a balcony with charming views toward Central Park. The den, currently configured as a secondary living space, leads to a south-facing terrace that basks in sunlight as it clears the surrounding townhouses.
Each of the four bedrooms is generously scaled with its own en-suite bath, ensuring comfort and privacy. The windowed kitchen is smartly appointed with well-designed storage and premium appliances, including a KitchenAid stove, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and Bosch dishwasher. A washer/dryer installation has been previously approved by the cooperative, providing a purchaser the opportunity to do the same with board consent.
Residents of 120 East 79th Street enjoy a coveted white-glove cooperative with a 24-hour attended lobby, live-in resident manager, fitness center, laundry room, bike room, private storage (waitlist), and a serene common garden.
Just moments from Central Park, world-class boutiques along Madison Avenue, and the city's finest cultural institutions, this residence offers the rare combination of prewar grace, grand proportions, modern flexibility, and an unparalleled location-a truly distinguished and unique home.
