Description

Apartment 11E is a bright and inviting pre-war one bedroom apartment which sits up high in a classic Upper East Side cooperative. Each of the home's windows feature unobstructed northern views and great light. Inside the apartment is just as charming as the cityscape it looks out to--9-foot beamed ceilings cap the apartment, while beautiful hardwood floors rest at its feet. Everything that a perfect pre-war home needs, this apartment has: fantastic closet space, a large bedroom, a sizable living room, an eat-in kitchen, lovely original details and VALUE.

Enter into a lovely formal foyer, complete with coat closet, which connects the three different rooms. On your left is the spacious living room, where you have enough room to add an office nook (with a view) if you so desire. Straight ahead is the lovely windowed eat-in kitchen with handsome original cabinets and a new stainless steel stove. Completing the apartment tour, you'll find the king-size bedroom, featuring a walk-in closet and another closet.

229 East 79th Street is a full-service cooperative with a renovated lobby and 6 apartments per floor. A 24-hour doorman, live-in super, and porters staff the building. There is a furnished and landscaped roof deck, laundry and bike room. 70% financing is allowed. Guarantors and pied-a-terres are case-by-case with board approval. Pets are allowed with board approval as well.

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.
