A Refined Upper East Side Retreat Poised high above the city in the renowned Imperial House, Residence 18S is an exquisitely reimagined corner home where impeccable craftsmanship meets Upper East Side sophistication. Spanning approximately 1,850 square feet and wrapped in luminous south and east exposures, this fully gut-renovated two-bedroom, two-bath residence was thoughtfully transformed by the acclaimed architecture and design firm Workshop APD, who collaborated with the homeowners to craft a gracious, contemporary home that balances warmth, luxury, and timeless Upper East Side elegance. A gracious entry foyer unfolds into an elegant gallery, setting the tone for the home’s refined scale and seamless flow. The expansive south-facing living room bathed in natural light through broad picture windows anchors the residence and leads effortlessly to a formal dining area and a spacious balcony offering open-sky city vistas. Newly installed 6-inch White Oak flooring runs throughout the home, enhancing its cohesiveness and elevated aesthetic. The chef’s eat-in kitchen is a masterclass in contemporary design, showcasing custom millwork, sculptural cabinetry, and refined Dekton Natura stone surfaces. Integrated premium appliances including Fisher & Paykel refrigeration, a JennAir professional range, XO hood insert, Bosch panel-ready dishwasher, Sharp microwave drawer, and an in-unit LG WashTower creating a harmonious blend of beauty and function. As the home transitions from the main living spaces, the primary suite appears with quiet confidence, a beautifully measured haven of comfort including his-and-hers walk-in closets, custom millwork, and beautifully considered proportions. The second bedroom, generous in scale and awash in natural light, offers exceptional versatility as a guest room, study, or library. Both bathrooms are executed with tranquil precision, featuring Banco Dolomiti marble, Waterworks fixtures, and thoughtfully selected stone and tile. Throughout the residence, bespoke millwork, refined lighting, new windows, and abundant custom storage underscore the home’s turnkey sophistication. Imperial House, an Emery Roth classic celebrated for its white-glove service, offers an array of premium amenities including full-time lobby attendants, elevator operators, a resident manager, a newly renovated state-of-the-art fitness center, a serene meditation garden, a dedicated children’s playroom, and an on-site garage with heavily discounted shareholder parking, complete with abundant EV chargers and direct access from within the building.
