This rarely available AS line has been thoughtfully refined by the owners and is in beautiful move-in condition. The generous main room features new hardwood floors and a lovely corner window configuration that brings in excellent natural light, along with attractive northeast views. The separate kitchen is fully equipped with granite countertops, high-end appliances, and abundant cabinet storage.
The bright white bathroom is complemented by a private dressing area and finished with a stylish porcelain vanity and additional storage shelving. Three extra-large closets provide exceptional storage for a home of this size.
Charing Cross House, named in honor of Helene Hanff, author of 84, Charing Cross Road, offers full-service living with a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, 24-hour fitness center, and an eco-friendly roof deck garden with vertical green walls and sedum plantings. Perfectly positioned in the heart of Lenox Hill, the building sits directly across from the Second Avenue subway and is close to neighborhood restaurants, shopping, and everyday conveniences.
The unusually low carrying costs for a full-service Upper East Side building make this opportunity even more compelling, allowing you to enjoy the benefits of ownership, full-service amenities, and a prime Lenox Hill location for less than the cost of renting.
Pet-friendly and flexible, the co-op permits pieds-à-terre and co-purchasing, making this a rare opportunity in one of the Upper East Side’s most convenient locations.
