Description

This expansive two-bedroom (convertible three), two-and-a-half-bath corner residence offers breathtaking, panoramic views of the East River and Carl Schurz Park from all but the secondary bedroom, which has northern river and skyline views. Apartment 16F has been fully renovated and is an exquisite, light-filled residence with a fantastic flow for entertaining, as well as a perfect layout for day-to-day living. Upon entering the apartment, you are greeted by a spacious entry hall, with a powder room and coat closet. The oversized living/dining room immediately impresses visitors with spectacular eastern views through oversized windows. Just off the living room, a library/den can easily be converted to a third bedroom or home office. The open chef’s kitchen has white cabinetry, quartz countertops and backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a washer/dryer. The primary suite is a true retreat, wrapping a corner and featuring the same open views of the river and the park. The en-suite windowed bath offers and a generous walk-in closet complete the suite. An additional bedroom with en-suite bath offers ample space and flexibility. Built in 1961, Henderson House is a beautifully maintained full-service co-op.

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.
