Property Details
Description
Perfectly located on a lovely tree-lined block in the heart of Manhattan's Upper East Side, 52 East 78th Street is only one block from Central Park and near many art galleries and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The apartment has large south-facing windows, good light and outlooks which include sky and a peek at the iconic Carlyle Hotel. Even in this central location, the apartment is quiet and tranquil. A generous square living room easily accommodates a dining table. The bedroom shares the same pleasant quiet outlooks as the living room. The attractive updated separate kitchen has French doors. The bathroom has also been updated. There is a live-in super, part-time doorman (12-8PM weekdays, 2-10PM on weekends). The building is pet friendly, allows pied-a-terres and subletting after 2 years of ownership.

About Upper East Side
View All Upper East Side ListingsThe 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.
