Description

Welcome to this iconic three bedroom, two and a half bath Fifth Avenue oasis. The fully-renovated pre-war home boasts a sprawling North facing layout, with tons of room for comfortable living and entertaining alike.

As you enter the home from a semi-private elevator landing, you are welcomed by the spacious entry foyer which opens up into the living room, with high beamed ceilings, large street-facing windows, original herringbone hardwood floors and a wood-burning fire place.

The lofty aesthetic of the living room transfers into the neighboring formal dining room, maintaining the same northern exposure and offering ample storage and design potential by way of the custom built-in shelving. To the rear is the windowed eat-in kitchen, offering more abundant storage, a corner breakfast banquette, and top-of-the-line appliances including premium Washer/Dryer.

The primary bedroom is complete with en-suite bathroom, and the two primary bedrooms are conjoined by the second full bath. There is a third half bathroom conveniently situated in the hallway for all of your visitors.

The home has been rewired throughout, 2-zone CAC, sound system, and new, double-paned city windows. The unit comes with a private storage unit.

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.
