Description

Walk right past the doorman into this charming home that encompasses a traditional, timeless elegance true to the original character ?of the building. Designed by Emory Roth and constructed by Bing & Bing, both are renowned, highly integral figures in the neighborhood, and in Manhattan. Set a full floor above the common garden, this home has the feel of a townhouse with a first floor entrance, and the privacy of being a floor above the ground garden. A gracious foyer includes a coat closet, and separates the eat-in-kitchen and the main living room. The residence is elevated one floor above the rear common courtyard, maintaining privacy, additional security, and quiet enjoyment. The windowed, galley kitchen boasts ample cabinet storage and counter space with room for a small table, ideal for casual dining. The large living room is separated by a non-load bearing wall, which many residents have removed to open up the floor plan, and features charming details including a working wood-burning fireplace, beamed ceilings, a walk-in storage closet, and a large oversized window. ?This? spacious room can easily accommodate a dining area and is perfect for entertaining. The smart layout continues to the well appointed bedroom which rounds out this home with two exposures, space to easily fit a king-sized bed, a built-in shelving unit, and an additional walk-in closet.

215 E 73rd St is a full service prewar co-op on arguably one of the most picturesque treelined blocks in the city. This building offers a recently renovated gym, full time doorman, a large laundry room in the basement, a common courtyard garden, storage, and bike room. With approval, one may install a washer/dryer within the apartment. The maintenance includes the electric bill. Pied-a-terres, and guarantor purchases are considered on a case-by-case basis.? ?There is a maximum of three sublets within any five year period? ?for ?shareholders.? ?This idyllic Upper East Side location is close to the new 2nd Ave subway entrance, is a short distance to the Central Park entrance at E 72nd St, excellent restaurants, and world-class shopping. If you are seeking a quintessential Upper East Side home, look no further.

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.
