Description

This brand new, fully renovated 1BR/1BA apartment is now for sale and the lucky buyer can move right in. As the saying goes, “Just bring your toothbrush!” Featuring brand-new, wide-plank oak floors and an abundance of closet space, this home was custom-designed for today's discerning buyer. The carefully constructed layout allows for entertaining in the living room and maximizes bedroom privacy. Waking up to the breathtaking open views south from the bedroom is a wonderful way to start each day! The smart open kitchen features Caesarstone counters, a herringbone marble backsplash, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, including gas range, microwave and dishwasher all by Bosch, as well as a tall Liebherr refrigerator. Windowsills in the living room and bedroom were finished with the same chic Caesarstone as the kitchen – another example of the thoughtful renovation. The pristine white bathroom, outfitted with new Kohler fixtures, has a beautiful marble floor in a classic basketweave pattern and a recessed Robern medicine cabinet and vanity to maximize storage. 440 East 79th Street is a well-established, pet-friendly co-op in a particularly charming section of the Upper East Side. Amenities include a 24-hour doorman, laundry room, fitness room, bike room, furnished roof deck, on-site parking, and live-in resident manager. Pieds-à-terres are permitted. The building is conveniently located near the new Q subway, M79 bus, and FDR Drive, as well as some of the city's best parks, restaurants, shops, and gourmet food markets.

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.
