From the time it was announced, Upper East Side condominium The Charles (1355 First Avenue) attracted attention for its design by Ismael Leyva and full-floor units with interiors by the London-based design firm David Collins Studio. Sales got off to a brisk start, and the remaining listings, all four-bedroom, four-bath homes, start at $6.349 million. The average price of $1,984 per square foot puts them above the Lenox Hill neighborhood average of $1,652 per square foot.

Building amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness center, children’s playroom, and 24-hour attended lobby with package room and cold storage. Families appreciate The Charles’ proximity to top schools, and all residents surely appreciate having the newly opened 72nd Street stop of the Second Avenue subway one block away. It is located on a quiet, tree-lined street, but top Madison Avenue stores, the East River waterfront, and area restaurants and nightlife are a short walk away.
Floor-to-ceiling windows, high ceilings, and expansive layouts make the most of the abundant light, air, and sweeping views.
