Description
Make this elegant pre-war home in the heart of the Upper East Side yours. Generous proportions and architectural detail are the hallmarks of this high-floor apartment. The welcoming foyer with arched detail boasts two coat closets and gives way to the expansive living-dining room, with its high, beamed ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, and through-the-wall air-conditioning. The living room also features a wall of built-in cabinetry & shelving for housing an enviable library. The kitchen can be closed off from the entry foyer with a pocket door and has plentiful cabinetry and counter space as well as a dishwasher. The kitchen is open to the windowed home office, which can also be used as a dining nook. The oversized corner bedroom faces north and west and can easily accommodate a king-sized bed plus a home office, a lounging area, or work-out area. It has excellent light, beautiful floors, built-in book cases, and through-the-wall air conditioning. Adjacent to the original windowed bathroom and bedroom are two large closets. This impeccably run white-glove co-operative is staffed with wonderful full-time doormen and a resident superintendent. There is a laundry room, bicycle storage, shared residents' garden, and private storage units for which there is a waiting list. Located on tree-lined 79th Street, this co-op is surrounded by the restaurants, shops, and museums the Upper East Side is known for and is convenient to the Lexington and Second Avenue subway lines as well as the crosstown bus. 179 East 79th Street allows pied-a-terre use, guarantors, co-purchases and pets with board approval. The building allows up to 75% financing, and there is a 2% flip tax paid by the purchaser.

About Upper East Side
View All Upper East Side ListingsThe 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.
