Escape to this hidden gem in the heart of the Upper East Side


Upon entering this perfect home, one is embraced by the lush garden-facing exposure and absolute silence, with all of the liveliness that Lenox Hill has to offer right outside your doorsteps. This one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment's prewar character and charm is emphasized with archways and crown moldings throughout. The state of the art eat-in kitchen designed by Poggenpohl features honed limestone countertops and Carrera marble floors with high-end appliances including a Sub-Zero fridge, Miele cooktop range, Stoves oven and Miele dishwasher. There is an additional garden-side sitting/dining alcove, readily convertible to office space. From the inviting living room and kitchen, one can follow the gallery-like hallway to the generous master bedroom complete with separate double closets and dual paned windows looking out to the tree-lined Third Avenue. This masterful apartment is completed by five spacious closets with custom shelving throughout and an updated bathroom featuring limestone finishes.


The Bayard House is a white glove full-service cooperative comprising a prewar classic colonial building (2E is in the prewar section) and a postwar 27 story tower. The buildings are connected by a glass walkway surrounded by landscaped gardens and fountains. In apartment 2E, one has the leisure of enjoying a serene escape and the feeling of a townhouse surrounded by gardens, while also having direct access to the tower's many amenities including a fitness center, roof-deck, bike room, laundry in building and on-site parking. This pet friendly and pied-a-terre friendly co-op offers a neighborly feeling from the full-time doorman, live-in super, and concierge service, with Morton Williams right at the foot of the building. Located quite close to both the Q and 6 trains as well as the 72nd Street crosstown bus, enjoy shopping a block away on Madison Avenue as well as a plethora of Upper East Side restaurants like JG Melon, Maison Kayser, Sushi of Gari, and Orsay.

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.
