Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, resulting in a home that is as functional as it is beautiful. Though positioned on the second floor, the apartment’s rear exposure allows for exceptional light and a calm, airy ambiance. The open kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring stunning custom cabinetry that offers an exceptional amount of storage, paired with sleek stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher—perfectly suited for both everyday living and entertaining. The sunken living and dining area adds architectural interest and creates a gracious flow, ideal for hosting or relaxing in style. A separate and generously proportioned home office provides the flexibility today’s buyers crave, easily accommodating work-from-home needs. The bedrooms offers great corner windows. The spa-like marble bathroom is elegantly finished. Nearly 9-foot ceilings with crown molding enhance the sense of volume and refinement throughout. Newly finished wood floors and bright, tree-lined exposures bring warmth and light into the home. The apartment feels significantly higher than the second floor, offering exceptional privacy and a tranquil outlook—an unexpected retreat in the heart of the city. The building is a distinguished Art Deco cooperative with full-time doorman, live-in superintendent, laundry room, private storage, and a beautifully maintained residents’ garden—an oasis to enjoy year-round. Ideally situated on one of the Upper East Side’s most desirable blocks, you are moments from Central Park, the Q train, and an unbeatable selection of neighborhood favorites including Citarella, Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, and Target. Every convenience is right outside your door. The cooperative is flexible, allowing co-purchasing, gifting, parents purchasing for children and pieds-à-terre with board approval. Financing up to 80% is permitted. A rare opportunity to own a turnkey home in a prime Upper East Side location at an incredible value—this is one you won’t want to miss.
