This exquisite 7-room duplex within a 1901 limestone mansion designed by Carrère and Hastings epitomizes Manhattan sophistication and early 20th-century elegance evoking the charm of an 1880s London townhouse. A private elevator opens directly into residence 2A, a stunning duplex at approximately 1...,710 SF defined by two arched French windows adorned with original Tiffany & Company stained glass. The 22 x 22 SF south-facing sun-drenched living room features nearly 14-foot ceilings. It is adorned with original hand-carved wood details, built-in shelving, and a striking marble mantle with a wood-burning fireplace. A curved mahogany staircase leads to the upper level. Each room is bathed in natural light and boasts coffered ceilings, antique crown moldings, and handcrafted mahogany wood. This residence includes a flexible home office currently set up as a third bedroom, a spacious eat-in kitchen, and one of the most impressive living rooms on the market! The sunken eat-in kitchen boasts marble flooring and top-of-the-line appliances, including a custom oven, range, refrigerator, and Bosch dishwasher. Upstairs, the primary suite features a concealed wall of closets, ceiling-to-floor windows and comfortably fits a king-sized bed. The home office, which serves as a third bedroom, includes windows that overlook the living room, providing a unique perspective. The third bedroom, behind the kitchen, has an en suite bath. This residence offers ample storage and includes an in-unit washer/dryer. The exclusive 8-unit co-op offers a furnished, landscaped roof deck with 360-degree city views and additional laundry facilities in the basement, and a gym to come shortly. Located on East 68th Street, between Madison and Park Avenues, this pet-friendly building is just one block from Central Park and is surrounded by premier restaurants and luxury shopping, making it perfect for dog lovers and city enthusiasts alike. Flexible co-op. Foreign buyers allowed. About the Building: In 1899 Dr. Edward Kellogg Dunham and his wife, Mary, commissioned renowned architect Thomas Hastings of the firm Carrere & Hastings to fashion a French townhouse in the very au currant Beaux Arts style completed in 1901 called Dunham House. A decade later, this historic home was widely considered a pristine example of Hastings’ work and was a large part of why Hastings was then commissioned to design the New York home of Henry Frick in 1912 (The Frick Collection today). Today 35 East 68th Street still sits as a 25’ wide, limestone building which was designated by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission in 1981 after being converted into apartments in 1977.
