Elevated above the city, this luminous Classic Seven with open views and sunlight captures the timeless elegance of prewar living. Three exposures-south, east, and north-fill the apartment with natural light throughout the day, while open skyline views create a calm backdrop to everyday life. A semi-private landing opens… Read More into an expansive entry gallery that sets a gracious tone. From there, the flow unfolds naturally-an airy living room with a wood-burning fireplace and dramatic city outlooks, a formal dining room that invites lively gatherings, and a spacious kitchen with a breakfast room, wet bar, powder room, and vented washer/dryer. In the private wing, three bedrooms offer wonderful proportions and flexibility. Two capture sweeping southern vistas, while the corner third enjoys morning light from the north and east. High ceilings, original wood floors, and elegant prewar details give the home a sense of quiet sophistication. With nearly every room framed by open views, Residence 12B has the scale, light, and classic prewar bones that make it an exceptional canvas for its next chapter. A dedicated basement storage unit accompanies the apartment. Designed in 1926 by James E. Carpenter, 170 East 79th Street is a boutique cooperative that blends architectural grace with intimate service. Residents enjoy a part-time doorman (8 a.m.-midnight), resident superintendent, landscaped garden, bike storage, and laundry facilities. Pets and through-wall A/C permitted with Board approval. Positioned between Lenox Hill and Carnegie Hill, the building is moments from the city's best shopping, dining, museums, and schools. Financing up to 70% permitted; buyer pays 1.5% flip tax.
