About This Property
High atop the tower of Manhattan’s iconic Carlyle Hotel, a splendid 2 bedroom aerie boasts captivating views of Central Park and the New York City skyline. The expansive corner Living Room enjoys panoramic Central Park views and spectacular sunsets from a rare floor-to-ceiling picture window. Apartment 2401 is one of the last remaining privately-held tower apartments with a picture window overlooking Central Park. This light-flooded room features dual western and northern exposures, superb scale and herringbone parquet floors. Well-suited for either grand or intimate entertaining, this spacious reception room adjoins a windowed Kitchen. The private quarters include a large corner Primary Bedroom with direct park views and a windowed Primary Bathroom. The second Bedroom enjoys dramatic southern views over the park and city skyline and an en-suite bathroom. An outside Staff Room located on the 4th floor completes this special home. Building management advises that as a Tax Class 4 residence, all private cooperative residences within The Carlyle Hotel are exempt from the pied-a-terre tax, which applies to Tax Classes 1 and 2.
High above the city, Apartment 2401 is an oasis of civility in the heart of the Upper East Side. Together with the elegant facilities, security of a fine hotel and privacy of cooperative apartment ownership, owners at the Carlyle are afforded an inimitable homelike atmosphere. Incomparable service is provided by a superb Management Team and a dedicated Concierge Staff. Housekeeping Service and utilities are included in the monthly maintenance. Amenities include a state-of-the-art Fitness Center and Valmont Spa, the Yves Durif Salon, Valet and Laundry services, and the availability of an on-site Garage. Residents may choose from fine dining at Dowling’s at the Carlyle, or lighter fare at the Gallery, where legendary designer Renzo Mongiardino took his inspiration from the Topkapi Palace. The lively, artistic energy at Bemelman's Bar and Cafe Carlyle is emblematic of the hotel’s hip and erudite style.
None of Manhattan’s prestigious hotels captures the sophisticated essence of the city like the Carlyle. It is imbued with a timeless New York soul, an old world patina with an incalculable human factor, with personal touches and a family ambiance. Favored by presidents and princesses, rock stars and royalty, the hotel is long a second home to luminaries in the visual and performing arts, sports, fashion and finance. As noted in the 2019 documentary film, “Always at the Carlyle” this treasure of New York fulfills the founder’s singular vision of a cosmopolitan hotel, at once friendly, artistic and playfully sophisticated. “The most glamorous hotel in the world.” Pets are welcome. Corporate and trust ownership are permitted.
Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Sothebys International Realty.
The living room's floor-to-ceiling picture window looks out over Central Park, and it's one of the few remaining tower apartments in the building with one. The room faces west and north, so it gets light from two directions. On a summer day, the west exposure can bring direct sun from about 1:11 PM to 8:07 PM, roughly seven hours, though nearby buildings can block it.
The living room is large enough for both formal and everyday use, and it adjoins a windowed kitchen with an eat-in area and a dishwasher. The parquet floors run through the main rooms. The second bedroom has southern views over the park and skyline and its own en-suite bathroom, which makes it a useful setup for a guest or a home office. The primary bedroom sits in a corner with direct park views and has a windowed primary bathroom. Corner rooms often get more exposure and a more varied outlook, though how much light and view you get depends on the orientation and what surrounds the building.
The building has a concierge, an elevator, garage parking, laundry, a gym and a health club. Housekeeping service and utilities are included in the monthly maintenance, which is worth factoring into your budget. Central air is in the apartment, and the listing allows washer and dryer units. Cats and dogs are allowed. The elevator matters for daily life, especially for groceries and moving furniture.
Central Park is about four minutes away on foot, and the 77 St station on the 6 line is about the same. D'Agostino is about four minutes away, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art is about nine minutes on foot. Buyers in a co-op should expect the board to review finances as part of the purchase, so it's worth raising that with your advisor early.
