Description
Move right into this beautiful and spacious mint home with open northerly views over 79th Street from the 15th floor. The apartment has been completely renovated with thoughtful planning; this includes a new top-of-the-line windowed kitchen, marble bathrooms, and thru-wall A/C units (which can be controlled all year by the owner). The perfect home for the discerning buyer! A gracious entry gallery greets you as you enter the living room which opens into the dining room and ultimately the gorgeous kitchen with quartz countertops and custom-white wood cabinetry. The hallway off the gallery leads to the two bedrooms, keeping the entertainment area very separate from the sleeping quarters. There are 7 large closets throughout that are beautifully outfitted with natural wood. Other noteworthy details include custom cabinetry over each AC/radiator unit and new wide plank wood floors in the living room, dining room, kitchen, and hallways. The Gregory House is a full-service, pet-friendly white glove co-op with a 24-hour doorman and live-in super. Residents enjoy easy access to transportation (Crosstown bus on East 79th Street, Second Avenue Subway Q line, Lexington Avenue 6 line, and FDR), restaurants, and multiple parks (East River Promenade, Carl Schurz Park, and John Jay Park) as well as proximity to some of the city's best schools. Other amenities include a landscaped roof terrace outfitted with furniture, a laundry room with brand new machines, a fitness center, a bike room, shared luggage storage, and on-site parking. 75% financing is permitted. Co-purchasing and pieds-a-terre are considered on a case-by-case basis, and subletting for a limited duration is permitted with board approval following several years of ownership. A W/D is not permitted in the apartment.

About Upper East Side
View All Upper East Side ListingsThe 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.
