Description

THE ONE YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR. The location between Lexington and Third Avenue is brilliantly and conveniently located in the heart of New York City, making it an exceptional residence in a beautiful pre-war full-time doorman building. This lovely apartment features everything one could need from a primary residence or a second home in New York City. As you enter this gorgeous junior 4 apartment, you will be greeted by a large foyer, spacious living room, and dining area with a wall of southern-facing windows overlooking a serene tree-lined street. The alcove area off the living room is currently used as a dining room but could easily be converted into a small bedroom or office, depending on the buyer’s needs.

There is a significant amount of closet space with a humongous walk-in closet. Apartment 2B is in a move-in condition and is ready to welcome its new owner. 155 East 49th Street is a pre-war co-op building that stands ten stories high with 71 apartments. This unbeatable location is close to Rockefeller Plaza, museums, the Waldorf Astoria, the United Nations, the Theater District, Times Square, and some of New York’s best shopping and restaurants.

A short distance from Grand Central Station, you can be anywhere in the city with access to all the major subway lines. It features new laundry facilities, a full-time doorman, a live-in resident manager, an attended elevator, and bike and storage rooms. You also have quick access to the 59th Street Bridge and Midtown Tunnel and a short drive across town to the Lincoln Tunnel, giving you outstanding convenience to all surrounding airports.

Co-purchasing and pied-a-terre are permitted. Sorry, no dogs. Cat friendly. The seller is offering a $6,000 maintenance credit at closing for one year to a new buyer if the contract is signed by the end of August. The current actual maintenance without the credit is $2,498.
