Description

BALCONIED CONDO FREEDOM

SUN-FILLED SKYLINE-VIEW SOUTH-FACER

JUMBO 1BR w/UPGRADED OPEN KITCHEN w/DINING BAR

INVESTOR & PIED A TERRE FRIENDLY FULL-SERVICE BUILDING w/GYM & GARAGE

With all of the new-found conveniences of prime Lenox Hill and easy access to the Q train nearby, the popular and well-regarded Kingsley is supremely situated in the epicenter of a neighborhood whose time has come.

Here -- in full bloom all around you -- are cafes, gyms, restaurants, shops, and easy transport (the new Q train!), not to mention world-renowned medical destinations at your back door. But upstairs, on floor 10, is a very special condo -- a home that is bathed in Southern sunshine, and offering an al fresco jackpot: YOUR OWN PRIVATE BALCONY w/WORLD-CLASS SKY-LINE VIEWS.

Here is a residence that lets you stretch out in style -- allowing for an ideal mix of stay-at-home, work-from-home comfort and peace, along with the ease of entertaining in style -- both inside and outside. The living room is open to the refreshed kitchen with its stainless appliances and dining bar. The sizable bedroom offers two exposures (cross-breezes, anyone?), and impressive closet space. The private balcony is a bonus "living room" perfect for hanging out on your own outdoor couch -- rain or shine (covered) -- and enjoying bright, beautiful and fun outdoor moments. Underfoot are freshly re-done wood floors, all around you are oversized windows, and good light and loveliness are ever present.

This attractive condo home enjoys all the benefits of its popular Kingsley address: A round-the-clock staff includes full time doorman, a live-in Super, and porters -- and there are a garage, an onsite gym (actually a good one on floor 31!), a bike room, luggage room, and laundry service on every floor. Nearby is every area dining, nightlife, shopping, cultural, educational, and medical destination, and the East River promenade provides waterfront outdoor space just two blocks away. The Q, 6, F trains (and close by Citibike ports) make getting around a breeze, and Central Park is within no-so-distant reach.

Easy to live, easy to love, and easy to rent (hello, investors), life here is convenient, fabulous, and fun. Welcome home to comfort, sunshine, and indoor/outdoor beauty.

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
