DESCRIPTION

Introducing #12 at 55 east 76th street - a rare opportunity to own a floor-through 2-bedroom (flex 3) residence in the 19th century landmark building the imperial, situated in the most coveted part of the park and madison avenue corridor, adjacent to the storied carlyle hotel and mere moments away from the city's most high-end shopping and dining scene and central park.  

enter #12 and be welcomed with soaring 10-foot ceilings, original moldings, tons of charming pre-war detail, abundant closet and storage space, and parquet flooring throughout.  Down the hallway, you will find a gorgeous living room with great volume, an original fireplace, and oversized windows offering abundant south-facing sunshine.  Just off the living room is a versatile space that is currently set up as a study but the space can easily be made into a double-sized living room.  Continuing down the hallway is a windowed formal dining room leading to the primary bedroom with fireplace, the secondary bedroom, a huge windowed bathroom and a massive windowed eat-in kitchen tucked in the rear of this pin-drop quiet residence.  This fifth-floor residence offers diverse possibilities for the next homeowner and makes it possible to live in the residence while planning renovations; see alternate floor plans for further design inspiration.  

built in 1883, the imperial is an intimate neo-grecian brownstone co-op offering just 21 residences, with only two to three residences per floor.  Located right next to the carlyle hotel and a stone's throw from central park, the imperial represents the very best of upper east side living.  The co-op permits pied- -terres, sublets, guarantors and pets, and washer/dryer installation with board approval.  A doorman is available every day from 8am to midnight, and there is a laundry room as well as additional storage (deeded with this unit) available in the basement.
