Historic Prewar Duplex Condominium with Two Terraces and Exceptional Light

Perched on the 13th and 14th floors of the iconic Barbizon/63, this sun-filled, 2,940-square-foot three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath duplex is the perfect blend of classic prewar elegance and modern luxury. With four exposures and two private terraces, the home is wrapped in natural light and sweeping city views.

A gracious entry foyer with built-in storage and a stylish powder room opens into a stunning corner living room with oversized casement windows and direct access to both terraces-ideal for entertaining or simply enjoying the skyline. Off the living room, French doors lead to the dining room or a family room/den. The renovated features sleek granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and high-end appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and Miele cooktop and oven.

Upstairs, a dramatic windowed staircase with double-height ceilings leads to the private bedroom wing. The corner primary suite offers two oversized custom closets and a windowed spa-like marble bath with radiant heated floors, double vanity, and a sunlit shower. One of the closets is currently outfitted as a windowed home office. The second bedroom suite includes its own walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom, while the generously scaled third bedroom has easy access to another full bathroom just off the hall. A dedicated laundry closet with washer and dryer adds convenience and both floors are accessible by elevator.

Additional features include Crestron smart home controls, individual room climate control, soaring beamed ceilings, and exquisite prewar detailing throughout.

Originally built in 1927 as a residential hotel for women, the Barbizon has been home to cultural icons including Grace Kelly, Liza Minnelli, and Sylvia Plath. Converted to a luxury condominium in 2005, the landmarked building offers full-service white-glove amenities including a 24-hour doorman and concierge, resident lounge with catering kitchen and screening room, business center, and a private entrance to Equinox (which retains the original Barbizon pool).

Located on a quiet, tree-lined block between Third and Lexington, Barbizon/63 offers the best of both Midtown and the Upper East Side. Moments from Central Park, Bloomingdale's, Madison Avenue boutiques, Museum Mile, and multiple subway lines (N/Q/R/W, 4/5/6, F), making this an extraordinary opportunity in one of Manhattan's most coveted neighborhoods.
