A top-floor penthouse has just been listed for sale at the The Yorkgate at 25 East End Avenue. The 4-bedroom, 5-bath co-op has an ask of $4.495 million.
The 1929-built gem, the home sits atop was designed by Cross and Cross and has been described by Carter Horsley as “one of the most attractive on East End Avenue.” Its Neo-Georgian style set the tone for many of the other residential buildings rising on East End Avenue at the time, yet still stands out today for its bold quoins and finials.

Residents enter through an elegant gallery, which leads to a grand corner living room with a wood-burning fireplace and an expanse of east- and south-facing windows filling the apartment with sunlight and overlooking the East River, bridges, and New York skyline. It is one of several grand entertaining rooms, including a formal dining room and a library (or additional bedroom) with full en-suite bath.
Elsewhere in the penthouse, the windowed, eat-in kitchen has two adjacent staff rooms and a full bath that could be used as an office or incorporated into a larger chef’s kitchen. A private hallway off the gallery leads to three sunny bedrooms, all of which have direct East River views, ample closet space, and full en-suite baths. Other features include hardwood floors, new central air-conditioning, original molding, and the highest ceilings in the building.
