Description

Welcome to the ultimate city sanctuary situated atop The Avon House, 340 East 74th Street, PHB, in Lenox Hill on the Upper East Side. Nestled in a post-war low-rise building that guarantees an intimate and personalized experience, this gem is perfect for those looking to enjoy the serenity of city living without compromising on accessibility to neighborhood delights. A sanctuary bathed in an abundance of natural light from the north and west, this one-bedroom, one-bathroom haven boasts a city view that will truly inspire.

Bask in the flood of natural light pouring in from each room thanks to the unit’s excellent north and west exposures. Coupled with charming city views, your daily dose of skyscraper sunrise and sundown is a well-deserved treat. Hardwood flooring throughout adds a touch of timeless elegance, while updated appliances and a windowed kitchen make it a charming space that enhances the pleasure of at-home cooking.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a designated dining area - an intimate space prime for entertaining or enjoying leisurely meals. Be warned: your friends might keep coming back for more dinner gatherings. Especially when you shop at nearby Agata & Valentina for delicious gourmet food.

The ample, well-lit bedroom echoes the theme of space and light prevalent throughout the apartment. The storage facilities are thoughtfully designed - offering great closet space that answers Manhattan’s call for efficient use of space. For those warmer city days, the apartment comes equipped with a thru-wall cooling system, ensuring comfortable indoor temperatures all year round.

The massive terrace is like having another living room.

It runs the length of the apartment and wraps around allowing you to control all the plantings outside of the window. The space is large enough to include large planters, a dining area and a few chaise lounges to relax outdoors with room to spare. The current owner reports being delighted by all four seasons in this private oasis.

This well-run building is facilitated with a full-time doorman and a live-in Resident manager.

There is a large and renovated laundry room in the basement and for a fee both secured storage and a bicycle room. There is also an inviting rooftop oasis with Wi-Fi, a shower and plenty of seating. Pets are welcome with Board pre-approval. Pied-a-terre, co-purchasing and parents buying for children is permitted but there are no guarantors.

There is a 2% flip tax. Rich in history and bursting with vibrant city life, the Upper East Side is an adorned neighborhood that brims with various cuisine experiences, shopping havens, and plenty of transportation options just by the doorstep of 340 East 74th Street.
