Welcome home to this sun-flooded, south facing 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment, located in the heart of the Upper East Side. This spacious residence offers a perfect blend of elegance and convenience. The gracious entry foyer welcomes you with gallery lighting and sleek grey porcelain tile flooring, leading into the open living and dining area adorned with white oak wide-plank wood flooring. A wall of windows bathes the space in natural light, complemented by a custom-designed walnut built-in. Culinary enthusiasts will delight in the chef's kitchen, featuring honed Carrara marble countertops, top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances—including a GE cafe range with double oven and a Samsung French-door refrigerator/freezer with ice maker—alongside elegant cabinets with pull-out cookware drawers and a full-height pantry. Privacy is paramount, with the bedroom hallway discreetly separating the living area from the sleeping quarters. The primary bedroom boasts generous closet space and an en-suite bathroom with marble finishes. The secondary bedroom is equally spacious and features attractive built-ins for additional storage. A beautifully renovated second bathroom completes the living quarters, offering both style and functionality. The Diplomat offers an array of amenities including a live-in Super, attentive door staff (7am-1am), renovated laundry facilities, storage lockers, and bike storage. Gifting, co-purchasing, and pieds-à-terre are considered on a case-by-case basis, while subletting is permitted after two years of ownership with board approval. The vibrant neighborhood of the Upper East Side, renowned for its fine dining, prestigious schools, and upscale shopping are right outside your door. Central Park and the East River Promenade are just a stone's throw away, providing endless opportunities for outdoor recreation and relaxation. Regrettably, no pets allowed.
