High Floor Corner 1 Bed/1.5 Bath Condo with City & River Views

Quiet, sunny and situated near the top of the building, this rarely available 27th floor home with oversized windows offers beautiful views of the East River, Tudor City, the United Nations, Long Island City and more. This gorgeous residence features a gracious entry gallery preceding a large north-east corner-exposure living room with almost 35 linear feet of window overlooking the city. The living room is more than 20 feet long and almost 15 feet wide with a dining area and an area for a home office.

The beautifully renovated windowed pass-thru kitchen with a view of the river is appointed with custom lacquer cabinetry, stainless steel appliances including a Miele 5-burner cooktop with hood, quartz countertops and Italian glass tiling. With an abundance of countertop workspace, excellent storage and an oversized sink that accommodates an inset cutting board, this kitchen is well-designed for cooking.

The oversized north-facing bedroom easily accommodates a king-size bed, has a beautifully renovated en-suite Crema Marfil marble bathroom and large walk-in closet. The bedroom can also accommodate a desk. The powder room, finished in Crema Marfil marble, is located just off the entrance gallery.

Additional features of the home include gorgeous wood floors, a wall of closets in the entrance gallery, a spacious closet adjacent to the kitchen (which can also be used as a pantry) and central heat & air-conditioning. Sorry, NO PETS.
