Description

Welcome to this exquisite 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom co-op nestled at 222 E 71st St, Manhattan. This pre-war building exudes classic elegance and offers a desirable blend of modern comforts and timeless architectural elements. The centerpiece of the apartment is a large, well-appointed living and dining room with a wall of southern windows. The hardwood floors throughout the property add warmth and character, while the built-ins flank a working wood-burning fireplace and provide charm and practical storage solutions. The windowed kitchen boasts a dishwasher and electric stove (though gas is allowed). A former dumbwaiter can be removed to expand the kitchen, and is one possible spot for in-unit Laundry which is allowed. The primary bedroom is a peaceful tree-top oasis, with eastern and southern facing windows that start the day with plenty of natural light. The bedroom can fit a king bed and it has three closets. The ensuite bath was just renovated and has yet to be used. The 2nd bedroom is separate in the back of the apartment and has its own eastern facing windows and ensuite bath with a stand up shower. This 1925 building was designed by Treanor and Fatio. The co-op provides a large private storage unit, an elevator and laundry facilities for added convenience. Situated in a prime location, this home presents an exceptional opportunity to experience the best of the UES along with convenient access to both the Q and 6 trains. Don't miss the chance to make this sophisticated home your own!

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.
