Overview
Welcome to The Charles, a boutique 32 story luxury condominium offering an unparalleled level of privacy, scale, and craftsmanship. The building is comprised exclusively of full floor four bedroom residences and a singular duplex penthouse, creating a living experience that feels more like a private home than a high rise. Designed by a world class international team, The Charles was envisioned by Ismael Leyva Architects in New York with interiors by the legendary David Collins Studio of London. Together, they have created one of the most refined and architecturally distinctive residential buildings in New York City. The fourth floor residence spans approximately 3,637 square feet and offers a true loft like layout with four bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms. A private elevator landing opens directly into the home, complemented by a separate service entrance for added discretion and convenience. Situated within the limestone base of the building, the residence features dramatic 9 foot 4 inch ceilings in the living areas, oversized east facing windows, and floor to ceiling west facing windows that flood the home with natural light throughout the day. The expansive living and entertaining spaces are anchored by a custom designed eat in kitchen outfitted with Miele and Sub Zero appliances, bespoke cabinetry, and elegant finishes. Bathrooms are clad in exquisite Italian marble, while wide plank 5 inch white oak flooring runs throughout the residence. Additional features include four zone central HVAC, a dedicated laundry room with side by side Electrolux washer and vented dryer, and pre wiring for a Kraus home automation system. The residence also includes a private storage unit. This is a rare opportunity to own a full floor home in one of New York’s most thoughtfully designed luxury condominiums.

Upper East Side
Overview of Upper East Side
The Upper East Side (UES) is the epitome of classic New York wealth and culture. Stretching from Central Park to the East River, it is home to Museum Mile, Madison Avenue fashion, and some of the most prestigious addresses in the world. For buyers seeking Upper East Side Manhattan real estate, it offers a lifestyle of polished elegance and safety.
Living in the Upper East Side ranges from the ultra-luxury of Fifth Avenue to the bustling, younger energy of Second Avenue. As a premier Manhattan NYC neighborhood, it remains the gold standard for residential stability and top-tier schools.
Real Estate & Housing Market
The market for homes for sale in the Upper East Side is surprisingly diverse. While famous for $20 million townhouses and co-ops, the eastern avenues (Yorkville) offer excellent value for studios and one-bedrooms.
It is valid to say it has two markets: the "Gold Coast" west of Lexington (historic, expensive, co-op heavy) and the area east of Lexington (more condos, more rentals, more affordable).
Lifestyle & Community
The lifestyle on the UES is refined. Residents spend weekends at the Met or the Guggenheim, jogging in Central Park, and dining at established bistros. It is less trendy than downtown but more livable.
The community is generational. You will see grandmothers and toddlers who both grew up in the neighborhood. It feels established, clean, and manicured.
Transportation & Accessibility
The Upper East Side was transformed by the Second Avenue Subway (Q train), which relieved pressure on the 4/5/6 line. Now, the area feels incredibly connected to Midtown and downtown.
The crosstown buses through the park (at 65th, 79th, 86th, 96th) are vital lifelines to the West Side.
Parks, Schools & Amenities
Central Park is the neighborhood's front yard. Carl Schurz Park on the East River is a hidden gem with a dog run and promenade.
Amenities are world-class. The area has the highest concentration of private schools in the city (Dalton, Spence, Chapin) and top hospitals (Lenox Hill, Mt Sinai), making it a magnet for families and professionals.
Who This Neighborhood Is Best For
The Upper East Side is best for families, culture lovers, and anyone who wants a classic, safe, and green New York City experience.
