Description

Move right in to this spacious, impeccably renovated 1-bedroom (convertible 2) on the top floor of a full service, post-war cooperative on Fifth Avenue directly across from Central Park. Generous entry foyer leads to the sunny living room with sky-filled views to the South that provide amazing natural light throughout the day. The open floor plan is conducive to modern living and entertaining. Designer kitchen has Bosch stainless steel appliances, Caesarstone countertops and a generous island with storage underneath. Marble bath has a vanity w/storage and high-end tub/shower combination. A professionally outfitted walk-in closet adds to the comfort of the king sized bedroom. Through-the-wall A/C units are housed in custom cabinetry and there are wood doors, floors and recessed lighting throughout. Apartment 12E transfers with a basement storage space. Twelve Seventy Fifth Avenue is a well established, financially sound coop that has a 24-hour attended lobby, a live-in resident manager, central laundry and a social room in the basement that can be reserved for private gatherings. Utilities (heat/hot water/gas/electric) are included in the low monthly maintenance- there is an additional $20 per month charge for A/C usage. This is a dog-friendly coop that permits pied-a-terre ownership, gifting and financing up to 80%. Over the past 3 years, upgrades have included a new roof, new windows and a new boiler room. Plans are underway for a lobby & facade renovation, garden redesign and handicap ramp. The building recently became smoke-free as per NY Local Law 147.

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
