...Spanning approximately 6,050 square feet of interior space and 730 square feet of private outdoor space across five balconies and a large terrace, the home offers sweeping, unobstructed views in all four directions. From sunrise over the East River to sunset across Central Park, the skyline unfolds around you, with bridges, parks, and iconic buildings visible from every room. A private keyed elevator opens directly onto a dedicated landing, offering an exceptional level of privacy and security.

The upper level is both expansive and intuitive in its layout. A formal living room and dedicated dining room are connected by a gracious foyer, creating a sense of separation and arrival. The kitchen opens to a separate dining area and comfortable den, forming a more relaxed great room for everyday living. The scale of these spaces, combined with the outdoor areas, allows for seamless indoor outdoor flow and the ability to entertain on a level rarely found in condominium living.

A dramatic curved staircase anchors the home, with custom wrought iron detailing and a double height opening that draws light through both levels. Positioned alongside a window overlooking the river and skyline, the space captures both architectural detail and open views in a single, striking moment.

The kitchen is designed for both serious cooking and effortless hosting, with a full suite of top tier appliances, a walk in pantry, and a second pantry with an additional Sub Zero refrigerator, ideal for entertaining at scale.

Adjacent to the kitchen, an elegant custom lacquered bar is complemented by a 400 bottle Sub Zero wine cooler, creating a refined setting for entertaining.

The primary suite is a quiet retreat with its own terrace, open western and southern views, dual dressing rooms, and a windowed, spa like bath with double vanity, soaking tub, separate shower, and separate water closet. A secondary bedroom on this level is equally well-proportioned, with its own private balcony and an en-suite windowed bath.

A secondary private access point offers additional flexibility and convenience.

The lower level is devoted to three generously scaled bedrooms, each with true king-sized proportions, space for additional furnishings, and open views from every room. Thoughtfully separated for privacy, this level offers a sense of comfort and flexibility that is difficult to replicate.

The Oxford Condominium is a full service, white glove building offering 24 hour doorman and concierge, a live in resident manager, fitness center with pool and sauna, landscaped sundeck, basketball and pickleball courts, playroom, resident lounge, and on site parking.

Ideally located on the Upper East Side, the building is surrounded by some of the area’s most well regarded private and public schools, along with a wide range of dining and shopping. Transportation is seamless, with the Second Avenue Q line nearby, access to the 4, 5, and 6 trains, and the 72nd Street crosstown bus on the corner, providing convenient connectivity throughout the city.
