Triple Mint Condo on East End Avenue
Located along the elegant and picturesque East End Avenue at the intersection of 80th Street is 20 East End Avenue, a modern and resplendent interpretation of classical pre-war sophistication delivered by renowned architect Robert A.M. Stern. Residence 6A is a sprawling three bedroom, three bathroom plus powder room with soaring 11 foot ceilings, triple exposures, and a triple mint renovation completed by the current owner that enhances the grandeur of living at 20 East End Avenue.
Upon entering the gallery you are led into the heart of the home, the expansive 30' open living/dining room with views overlooking quiet East End Avenue and views of the East River. The 11 foot ceilings, complemented by base and crown moldings, create an extensive showroom for any burgeoning or serious art collector. Dark stained white Appalachian herringbone oak floors graciously adorn all the public spaces. Grand in proportion and design, this entertaining space is adjacent to the masterful chef's kitchen fitted with custom shaker inspired millwork cabinetry, natural Brazilian quartzite countertops, Lefroy Brooks hardware and Gaggenau appliances, and center island perfectly fit for casual dining.
Retire to your own private quarters in one of the three ensuite bedrooms. The primary bedroom receives the same dazzling eastern sunlight as the neighboring dramatic entertaining space and still captures that partial river view. This luxurious oasis serves as a quiet reprieve with custom dressing room and exquisitely appointed five fixture bath. The ensuite Caldia Classico marble bathroom is complete with a custom designed double sink vanity, cast iron Lefroy Brooks soaking tub, separate spa shower and water closet as well as Wi Fi enabled heated flooring. The second and third bedrooms are located opposite one another. The former is located just off of the gallery with sun-kissed northern exposure, a full ensuite bath, and a sizeable walk-in closet while the third bedroom is located opposite the primary bedroom and includes western exposure, custom built-ins, French door closet, and full ensuite bath.
Additional features of this one-of-a-kind residence include integrated audio system throughout every room, Lutron controlled light switches, motorized roller window shades, and California closet systems installed in the foyer and secondary bedrooms. Extensive custom millwork, replacement of sponsor finishes and materials, and intuitive state of the art technology have also been included in the renovation.
Nestled on the corner of 80th Street and East End Avenue, 20 East End Avenue is the preeminent condominium on East End Avenue with discreet professional staff and unparalleled amenities. Residents enjoy five star hotel-style attention with a 24 hour doorman concierge, fitness center and spa, graciously-appointed library and bar, a wine cellar replete with temperature and humidity controlled wine storage and a beautiful tasting room with roundtable accompanied by a fireplace to enjoy every glass, plus, a gated port cochere with an outdoor fountain. This list is by no means exhaustive as 20 East End Avenue has many wonderful amenities that were designed to be those which you would find in a personal mansion.
East End Avenue is an alluringly peaceful enclave with promises of a neighborhood feel that is often lost in an urban environment. It rests a short distance from the charming East River promenade, lush Carl Schurz Park, an abundance of boutique shopping, gourmet food stores, as well as Gristedes and D'Agostino supermarkets. The crosstown bus is one block away at 79th and York and the Q train stops at 86th Street and 2nd Avenue. Pets are welcome.
