If ever was the time to jump on a luxury home at The Charles in Manhattan’s Upper East Side, now is it because there are only five left. With 27 residences that span 31 stories, the condominium stands out against the skyline thanks to its dramatic façade that tapers at the base. Every unit in the building has a private elevator landing and over 3,000 square feet of living space—which includes Bianco Dolomiti marble spa baths, super high ceilings with floor-to-ceiling windows, and large eat-in kitchens that include Sub-Zero and Miele appliances.
Designed by Ismael Leyva Architects, the available four-bedroom/bathroom full-floor homes range in price from $6.5-$9.8 million. The main living room in each features custom-made sliding “pocket” doors (which work to bring more room in to a space by disappearing into the wall) and radiant heated white oak floors. The large kitchen has center islands, Corian counters, wine storage and an adjacent laundry room, while the master bedroom has its own sitting area and a master bathroom with a waterfall bathtub and sink.
Residents have access to The Charles’ 1,000-square-foot fitness center and game room, as well as plenty of private storage space. The prime location between the East River and Central Park also means that there are tons of shopping opportunities nearby, as well as Museum Mile and plenty of gourmet restaurants.
