Description

Pre-war charm abounds in this elegant one bedroom corner apartment in the heart of the Upper East Side on one of Manhattan's coveted blocks! High beamed ceilings, beautiful hardwood oak flooring and oversized windows with excellent NW light in every room make this apartment warm and welcoming upon stepping through the door. A gracious foyer featuring two abundant closets opens through an archway into the expansive living-dining room with two oversized windows and through-the-wall air conditioning.

The windowed eat-in kitchen has two entrances allowing for a circular flow and maintains original wood cabinetry,stone tile flooring, and a large picture window. The spacious bedroom can accommodate a king-sized bedroom set and is framed by Western and Northern facing windows with treetop and church steeple views and through-the-wall air conditioning. A hallway with two additional closets leads to the windowed bathroom with subway tile walls, tile flooring and a porcelain vanity. Developed in 1928, this white-glove co-operative features 4 apartments per floor and is impeccably run and staffed with full-time doormen and a resident superintendent.

A lovely residents’ garden, central laundry room, bicycle storage and door to door mail delivery are just a few of the amenities you’ll enjoy. Private storage units are available on a waitlist basis. Located on tree-lined 79th Street, this boutique co-op is steps away from Central Park and is surrounded by the restaurants, shops, museums the Upper East Side is known for with convenient access to the Lexington and Second Avenue subway lines as well as the crosstown bus.
