Description

Elegant Living in the Heart of the Upper East Side

Nestled among grand townhouses and historic mansions, this mint-renovated Junior 1-bedroom home offers a quiet respite in a very convenient location.

Entering the home, you are greeted by a generous 27-foot-long living and dining area, with space for an office. Bathed in light, five large windows run the entire length of the home’s southern wall and reflect light onto the beautifully maintained oak wood flooring. In addition, the heating/AC unit has a thermostat allowing for efficient temperature control.

Your newly renovated kitchen includes high quality 42-inch white high-gloss cabinets that reach to the ceiling, sleek quartz countertops, and top-of-the-line Bosch and Liebherr appliances.

Separated by elegant French doors, the bedroom suite has been thoughtfully designed to allow for maximum living and offers dedicated organized storage space.

The home boasts three full closets in the living room, as well as an impressive, large, extra deep custom California Closet storage unit. The bathroom marble walls and floor tiles have been regrouted and sealed, and a sleek new floating shower door has been installed.

166 East 61st Street is a professionally managed cooperative. The laundry room was upgraded with new machines in August 2021, and the building offers common storage and a bike room.

This is a financially strong coop, with no assessments and minimal maintenance increases in the last four years. There is an optional discounted Spectrum bulk deal for internet and cable in the building and the street is not impacted by proposed congestion pricing requirements.

This location is exceptional, with eight subway lines within a few block radius, including the 59th Street express stop with the 4/5/6, N/R/W, and the F/Q at 63rd & Lex.
