Description

Apartment 11F is a charming, classic pre-war one bedroom in the heart of the Upper East Side. With windows in every room, it is filled with sunlight and enjoys City views to the south, east and west. It has just been refreshed and is ready for your personal style.

There are 9' beamed ceilings throughout, original hardwood floors, decorative crown and baseboard moldings, built in bookshelves and plenty of closets.

The classic entry foyer opens into a beautifully scaled living room anchored by two oversized windows. There is a large eat-in kitchen with space for your desk overlooking the City for blocks. A private hallway leads to the bedroom which has large corner windows and easily fits a queen-size bed, two dressers and a seating area.

140 East 81st Street is a full service cooperative with a 24 hour doorman, live-in resident manager, fitness room with a Peloton bike, common storage, bicycle room, central laundry room and a garden for residents. There are 74 units and the monthly maintenance is one of the lowest in the area. W/D's and pets are permitted with Board pre-approval. A pied-a-terre is permitted, 75% financing allowed and there is no Flip Tax! With the City's best museums, transportation, shopping and restaurants close by, it is a Simply Must See!

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its quiet, 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.
