This is a rare opportunity to live in this elegantly-renovated Penthouse with Balcony at the highly-coveted building, the Continental Towers Condominiums in prime Upper East Side.

As you open the door to your new home, the unobstructed Southern view from the 37th floor greets you. Enjoy the dramatic views, whether it's during the day or evening, you will never tire being bathed in sunshine or moonshine marveling at the beautiful cityscape. As you step into your large foyer (a great spot for an office desk), look to your right and enjoy a chef's kitchen (this configuration provides a larger than usual kitchen) with handmade, imported splash tiles and Kraftmade cabinetry with recessed lights, Ceaserstone surface tops, electrical faucet and the ever-so-silent Bosch dishwasher, Bosch range oven, microwave and refrigerator. No cost has been spared in the renovation of this penthouse condo from the skim-coated walls, Delta recessed lights in the living room and beautiful engineered flooring from Carlisle Wide Plank floors throughout. Step in your spa-like bathroom well-appointed with a vanity imported from Italy, a medicine cabinet with double mirrors and internal light complete with USB plugs, and thermostatic valve and shower equipment from Hans Grohe. Convenience and romance are a priority in the large bedroom with custom-made closets and Delta bedside lights. Enjoy your morning coffee in the large balcony - make sure you step out and experience what it's like to have no obstruction above you since you are now an owner of this marvelous penthouse apartment. The sky is indeed the limit.

All windows have been refurbished with new ballast, glass (with gas in between double glaze), all closets custom-made and the AC and heat units have been replaced with the most powerful allowed. The lobby and service at Continental Towers are unparalleled, complete with a gorgeous chandelier set in the middle of a 30 ft ceiling, with doorman and concierge that will spoil you. There is also a landscaped roof deck, roof garden, huge laundry, fitness center (for owner's only). Halls were recently renovated, and the lobby will be renovated in 2024. Come see this property with a broker who has owned and sold in the building since the early 1990's, knows every gourmet restaurant and bars in the area, takes the Q and 6 train (a stone's throw away), plays with his family at the nearby Carl Shurz, Central Park, the Met Museum, has served on the PTA at the school around the corner and is active in the local community board and city council. This part of the Upper East Side is one of the most desirable because of its nurturing community. Make your private appointment to see it now.
