Description

RARE 4BR/3BA UES PRE-WAR WITH TWO FIREPLACES - EXCEPTIONAL VALUE!
Scale - - Charm - - Versatility - - Unique Opportunity on the UES

Space, charm, and exceptional value converge in this rarely available four-bedroom/three bath Upper East Side pre-war home with two wood-burning fireplaces, at a compelling price.

Welcome to 222 East 71st Street, Apt. 3CD - a spacious, beautifully proportioned 4BR/3BA pre-war home offering exceptional value on the UES. Featuring two wood-burning fireplaces and new hardwood floors, this charming apartment offers generous living space and a flexible layout, with room to grow, that easily adapts to modern living. Four-bedroom homes of this size and scale on the UES, offering opportunities for the long term, are increasingly difficult to find at this price point.

Located in a charming 24-unit pre-war co-op on a quiet tree-lined block, the apartment offers multiple living areas ideal for entertaining or relaxing. A welcoming foyer opens to a sun-filled south-facing living room with oversized windows and a wood-burning fireplace. A windowed dining room provides an elegant setting for entertaining, while a separate media room or den, also with a fireplace, provides additional space for a family room, library, or entertaining.

The thoughtfully designed layout features two separate, private bedroom wings, each with two bedrooms, and provides excellent separation between living and sleeping areas. All four bedrooms are generously scaled. The corner primary suite enjoys south and east exposures, abundant natural light, a dressing area, generous closets, and an ensuite bath. Three additional bedrooms with ample closets are bright and well-proportioned, including one overlooking a charming leafy park with fountain views and another with its own ensuite bath.

The kitchen is bright and cheerful, complete with ample counter space, updated appliances, a full-size vented washer/dryer, and with large windows overlooking the park and garden - a rare and delightful amenity.

Built in 1925, the elevator building is on a prime tree-lined UES block, moments from Central Park, renowned restaurants, boutiques, and gourmet markets including Citarella and Whole Foods Market. Convenient access to the "6" and "Q" trains and bus lines. Attractive, charming lobby, live-in superintendent (who takes in packages), private storage, and laundry. Pets and pied-à-terres are welcome. 65% financing is permitted. 2% flip tax.

A rare opportunity to make this distinctive and spacious UES apartment at 222 East 71st Street, Apt. 3CD your extraordinary new home for the long term. Contact me today for a private showing!
