Description

If you prefer pre-war to pre-fabricated, look no further than 315 East 68th Street. This stylish Art Deco coop blends the best of pre-war detail with 21st century amenities. Inside, #12B begins with an elegant entry foyer and arched doorways. With nearly nine-foot beamed ceilings and both western and northern exposure, this airy apartment is bright at all hours. Beneath your feet are beautiful inlaid wood floors, and the unit is pin-drop quiet after being fitted with top-quality city-quiet windows. The eat-in kitchen includes granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and a built-in window seat which serves as a perfect breakfast nook. The spacious living room has a wall of built-in bookcases, and best of all, a wood-burning fireplace. The corner bedroom easily fits a king-sized bed with nightstands and a desk. The storage is exceptional for a pre-war apartment: there are five huge closets, all with built-in shelving, including an enormous walk-in which is seven feet deep. The building itself is a classic coop notable for its serene entry garden, gorgeous lobby, and landscaped roof deck with fabulous views. The staff are phenomenal and include full-time doormen and a live-in resident manager. Other amenities include a fitness room, children's playroom, laundry room, dry cleaner/tailor, and bike storage. Additional storage is available. Pets, pied-a-terre, and co-purchasers permitted. Washer/dryers are permitted in unit with board approval. Outside, the best of the Upper East Side is at your fingertips. The building is close to neighborhood favorites like Serena's, Donna Margherita, and Maya's; convenient to numerous grocery stores and pharmacies; minutes from Bloomingdales, and much more. If you must leave the neighborhood, the subways are seconds away: take your pick from the Q, 6, or F, all within a few blocks. Call today and call 68th Street home.

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.
