Description

This meticulously renovated two bedroom, two-bath garden apartment is one of the most special apartments you will find on the Upper East Side. The nearly 27' living room has soaring 11' coffered ceilings, a beautiful wood burning fireplace, and leads to a nearly 1200 square foot garden through huge French doors.

The utterly charming, professionally designed bricked garden is the perfect place for entertaining, enjoying a quiet dinner, or just relaxing with a book.

The brickwork, lattices, and shuttered windows make one feel as if they have been transported to the gardens of Savannah.

The corner Master Suite offers views to the garden in both the bedroom and bath. It is replete with beautiful details including custom wainscoting, coffered ceilings, built-in bookcases, and cleverly hidden custom closets.

The second bedroom or den has an en-suite windowed bath and handsome custom moldings.

The delightful windowed kitchen features abundant storage, Viking range and Sub Zero refrigerator.

Great attention and care was paid to even the smallest detail of this home. It is exquisitely designed and is truly one-of-a-kind.

Situated on a prime Upper East Side tree-lined block, The Morgan Studios is a highly coveted pet-friendly cooperative with live-in superintendent and exceptional staff.

There is a 3% flip tax payable by buyer and 60% financing is now permitted. Outside storage available
