Description

Rare to the market is a one bedroom with such elevated finishes. This thoughtfully appointed, approximiatley 780 SF home, is located on the 11th floor of this 1928 prewar co-operative. Architectural details include beamed ceilings, decorative moldings, custom millwork, and an arched doorway between the entry foyer and the living room. An entrance foyer with coat closet opens to a generous living room with two east-facing windows - room enough for full living and dining areas. Any discerning chef will be thrilled with the oversized kitchen featuring top-of-the-line appliances including a Viking six-burner professional range with double oven, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine refrigerator. Custom cabinets run floor to ceiling, with glass fronts above and open shelving below, set against white subway tile and wood counters. There is a farmhouse sink and a built-in window seat with storage underneath. The corner bedroom easily accommodates a king-sized bed with East and North faciong windows, two large closets, and custom built-ins. The windowed bathroom is finished in prewar style with Waterworks fixtures, classic subway tile, pedestal sink and a mosaic floor. 179 East 79th Street is a 59 unit white-glove co-operative, built in 1928, with a full-time doorman, live-in resident manager, laundry room, bicycle room, and private courtyard. The building allows 75% financing with a 2% buyer paid flip tax. Various purchase scenarios (co-purchase, pied-a-terre, and guarantors) are considered at the discretion of the board. Pets are allowed within a 40-lb weight limit.

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.
