This impossibly chic limestone mansion apartment offers a seamless blend of old-world elegance and modern luxury. Spanning an impressive 22' 6 in width, this move-in ready one (convertible two) bedroom home boasts ceilings exceeding 10 feet, enhancing the grand sense of scale and light throughout the approximately 1800 square foot property. Apartment 4 is accessed via a key-locked elevator that opens directly to a sizeable entry foyer. On the north side of the apartment is the expansive living room featuring oversized, tilt and turn windows. These windows bathe the space in natural light and provide a serene view of the architecturally significant buildings that line East 68th street. While a Poliform bookshelf currently divides this space into a more formal living area and a separate office space, this grand room can accommodate a myriad of different seating and living arrangements. There is a working fireplace, thru-wall AC, Carlisle wide plank floors, and built-in speakers for Sonos hook-up throughout the apartment. The open kitchen is equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine fridge, as well as Wolf stove and oven. Custom cabinetry and sleek countertops complement the high-end finishes, making it ideal for both everyday living and seamless entertaining. A large pantry closet adds additional storage space and houses the vented Bosch washer and dryer. The oversized bedroom suite is on the south side of the apartment and is a true sanctuary. It offers generous proportions, south-facing views, additional fireplace, and motorized shades. The luxurious en-suite bathroom features a spa shower, dual sinks with Hansgrohe fixtures, a Waterworks soaking tub, and heated floors. A Poliform closet system creates a full dressing area with additional large closet. Shareholders in similar apartments have also created two spacious bedrooms out of this space. An additional full bathroom with Waterworks fixtures completes the apartment along with a hallway lined with closets. This residence presents a unique opportunity to experience refined living in a distinguished limestone mansion setting. 6-8 East 68th Street is a stunning cooperative that benefits from 24-hour live feed security (via app) and easy access to Central Park and the array of high-end boutiques that Madison Avenue has to offer. Built in 1882 by Lamb & Wheeler, the building underwent a full renovation in 1919 by Harry Allen Jacobs in conjunction with Otto Kahn. Pied-e-terres and pets permitted with board approval.
