Description

Introducing this south-facing, high-floor 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom with sweeping midtown views in a full-service co-op on the Upper East Side. This spacious and bright unit is in excellent condition throughout and features an updated galley kitchen with window cutout for stool seating, a living/dining area measuring over 30’ long, original parquet floors, baseboard moldings, an in-unit washer/dryer, through-wall air conditioning, custom motorized shades, fantastic closet space - 8 in total! - and two large bedrooms with plenty of room to spare for furnishings. The comfortable kitchen offers granite countertops with matching backsplash, custom cabinetry reaching to the ceiling and recessed lighting. All the stainless-steel appliances are new within the past few years, including a double door GE fridge, GE range with air fryer, microwave, and a Bosch dishwasher. The primary ensuite boasts a walk-in shower with sliding glass doors, decorative accent tile on the walls and hex tile on the floor while the second bath has a standard tub, pedestal sink and simple white floor and wall tile. Not to be overlooked, the stackable washer/dryer is located right outside the second bathroom in yet another closet and offers added convenience and storage with floor to ceiling shelving inside. Built in 1957, this financially sound co-op boasts a full-service doorman, a live-in super, and an onsite garage for your convenience. A newly landscaped roof deck provides a serene escape, and the pet-friendly policy ensures that your furry companions will feel right at home. The building's renovated lobby and hallways are an added touch to an already well-run and stable building. A few blocks from the 4, 5, 6 trains and the Second Avenue Q train. Current assessment of $120.31/mo. included in the maintenance.

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.
