229 East 81st Street, #Y

Welcome to one of the most charming buildings on the Upper East Side. Built in the early 20th Century, the building maintains a classic look with its partial brick faade and striking windows with decorative shutters. Just three flights up you will find our 1 bedroom gem.

Located on the quiet top floor, light pours in through the South facing windows and large central skylight.

Looking around the living room you will see the beautiful brick accent wall that draws your eyes upward to the unbelievable 10-11 foot high ceilings. The extra vertical space is well utilized, with multiple additional storage areas. The kitchen includes both a stainless steel dishwasher and gas oven/stove, as well as an ample amount of cabinets.

Continuing through, the bedroom has enough space to comfortably fit a full-size bed along with other furniture and also has a large built-in closet with additional storage space above. Certainly not to be forgotten is the Central Air conditioning system installed throughout the apartment, one of only two apartments in the building with this upgrade.

Right in the heart of the Upper East Side, the building could not be in a better location. It is surrounded by numerous restaurants and shops, including a Whole Foods and Shake Shack.

Journey only half a mile up the road to find yourself in New Yorks iconic Central Park. Transportation to the rest of Manhattan is incredibly convenient, with the 4/5/6 trains, Q train, and cross-town buses less then 10 minutes away from your doorstep.

Building amenities include a courtyard garden space, which is currently in the process of brand new renovations. This peaceful and private outdoor area is available for use by all residents.

The building also has an integrated intercom system and a live-in super. Pied--terre, guarantors and parents buying for/with children are all permitted. Cats are permitted but no dogs.

This is a rare opportunity to break away from the cookie-cutter apartments and make this piece of New York City history your home!
