About this home
Stunning and rare floor-through two bedroom in an 1862, 25' elevator brownstone, on a leafy and history-rich block across from the Morgan Library, only five blocks from Grand Central.<br>Inside apartment 4FR at 23 East 37th Street, you'll find luxuriously spacious rooms, eleven-foot ceilings, two original fireplaces with marble mantels, and an extraordinary abundance of meticulously restored historic details.<br>Previously two separate apartments, the present owners undertook extensive renovations to create a gracious, inviting and comfortable home - taking care at every step to honor the historic feel, while gently incorporating the essentials for 21st century living.<br>A generous foyer, with its own walk-in closet, welcomes you and sets the tone. The living room is amply scaled, with an original marble fireplace, rich detail, and south-facing windows overlooking 37th Street. If you look across the street, you'll see the oldest section of the Morgan Library, and if you look up - the Empire State Building. You'll never see the heating and AC - but they're tucked away under the windows. The windows even have original wooden shutters that disappear discreetly into the window frames when not in use.<br>The primary bedroom is also generously scaled, with its own marble fireplace - giving off the feel of a top end luxury hotel suite, with a windowed dressing room, a modern bath with top-end Dornbracht fixtures and radiant heated floors - and a washer and dryer. Overlooking rear townhouse gardens, the primary bedroom is pindrop quiet.<br>The kitchen illustrates the best-of-all-worlds approach of the renovation - fine custom cabinetry reflects the historic feel of the place, which concealing a Miele dishwasher and Sub Zero Fridge, and showcasing a Viking range and hood. <br>Off the kitchen is a second full bathroom, also equipped with top-end Dornbracht fixtures. Off the living room is second bedroom with two large closets.<br>Both the block and the building are steeped in history. #23 was one of three large, Italianate brownstones completed between 1860 and 1862 by the builder David Robins, at a time when prominent and wealthy New Yorkers were just beginning to move to Murray Hill. At the time, Central Park wasn't yet fully complete, and the only stretch of Fourth Avenue that had been covered over and renamed Park Avenue was the stretch between 33rd and 40th Street. On the Madison Avenue end of the block is the oldest part of the Morgan Library, dating to 1853, and the Beaux Arts De Lamar Mansion, dating to 1905, now a Consulate. At the Park Avenue end of the block, on a site assembled by J.P Morgan's son Jack, stands the Union League Club.<br>You'll sense this rich history when you approach #23. Outside, it’s an imposing 25’ wide, and five stories high. Inside, there's a restored Otis elevator, a welcome and unexpected convenience in as 19th century townhouse - but the stairway is a gem not to be missed, with beautifully restored banisters and woodwork, and sunlight streaming in from a skylight above. As you ascend, you'll feel like you're stepping back in time.<br>Of course, we cannot understate the extraordinary convenience of the location. Just 5 blocks from Grand Central and One Vanderbilt, less than a mile from the Theater District, and with countless restaurants and other resources within easy reach - in almost any direction - it would be hard to find a better location to enjoy New York.<br>Monthly maintenance for 4FR is $3,268.08, which includes taxes. <br>23 East 37th Street is a coop that allows pied-a-terres. There is a flip tax of 2% paid by the purchaser. Also note that, in addition to the washer and dryer in the unit, all residents of 23 East 37th have access to a washer dryer, plus common storage, in the basement level.<br>Contact us today to arrange a private viewing of this remarkably rare offering.<br>....
