Spanning a glorious 25 feet wide, 162 East 92nd Street is a rare and spectacularly designed home offering over 10,000 square feet of interior space with 5 bedrooms, 6-and-a-half bathrooms, and massive living space throughout. Having undergone a two-year long masterful renovation, every inch of this home is flawless. United by a striking, cove-lit steel staircase and a commercial grade elevator, no expense to achieve perfection has been spared. Equally exceptional for its outdoor space, this home is completed by a South-facing, bi-level rear garden, a third floor terrace overlooking the garden and a rooftop which can be finished as well. Outside, a coveted cut curb has been retained and can be reactivated for car access if desired.
THE GARDEN LEVEL
A dramatic entry gallery leads to the heart of this home: an enormous, sun-flooded great room with almost 20-foot ceilings and an entire wall of glass looking onto the garden outside. The open floor plan creates a seamless indoor/outdoor living and entertaining experience, warmed by one of three fireplaces found throughout this home. This extravagant living space is complimented by the finest design finishes and surrounds a sleek, oversized chef's eat-in kitchen with top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, center island and generous counter and storage space.
THE MEZZANINE
Overlooking the Great Room and garden below, the mezzanine is a beautiful blend of classic and modern design. With soaring, 18-foot ceilings, enormous double-hung windows, a stately fireplace, elegant wood paneling and cove lighting overhead, the space is literally sensational. Currently configured casually as a sitting room alongside a recreation room, this level can easily be used as a formal living space or majestic library instead.
THE THIRD FLOOR
Occupied by an elaborate bedroom suite, the Northern hall of the third floor overlooks the mezzanine below and opens to a large sun-filled terrace to the South. There are wall-to-wall built-in closets, dressing area and large en-suite full bathroom with stall shower, herringbone porcelain tile floors and classic subway tile walls.
THE FOURTH FLOOR
There are three bedrooms on this level, each with beautifully finished en-suite full bathroom. Facing North, the largest bedroom overlooks 92nd Street and has an enormous walk-in closet and en-suite bath with a deep soaking bathtub. To the South, there are two additional bedrooms, each with customized closet space and perfectly appointed en-suite bath. There is also a laundry room on this floor for added convenience.
THE FIFTH FLOOR
A fabulous and decadent master suite encompasses the entirety of the fifth floor. The master bedroom overlooks the garden below through a wall-to-wall picture window with customized deep-stained wood bookcase below. The room is warmed by the house's third fireplace and bathed in light by skylight overhead. The skylight is cleverly shared by a massive, 6-fixture windowed spa bathroom with gorgeous wood and stone finishes, double vanity, double stall steam shower, Waterworks soaking bathtub, a separate water closet with bidet and radiant heat floors. The North portion of this floor has been devoted to an enormous, customized dressing room with window seat, an additional oversized walk-in closet and a triple-desk windowed home office.
THE BASEMENT
A vast and fully finished basement houses a media room/den, home gym, additional finished room for flexible use, full bath, sizable laundry room with industrial-sized washer/dryer and tremendous storage space.
162 East 92nd Street is truly a rare and unparalleled offering of the highest caliber and perfection. Fabulously located in the coveted Carnegie Hill neighborhood of the Upper East Side, it enjoys close proximity to the city's finest museums and cultural institutions, a rich host of luxury and boutique shopping and dining and Manhattan's most preeminent schools.
