Description

Immaculate corner two-bedroom with huge balcony at the Georgica! Entering through a spacious foyer, one is immediately struck by the floor-to-ceiling windows and unobstructed city views facing north and east. Light-filled on even the grayest of days, this property has nine-foot ceilings and boasts all of the high-end finishes, appliances, and fixtures one would expect in the best of NYC properties. The entry hall, with coffered ceiling and custom lighting, leads to the open floorplan living space, with a wonderful indoor-outdoor flow for entertaining. The windowed chef's kitchen has Carrera marble counter tops, a breakfast bar, Miele and Bosch appliances, and two-zone wine storage. The living-dining room opens onto a private balcony large enough to accommodate outdoor seating and entertaining, and provides a wonderful place to enjoy one's morning coffee or evening cocktails with friends. The master bedroom suite has its own private entrance to the balcony, and has generous custom-fitted closets, including an enormous walk-in closet. The pristine en-suite marble master bathroom has a large picture window with motorized shades, radiant-heat floors, and heated towel rack. The second bedroom also enjoys floor-to-ceiling windows facing north and is accompanied by an extra-large closet with custom fitted cabinetry, and a second full bathroom. All rooms have motorized shades to manage the spectacular light that shines in all day, year-round. The current owners made many significant upgrades, evident throughout: this property is fitted with multi-zoned mobile device-enabled thermostats, multi-media outlets, motorized shades, solid oak herringbone floors, and nine-inch baseboard moldings. A Bosch washer-dryer closet and abundant closet space with custom millwork and hardware round out this spectacular property. Pin-drop quiet on a tree-lined street, yet with convenient access to all that the City has to offer, this is not to be missed for Upper East Side living at its best. This building has a tax abatement until 2021, at which point monthly taxes for this unit will increase to just $1,386/month. Designed by award-winning architects, Cetra/Ruddy, the Georgica is a full-service, amenity-filled condominium on a quiet, tree-lined street. With only 2-4 residences per floor, a peaceful oasis awaits. The building features an expansive landscaped roof deck with panoramic city views, outdoor kitchen and lounge, and separate play area. The Georgica has a 24-hour doorman-concierge, a well-equipped fitness center, children's play room, bike room, cold storage, and resident manager. Close to Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, great gourmet dining, and neighborhood shops. Conveniently located by the new Second Avenue subway with express service to Lincoln Center (57th and 7th Avenue) and Times Square; the 4-5-6 Lexington Avenue subway; and 86th Street crosstown bus.

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.
