Description

This is the one! Rarely do you come across a home perfectly positioned on the corner of Madison Avenue and East 68th Street, on one of the Upper East Side's most coveted blocks, with three exposures. Residence 10F is a beautifully kept two-bedroom residence (currently being used as a one-bedroom with home-office or guest suite) offers over 1,100 square feet of elegant living space, exceptional natural light, and the ability to easily convert back to a two-bedroom home. With exposures to the east, west, and south, the residence enjoys sunlight throughout the day and open views from every window. An expansive living room and separate dining area provide an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining, while the generously proportioned primary bedroom offers tremendous flexibility. A private 12-foot balcony provides a lovely outdoor retreat. Thoughtfully updated with an emphasis on quality and timeless design, the home features a granite kitchen, marble bathroom, beautiful hardwood floors, crown moldings, custom hardware, and Waterford ceiling fixtures. Storage is equally impressive, with two oversized walk-in closets, four additional closets, and supplementary storage included with the apartment. 20 East 68th Street is an elegant, full-service condop offering a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, and a peaceful residential atmosphere in the heart of the Upper East Side. With no rental restrictions, the building offers exceptional flexibility for investors and end users alike. Pied-à-terre ownership and parents purchasing for children are also permitted. Just moments from Central Park and surrounded by world-class shopping, dining, museums, and neighborhood conveniences, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy gracious living in one of Manhattan's most desirable locations.

Broker Commission Disclosure: Broker commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable.

How working with a buyer's agent works: I work for you, not the seller. Before I show you anything, New York brokerage rules ask us to put that in writing: an agreement and a disclosure that say I work for you and negotiate on your behalf. The agreement is non-exclusive: you can work with other agents, it runs for a short fixed term we agree on, and you can end it with a note. You may attend open houses independently without an agreement. Read how it works
