Elegant High-Floor Residence at The Gatsby — Timeless Prewar Sophistication One Block from Central Park

Discover this exquisite and rarely available high-floor residence at The Gatsby, a beautifully restored full-service prewar condominium ideally located just one block from Central Park.

This three-bedroom, three-bathroom home offers unobstructed city views and showcases the refined architectural craftsmanship of its era — featuring 9-foot beamed ceilings, herringbone hardwood floors, and classic moldings that reflect the timeless character of Carnegie Hill.

Upon entering, a gracious foyer opens to an elegant living room with sweeping city vistas, seamlessly connected to a formal dining room—both generously proportioned and flooded with natural light, creating an ideal setting for grand entertaining or comfortable everyday living.

The windowed eat-in kitchen is a chef’s dream, outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances including a six-burner Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and Miele dishwasher. Granite countertops, ample cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and custom banquette seating complete this warm and functional space.

A private corridor leads to the home’s bedroom wing, featuring three spacious bedrooms and three full bathrooms. The corner primary suite enjoys double exposures with views of Central Park and the iconic Russian Orthodox Cathedral domes. Its newly renovated ensuite windowed bath exudes quiet luxury, complemented by a walk-in closet and elegant built-ins. The additional bedrooms are sunlit, well-proportioned, and offer open city views.

Thoughtfully renovated throughout, this residence blends modern comfort with classic prewar elegance, including the convenience of an in-unit washer/dryer.

Built in 1924, The Gatsby is one of Carnegie Hill’s most distinguished addresses, offering 24-hour doorman service, a live-in superintendent, fitness center, bike room, central laundry, private storage, and pet-friendly policies. Perfectly positioned near Central Park, fine dining, boutique shopping, and top cultural institutions, it embodies Upper East Side living at its finest.

A $244 monthly assessment is in place through December 2025. Listed taxes reflect the primary residence abatement.
