Overview
Welcome to Residence 7H at The Charles House , a meticulously crafted three-bedroom, three-bath home, designed by acclaimed Italian architect Leopoldo Rosati, offering bespoke finishes and purposeful design.
Located between Madison and Park Avenues, just moments from Central Park and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this 1,844-square-foot residence is a study in clean lines, refined materials, and quiet elegance.
Currently configured as a two-bedroom with a double living room, the layout allows for a seamless conversion back to its original three-bedroom plan. A gracious entry sets the tone, revealing an architectural flow grounded by wenge hardwood floors and custom mahogany millwork. Integrated lighting, gallery-style walls, and extensive built-ins carry throughout, creating a sense of cohesion and clarity.
The windowed kitchen faces east and is outfitted with Sub-Zero, Miele, Gaggenau, and Bosch appliances, stone countertops, and a breakfast bar—ideal for daily use or slow mornings at home.
All three bathrooms are appointed with Dornbracht and Duravit fixtures; the guest bath features a BainUltra soaking tub. The corner primary suite offers privacy and light, with a dressing corridor, custom closets, and a renovated en suite bath. The second bedroom, also en suite, is set apart from the main living areas and functions well as a guest room, study, or den.
Storage is abundant and discreet, including three walk-in closets and custom cabinetry throughout.
The Charles House is a full-service condominium offering 24-hour doorman service, a fitness center, on-site laundry, parking, a bike room, private storage, and a landscaped roof terrace with breath-taking views of Central Park.
A turnkey home in one of Manhattan’s most architecturally rich and culturally vibrant neighborhoods.

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.
