Description

Welcome to residence 8E at 212 East 48th Street, a spacious one-bedroom home artfully renovated by AD100 firm Charlap Hyman & Herrero. The apartment blends soulful interiors with modern upgrades, located in a pre-war (1924) cooperative on a historic Turtle Bay block. Enter through the charming vestibule area into a generous foyer with two massive walk-in closets. The oversized living and dining area is the centerpiece of the home, complete with decorative moldings, two windows, a library and wood burning fireplace.

This space is warm, private, and excellent for entertaining. The brand new kitchen is a nod to the Italian postmodern style and features stainless steel appliances and countertops, tiled floors, and plenty of storage. In the bedroom, there is a dressing room area with multiple closets, and a newly renovated windowed bathroom is light and bright. 212 East 48th Street is a pre-war cooperative building located in the heart of Turtle Bay neighborhood in Midtown Manhattan.

Steps from Grand Central, the United Nations, and major subways and buses. It was built in 1924 and designed by John H. Duncan, the architect responsible for Grants Tomb and Hotel Wolcott. Duncan’s most famous work is the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch in Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn.

The building has a beautiful marble lobby with arched French glass doors opening onto the building’s private garden, live-in super, central laundry room and private storage. Co-purchasing, pets, and pied-a-terres are all allowed with board approval. Note: there is a $722.84/month capital assessment until December 2026
