New Yorkers crave space, and this Upper East Side apartment has it in spades!

It’s been recently renovated, has five bedrooms (plus an additional staff room), five full bathrooms and two half-baths, a beautifully appointed primary bedroom wing, and a massive eat-in kitchen, too — all just a block or so from Central Park.

A spacious home with a smart layout

Beyond the specs, the home offers generously sized rooms with a gracious layout that cleverly separates the areas for comfortable living.

The home is located at 40 East 84th Street on the corner of Madison and East 84th ​Street on the Upper East Side, ​just ​one block from Central Park and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. It’s listed by Coldwell Banker Warburg brokers Rebecca Blacker, Arlene Reed, and agent Monisha Rana, asking $6,995,000.

Split into two wings

It’s bisected into two main wings, with one side housing two bedrooms, the kitchen, a staff room, and a separate staff entrance. The other has the primary bedroom, a bedroom that can double as a den, another bedroom, the dining room, and the main living room.

The main entrance hall’s adjacent powder room has custom Gracie wallpaper, plus a marble sink and floors.

There’s gorgeous millwork in the dining room, and the kitchen is loaded with name-brand appliances (a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a six-burner Wolf range with oven, two Miele dishwashers, and a Sub-Zero wine fridge), and a built-in bar. The bedrooms feature custom shades, California Closets, sound-proofed oak hardwood floors, and loads of closet space, too.

The primary bedroom wing hosts the huge bedroom suite — that has its own sitting area and desk — but also two oversized separate dressing room closets that have already been built out and custom fitted.

The renovated en-suite primary bathroom has a large glass enclosed shower, double vanity sinks, and a storage closet.

With surprisingly large secondary bedrooms

On the opposite side of the apartment are three secondary bedrooms, each with its own renovated en-suite bathroom. These bedrooms have beautiful grand proportions, and have either north/street exposures or south, sunny open courtyard views.

Down the hall from the primary bedroom wing is a large fifth bedroom that is currently being used as a playroom with its own newly renovated full bathroom. That bedroom can double as a den/office or guest room.
