    What's special

    Introducing 40 East 66th St, 7B, a remarkable pre-war residence located in one of the Upper East side’s premier white-glove Condominiums, designed by Emory Roth in 1929. This expansive home features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, an abundance of natural light, hardwood floors, and high ceilings throughout. Extensively soundproofed, this corner apartment has outward facing windows in every room with city and park views. The foyer features a silver-leafed domed ceiling complemented by a custom-fabricated uplight. The living room exudes classical charm with its herringbone floors, wood-burning fireplace, and western views overlooking Madison Avenue. Adjacent to the living room, is a versatile den/media area that can be easily converted into a third bedroom using the sliding lacquered wood door panels with stainless steel inlays and the sofa bed. Drawing inspiration from the cabins of sailboats and trains, the den showcases exquisite craftsmanship in its shop-finished lacquered sapele mahogany wood paneling and custom closets. The day bed sofa converts into a full queen-sized bed with a simple pull on the customized hydraulic hidden mattress. Additionally, the den offers a customized pull-out desk, perfect for office work when needed. The original layout with the bathroom intact can be seamlessly restored. The windowed eat in kitchen features customized cabinetry with recessed counter lighting, inlaid tile back splashes and stone counter tops. The top-of-the-line appliances include: Viking professional 6 burner stove, Subzero refrigerator and 50 bottle wine cooler, Miele quiet dishwasher, Barber Wilson faucets and garbage disposal, a butler's pantry, ample storage space, and a breakfast nook with a built-in banquette for casual dining offering ample morning sunshine. Adjacent to the kitchen and through the glass doors is a formal dining area, perfect for hosting intimate gatherings or large dinner parties. Situated on the northwest corner, the primary bedroom offers a glimpse of Central Park with its double exposure. Two generously sized closets provide an abundance of storage space. The ensuite bath is lined with custom Thassos marble, a Waterworks soaking tub, Lefroy Brooks faucets, separate stall shower, double sinks, plus heated floor and towel racks. The second bedroom features warm wood tones and serves as a versatile space, currently set up as a library, office, or dressing room, complete with a full ensuite bath with Carrera marble and Waterworks hardware. Additional highlights include an in-unit Miele washer and dryer and excellent closet space to accommodate all your storage requirements. Spanning approximately 2,455 square feet with a gracious layout, it has been updated to meet today's standards of convenience while preserving the elegant comfort of its prewar details. Modern touches include custom-designed automated Lutron lighting and shades, Savant audio-visual system, soundproof windows, and HVAC units, ensuring a seamless blend of sophistication and contemporary living. This light filled corner apartment with city and central park views is remarkably quiet and peaceful thanks to customized soundproofing. Nestled in the esteemed Upper East Side, just a block away from Central Park, this residence provides unmatched proximity to premier dining, shopping, and cultural destinations. Originally constructed in 1929 and, this 13-floor building comprises 33 residences, offering a blend of classic charm and modern amenities.
