Step off the semi-private elevator and into a world of elegance, starting with a limestone gallery that welcomes you with open arms and a grand staircase leading to the 13th floor. The living room, a magnificent 27’ x 27’ square, boasts 18-foot ceilings and floods with natural light from two towering 12-foot casement windows. Crown molding and columns enhance the room’s symmetry, making this double-height space one of the most elegant you’ll find on the market today.
Just off the living room, you’ll discover a round dining room adorned with rich fabric panels and recessed dome lighting, perfect for intimate dinners. Hidden just behind one of those panels, you’ll find a butler’s pantry and a spacious, windowed kitchen—ideal for hosting unforgettable gatherings.
Ascend to the 13th-floor bedrooms via the limestone staircase or the private elevator that opens right into the upper floor gallery. Here, a beautifully paneled den with pocket doors and a cozy fireplace becomes your perfect retreat. Walk down the corridor to the bedrooms and you’ll find the expansive primary suite, complete with ample closets and a sunny southern exposure. The ensuite bathroom pampers with a large soaking tub and steam shower. Another bedroom also features an ensuite shower, while the home office includes its own small bathroom with a shower and easy access to the laundry room.
Adding to the charm, the apartment features three stunning marble fireplaces, each with a gas line to a coal brazier, blending old-world charm with modern convenience.
Built in 1929, 322 East 57th Street is a neo-classical limestone gem designed by the renowned architect Harry M. Clauson of Caughey & Evans. The building offers storage space, welcomes pets and pieds-à-terre, allows up to 50% financing, and has a 3% flip tax to be covered by the purchaser. It’s a home that combines history, luxury, and modern living in perfect harmony.
