Description

Immediate Subletting Allowed! Located in the distinguished Cherokee Complex, this rarely available, newly renovated studio apartment features high ceilings, hardwood floors, and two stunning 9 ft triple hung windows, each possessing cast iron balconies overlooking the East River beyond John Jay Park. The brand new windowed kitchen offers a Bosch dishwasher, microwave, and refrigerator package along with a Bertazzoni gas range, Caesarstone counters, and custom cabinetry. The bathroom is also beautifully renovated and also includes a window for ventilation. Monthly maintenance includes all your utilities (gas, electric and water.) Washers and dryers are permitted in unit with board approval. The Cherokee cooperative is located between 77th and 78th streets, between York Avenue and Cherokee Place, and across the street from John Jay park, its pools, playground and sport courts, and a short stroll over the FDR to the East River Promenade. The Cherokee consists of four interconnected buildings, with four beautifully maintained courtyards, accessed through Gustavino-tiled, barrel-vaulted passageways that connect the inner courtyards to both 77th and 78th Streets. The cooperative is managed by an onsite/ live in super and offers a central laundry room, free bike room, large storage units for rent, video intercom, a package room, and a night-time security guard. This flexible cooperative allows parents purchasing, co-purchasing, guarantors, and immediate subletting.

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.
