Property Details
Description
At offer is a south-facing pre-war 1-BR home with renovated kitchen, a comfortable dining alcove, and beamed ceilings. With top brand appliances, namely a GE Monogram 36-inch refrigerator with water and ice dispenser, GE stainless steel range with center grill, a Fisher & Paykel two-drawer dishwasher, work surfaces well lit by under cabinet-mounted lights, and storage to spare, including a vertical pull-out spice rack, this kitchen is as functional as it is alluring. The living room dimensions make it versatile for interior design, and the A/C unit has been installed through-wall to ensure unobstructed natural light. In addition, 5-Bs layout includes an elegantly outfitted walk-in closet/dressing area off of the bathroom which itself has been renovated and features an upgraded vanity, oversized medicine cabinet, and Waterpik showerhead. A remarkable transformation is underway at 155 E. 49th Street, as this boutique co-op begins to benefit from its prudent use of assets. Conveniently located, this 71-unit building has a full-time d/m, additional storage (currently, there is a waiting list), card-operated laundry facility, and bicycle storage. Pied-a-terre buyers are permitted, though pets are not. Call to schedule your visit to this unparalleled Midtown East value.
