The charm is in the details of this beautifully-designed 1-Bedroom Co-op with 2 balconies and triple exposures in the architecturally distinctive Cherokee on Manhattan's Upper East Side! Located on the 5th floor of this non-elevator building, you'll enter this elegantly renovated home from a foyer with double closets, and be greeted by tons of light shining through huge triple sash floor-to-ceiling windows with gorgeous wooden sills. Rich wood floors that flow throughout, and built-in bookshelves/storage cabinets, complement the luxurious ambiance. Relax and entertain comfortably in the open living and dining rooms that are divided by a striking arched entry. The delightful and functional kitchen with a huge north-facing window, chic bricked wall, generous cabinet space, and marble counter-tops is sure to inspire the creative chef in you. Life at the landmarked Cherokee, which stretches from 77th/78th Streets between York Avenue and the East River, affords a residential respite near the conveniences of preferred city life. The romantic elements defining this magnificent prewar, Beaux-Arts building include intricate tiled Guastavino vaulted passageways connecting planted interior courtyards to breezy open stairways. The building allows pets, investors, guarantors, parents buying for children, pied-a-terres and unlimited subletting. Washers/dryers are permitted in apartments, too. There's also central laundry, a bike room, and private storage available. Gas and electric are included in your monthly maintenance. The Cherokee is adjacent to lovely John Jay Park and its fabulous recreational offerings. Stroll or bike along the East River Promenade, lap swim in the pool, take the kids to the playground, and get around town with the cross-town bus and 6 train minutes away.
