300 East 59th Street Midtown East Apartment For Sale

A Published Masterpiece in the Sky 

Perched on the coveted northeast corner of the 35th floor, this residence is offered for the first time since its masterful designer renovation by Sarah Zames & Colin Stief of General Assembly. Reimagined with a clean material palette, the home balances refined architecture with effortless livability. 

Walls of glass frame panoramic views across the ever-changing East Side skyline, creating a home of many moods and scenes. With balconies on both sides of the apartment, the vistas can be enjoyed from the outdoors as well. As Dezeen observed in its feature on the residence, the architects sought "a balance between the feeling of being in the air, while being grounded by the weight of the building." 

The custom kitchen is anchored by a concrete waterfall island with a built-in wine fridge and microwave drawer. Light wood cabinetry frames the Thermador suite, including a 6-burner gas cooktop and oven, Sapphire Glow dishwasher, and refrigerator with Open Door Assist- just a gentle touch opens the door, the ultimate luxury detail.  Windows line the kitchen, filling the space with light and lively city views, turning daily routines into moments of enjoyment. Honed Caesarstone counters and a sophisticated ceramic tile backsplash complete the modern design, while built-in shelving offers a stylish home for barware, vases, and everyday essentials. 

The primary suite offers a serene retreat, complete with two closets plus a 14-foot walk in by California Closets. Pocket doors provide quiet separation, while custom millwork introduces floating bedside tables and subtle ledges for art or keepsakes. A unique architectural opening filters natural light between the bedroom and bath, elevating both spaces.  

The ensuite is finished with a travertine vanity, soaking tub, Japanese washlet, matte black fixtures, and richly hued vertical tile, a striking marriage of warmth and refinement. 

The second bedroom includes a generous closet and is enclosed by a sliding panel of reeded glass, a purposeful design choice that allows natural light to filter through while maintaining privacy. This thoughtful detail makes the room ideal not only as a bedroom but also as a home office or den.

The other full bath features a stall shower, midnight cabinetry, travertine vanity, brass fixtures, and a Japanese washlet. 

Additional thoughtful details include discreet TV wall behind sliding door, built-in entry storage, motorized shades, Lutron-controlled lighting, anti-UV window films, and split AC units in the bedrooms. 

The Landmark is a full-service luxury building offering a modern lobby, landscaped roof deck, garage with Zipcar, and on-floor washer/dryer access. Two dogs or cats are welcome per apartment!
