NextImg:Former UN ambassador Diego Arria lists chic Upper East Side pad

During the turbulent and transformative early 1990s, Diego Arria was Venezuela’s ambassador to the United Nations and president of the United Nations Security Council.

Now, Arria — who has written about Balkan war crimes and helped negotiate peace in El Salvador and Haiti in the ’90s — has listed his Upper East Side duplex inside a Gilded Age mansion for $4 million.

Arria bought the co-op for $3 million in 2013, according to property records.

The tony, renovated residence is at 17 E. 63rd St. between Fifth and Madison avenues. It occupies the first two floors of a 30-foot, five-story limestone mansion that dates to 1901.

The home comes with two bedrooms, 2½ baths, and boasts 21-foot-high ceilings and window walls overlooking a terraced garden.

There’s a living room with high ceilings and a working fireplace, an open dining area and encased French doors that lead to a private walled garden.

On the lower level, there’s a two-story-high set of windows, a home office nook, a wine alcove, a kitchen and lots of storage.

The listing brokers for Arria’s first-floor duplex are husband-and-wife duo James and Anna Hall of Compass. 

A second, 2,136-square-foot, second-floor co-op has also hit the market for $4.25 million. That’s listed by Corcoran’s Paul Kolbusz.
