About This Home

Bright Top-Floor Upper East Side Residence

Located on the top floor with northern, southern, and eastern exposures, this rare 7-room perfectly renovated combination apartment offers exceptional light, city views, and high ceilings over 10 feet.

An entry gallery opens to a large sunlit living room featuring a working wood-burning fireplace and herringbone hardwood floors. The layout includes a formal dining room (convertible to a 4th bedroom), a separate library, a dedicated home office, and an eat-in chef's kitchen with Taj Mahal quartzite counters, backsplash, and custom dining table. The home offers three bedrooms-including a primary suite with an en-suite bath. The two additional bedrooms, an additional full bath and an elegant powder room complete this home.

Modern conveniences include multi-zoned central air, an in-unit washer/dryer, and substantial custom closet space through-out.

Designed by Schwartz & Gross and completed in 1916, 156 East 79th Street is a distinguished, full-service cooperative with a 24-hour doorman and resident superintendent. Situated on the Upper East Side near Central Park, fine dining, museums, and transportation.

The building permits up to 60% financing, is pet-friendly, and offers a fitness facility, laundry room, private storage, and bicycle storage.
