Description

**Just Listed**Gut Renovated**1 Bedroom + Home Office/2nd Bedroom**Pet Friendly**Co-Purchase, Gifting, Parents Buying for Children, Guarantors and Subletting OK**The latest residential offering at 425 East 79th Street in Yorkville. Residence 5C is a rare opportunity to purchase a triple mint, turn-key home with all the functionality of a 2 bedroom at the price of a 1 bedroom. "Pin-drop quiet" and overlooking the garden, this exceptional home provides approximately 900 square feet of living and was meticulously renovated by its current owners, with a previous dining room/den now fully built and converted to a functional second bedroom. Designed with entertaining in mind, the windowed open kitchen is replete with luxurious customizations: stainless steel appliances, generous cabinetry, large island with Quartz slab countertops throughout, custom mosaic backsplash, new sink fixture and lighting. The spacious bathroom features a custom vanity and is clad from floor to ceiling with light marble and a custom floor pattern. Other notable features include a dining area with corner windows, massive king-sized bedroom, ample closet space, customized entry foyer with built-in banquette and storage, impeccable dark wood strip flooring throughout as well as ornate crown molding from top to bottom. Impeccably maintained and abundantly staffed, 425 East 79th Street is one of Yorkville?s premier residential addresses. Comprising 186 residences over 14 stories, residents benefit from 24-hour doorman and concierge services, live-in resident manager, common garden, bike room, laundry room, beautifully landscaped rooftop solarium, common resident storage and on-site parking garage with discounted rates for residents. Guarantors, co-purchases, parents buying for children and gifting are all permitted, but must be primary residence purchases (no pied-a-terres). Pets welcome with board approval. Subletting is also permitted with board approval after 2 years of primary residency. Enviably situated on the north side of East 79th Street between 1st and York Avenues, this quintessential Upper East Side address is within close proximity Carl Schurz Park, John Jay Park and The Esplanade. Directly down the street is Second Avenue?s Restaurant Row which has blossomed into a gourmet diner?s mecca with a striking variety of classic bars, chic lounges, and all things gastronomy: Cascabel Taqueria, Balon, The Daisy, Boqueria, Luke's Lobster, The Meatball Shop, The Penrose, Five Mile Stone and La Pulperia are only a few of the many notable examples. Whole Foods, Eli?s, Fairway and D?Agostino are also neighborhood staples for traditional grocery and fine food shopping. For health and wellness, the building is close to The New York Health & Racquet Club, Crunch and CKO Kickboxing. The 6 train at 77th and Lexington and the newly opened Q-train on 83rd and Second Avenue provide plentiful transportation options. With the latter now in full operation, commuting to Times Square, Penn Station and Columbus Circle has never been simpler. A true life-changer for residents of 425 East 79th Street. Don?t miss it!

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.
