Description
This quintessential Upper East Side studio offers a wonderful opportunity to own in a prime location. Tucked mid-block on a quiet stretch of East 78th Street, the home provides a peaceful retreat while remaining close to everything the neighborhood has to offer. Located just one flight up, the apartment enjoys bright northern exposures filling the space with natural light throughout the day. With over 9-foot ceilings, the home feels open and airy while overlooking tranquil garden trees for a serene and private setting. A rare combination for a studio, the apartment features exposed brick and a decorative fireplace, giving it classic New York charm. It also offers ample storage and generous closet space. The thoughtfully designed kitchen features a breakfast bar with seating, along with a stylish SMEG refrigerator that will remain with the unit! 417 East 78th Street is an intimate, four-story co-op with just 16 residences, situated between First and York Avenues. The building allows co-purchasers, guarantors, and parents buying with or for children. Cats are welcome; however, dogs are not permitted. Subletting is allowed after two years of ownership, subject to annual board approval. Conveniently located near the 6 and Q subway lines, as well as multiple bus routes, the apartment is moments from some of the city’s best dining, shopping, and cultural destinations and just a short distance from John Jay Park and Carl Schurz Park.

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 quiet, 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.
