The European-style chef’s kitchen boasts ample storage and opens seamlessly into a dedicated corner dining area surrounded in glass, creating an inviting space for entertaining.

The serene primary bedroom is generously proportioned and features an en-suite marble bathroom and a large walk-in closet with custom built-ins, offering extensive storage options. A marble-accented powder room conveniently located off the entrance foyer adds to the apartment’s functionality.

Situated on one of the most picturesque tree-lined blocks of East 74th Street, Saga Houe is a full-service East Side condominium with 24/7 doormen.

Additional amenities include central air-conditioning and an in-unit washer and dryer, ensuring a meticulous blend of convenience and luxury.
