Description

Introducing residence 2D, a prewar home exuding elegance and sophistication, nestled within one of NYC’s finest cooperatives. This south-facing gem offers stunning views of the rear Southgate gardens and features exquisite renovations, including refinished original hardwood floors, a grand and intricately detailed living room with a beamed ceiling, four closets (two of which are walk-in), a wood-burning fireplace flanked by custom bookcases, and a spacious formal dining area adorned with a mural on canvas painted by Andrea Biggs in 2005, capturing the Hudson River School. The renovated windowed kitchen boasts Macre African cherry cabinetry from the D&D Building, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances.

The large primary bedroom includes an en-suite, windowed bathroom and a generously sized walk-in closet. Enjoy the exceptional tranquility and spacious living offered by this residence. Situated within The Southgate, a distinguished pre-war property developed by the renowned Bing & Bing and designed by Emery Roth in 1927, this cooperative is located on a picturesque, tree-lined street with captivating views of the East River and Queensboro Bridge from the cul-de-sac. The full-service cooperative is pet-friendly and allows for guarantors, co-purchase, gifting, and pieds-à-terre.

Financing of up to 80% is permitted, and maintenance includes electric, water, and heat. Residents benefit from a 24-hour doorman, live-in super, on-site management, as well as amenities such as storage, a laundry room, an outdoor play area, and a serene landscaped garden. The neighborhood offers an array of attractions, including fine and casual dining, bookshops, boutiques, and convenient public transportation. Nearby amenities such as Peter Detmold Park & Dog Run, the new East River Greenway (currently under construction), and a variety of shopping venues, including Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Morton Williams, The Cheese Shoppe, and Midtown Catch, further enhance the neighborhood’s appeal.

Pet-friendly policies, guarantor options, gifting, co-purchase, and pieds-à-terre are all permitted within this exceptional community. There is an ongoing assessment of $315.90/mo until July 2027, which will be paid off by the seller before closing.
