Nestled mid-block on a coveted tree-lined street, 132 East 62nd Street is an elegant 20-foot-wide Italianate brownstone offering the rare opportunity to own a single-family residence that seamlessly marries historic grandeur with modern sophistication. Spanning five stories and 5,129 interior square feet with additional below grade space, the home features an expansive layout of sixteen well-proportioned rooms, thoughtfully designed for both refined entertaining and comfortable daily living.

This bright and airy living room boasts floor to ceiling windows that give way to the sun-drenched, south-facing Zen garden. A tranquil, 32-foot-long retreat, the garden is complete with a contemporary water wall, mature plantings, and custom lighting. The kitchen is outfitted with a La Cornue range and other premium appliances, blending high performance with classic style. Ascend the grand staircase to the Parlor Level, where you will discover soaring, 11' ceilings and a lounge that is flanked by an expansive second living room to the north and a library or formal dining room, which is well suited for use as a home office, to the south. This second living room and the library are both replete with their own wood-burning fireplaces. On the Third Floor, the primary suite features yet another wood-burning fireplace in the grandiose bedroom with garden-facing bay windows. Through a large dressing room with full-width closets on either side, discover the primary, en-suite bathroom that features two separate vanities, a massive soaking tub and spacious shower.

A hydraulic elevator services every level of the home, making it accessible and convenient. The residence is rich in historic character, original architectural details, and tasteful upgrades. Additional comforts and amenities include central air conditioning, a wine cellar, ample storage, and laundry facilities located in the cellar alongside mechanicals. A security system offers added peace of mind.
