20 EAST END AVENUE, 16A, UPPER EAST SIDE, MANHATTAN EAST 80 STREET and EAST 81 STREET Renowned Architect, Robert A.M. Stern's, 20 East End Avenue presents an elegance and attention to detail from a bygone era, without any compromise to modern comforts. In 2019, 20 East End Avenue won the Stanford White Award for Excellence in Architecture. Located on the northwest corner of 80th Street and East End Avenue in Manhattan's Upper East Side, the full-service condominium features a landscaped gated motor court, 24-hour concierge, library with a fireplace and book collection curated by Stern himself, billiards and poker room with a bar, arcade, temperature and humidity-controlled wine cellar with private dining room, fitness center with boxing and yoga studios, spa suite, and bicycle storage. Situated within the residential enclave, East End Avenue, the location embodies the best of the Upper East Side and the convenience of easy access in and out of the city. The neighborhood has the feel of a suburb within a city, just steps away from a 15-acre river side park and the East River Promenade. Residence 16A draws inspiration from the grand prewar apartment houses of the 1920s, including walnut-stained white Appalachian solid oak herringbone floors, custom moldings and casings, oversized sound attenuated windows, and custom-built closets throughout. This residence is not one to be missed, a special home seamlessly incorporating modern finishes with prewar proportions. Fully automated by Control4, including built-in audio visual, HVAC, blackout and solar window treatments and lighting controls. Controlled by smartphone or wall mounted panels in every room. The 3,088 SF corner residence features three ensuite bedrooms, additional powder room, Chef's Kitchen, formal living room and separate dining room, along with sweeping East River and city views. The entrance to this immaculate residence features private elevator and service entry directly into the home's Grand Foyer. Straight ahead is the formal gallery leading into the expansive Living Room with oversized East River facing bay windows and 11-foot ceilings. The elegant Dining Room and Chef's Kitchen are adjacent, delivering a myriad of entertainment possibilities and equally impressive views of the water and beyond. The Stern-designed custom kitchen boasts shaker inspired cabinetry, natural Brazilian quartzite countertops, Lefroy Brooks hardware from London and a full suite of Gaggenau's 400 series appliances. A powder room is situated off the gallery and is fitted with Grigio Carnico marble vanity and floors, Toto water closet and Lefroy Brooks hardware. The residence also features a Miele washer and dryer. The Primary Bedroom suite serves as a quiet reprieve with North and East exposures and two walk-in closets. The ensuite windowed primary bathroom is complete with a custom designed double sink vanity with polished nickel hardware, separate make-up table, large shower, and water closet as well as a programmable radiant floor heating system. The two additional bedrooms also contain ensuite bathrooms. No detail is overlooked in this beautiful home.
