Description

Situated in one of the most, soon to be, beautiful buildings in the area is this extra-large renovated one bedroom home.The living room is so ample, that the owners were able to create a small area with a window that can be a den, office or little bedroom. The apartment has beautiful finishes and top-grade appliances. The kitchen boasts a Fisher Paykel stove and refrigerator (french door), Elkay sink, Beratzoni microwave, plus stone counter-tops, glass tile back-splash,and handsome white cabinetry with chrome hardware. In the living room, you'll find new modern track lights and a sleek built-in perfect for your flat-screen tv. Throughout are five-inch plank floors with custom molding. The closet space is amazing! A large deep coat closet upon entry, a deep linen closet and a huge full-wall walk-in closet in the bedroom. Facing East, you enjoy lots of blue sky, and a quiet home. The maintenance is exceptionally low, only $1,203/month AND includes ALL utilities, including ELECTRIC! This is a great feature and only available in a small amount of buildings in the city.It is also noteworthy, that this building has a history of few maintenance increases, as it gets excellent revenue from the commercial space below. The building is in the midst of getting a brand new facade, a beautiful new lobby, and new elevator cabs.York Towers is a fine co-operative with only seven apartments per floor. It has a wonderful new roof deck and a private garage (currently with a wait-list). It's located in a fantastic neighborhood minutes from restaurants, cafes, parks (John J and Carl Shurz), retail stores, excellent food markets, even a library and a post office. It's also convenient to public transportation (the new Q line, and the 6 line, crosstown M79 and M31), and a taxi line to downtown is across the street. You just can't beat this location! Come home to style and flexibility and to a one-bedroom that fits your growing needs.Pets and pied-a-terres welcome.

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.
