Classic architectural details such as arched doorways, high ceilings, and elegant moldings create a refined yet inviting atmosphere. One of the largest 1 bedroom layouts in the building, this apartment offers exceptional living for a price you won't find anywhere else in the area. Enter this bright home by stepping into the gracious foyer, complete with ample closet space and built-in display shelving that blends functionality with charm. A separate dining area across from the kitchen comfortably accommodates a large table, perfect for hosting dinner parties or having guests for the holidays. Just beyond, the sunken living room spans over 23 feet, creating the opportunity for both a lounge area and a dedicated home office. The oversized bedroom features corner windows that welcome in abundant natural light and offer nearly unobstructed North and East facing views of the city skyline. Facing the back of the building, the bedroom is pin-drop quiet, and can easily accommodate a king-size bed, dresser and even another work from home space, if needed. With a walk-in closet and an additional closet (2 of 5 (!) total closets in the apartment), organization is a breeze, and everything can have its place. Just outside of the bedroom sits the recently remodeled, windowed bathroom, conveniently positioned so that it can be accessed by guests without having to go through the bedroom. The bathroom features a Waterworks tub, blue granite tub surround, rainfall shower head and Grohe sink fixtures. The spacious, windowed kitchen is outfitted with premium Iceberg Quartzite countertops, stainless steel appliances from Fisher Paykel and Meile, abundant prep space, and handcrafted crisp white cabinetry - a practical and polished setting for cooking and entertaining. It also has a charming exposed brick wall, making it feel quintessentially New York. Built in 1938, 225 East 74th Street is an impeccably-maintained, full service, pre-war cooperative ideally located right between the 6 train (77th st) and the Q train (72nd st.), making transportation to and from home a breeze. Better yet, stay local and enjoy the best the neighborhood has to offer, including Citarella and JG Melon, right outside your door. This pet-friendly building offers a 24-hour doorman, attentive live-in super, basement laundry, bike room, a beautifully landscaped courtyard garden, and storage available for rent. A rare find this close to Central Park, the building allows up to 80% financing as well as co-purchasing, parents buying for children, and pied-à-terre ownership with board approval. Flip tax 2% - 1% paid by buyer and 1% paid by seller. This beautiful home won't last long so come and see it today!
