About This Property
A Carnegie Hill Pre-War Maisonette with Townhouse Presence
Approximately 1,800 square feet of space with the character of a townhouse and the ease of full-service co-op living. This rare maisonette pairs 11.5-foot ceilings with the polish of one of Carnegie Hill's most distinguished pre-war buildings.
Sitting just above street level, apartment 1F reveals its volume the moment you enter, whether from the East 90th Street entrance or from within the building. The 11.5 ceiling height gives every room a sense of grandeur, while beautifully maintained maple and oak floors add warmth and craftsmanship throughout. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the living space, perfect for quiet winter evenings.
The floor plan is as versatile as it is generous, adapting easily to three or even four bedrooms. The unique space also allows for a true work from home office, by making use of the street entrance. Whatever the need, the possibilities are real. Alternative floor plans and renovation renderings are available, so you can see exactly what this home could become.
About The Paulding
Designed in 1921 by Maynicke & Franke, pioneers of the loft building, The Paulding is a sought-after address with amenities to match its pedigree: a newly designed roof deck, a landscaped garden, a children's playroom, and a full laundry room in the basement. This home also comes with an 8' storage cage at no additional cost. Pets are welcome; in unit washer and dryer permitted; subletting and pied-à-terres are not permitted.
The Neighborhood
Carnegie Hill offers charming, tree-lined streets and an unrivaled concentration of major museums and top-tier schools. Central Park, the 92nd Street Y, and public transportation are all close by, and Whole Foods and Fairway Market are just a few blocks away.
Homes with this combination of volume, flexibility, and location rarely come to market. Photos and floor plans tell only part of the story: this is a space that must be seen in person to appreciate its potential.
