Property Details
Description
Move right into this sun-flooded 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom at The Charles House, a highly sought-after condominium on the corner of 78th Street and Madison Avenue. The foyer opens into a spacious L-shaped living room with East and South exposures through oversized windows, built-in bookshelves and a separate dining area off the kitchen, which could easily be converted into an office or third bedroom. The windowed kitchen has an abundance of storage and could be opened up to the living room, if an open-kitchen layout with a breakfast bar is desired. Both bedrooms are generously proportioned and East-facing (one of which has an ensuite bath with a steam shower) and ideally situated at opposite ends of the apartment, offering privacy and flexibility for any lifestyle. A second hallway bathroom, in-unit washer/dryer, ample closets, and through-wall AC complete this lovely home. The Charles House is a pet-friendly, full-service condominium. Amenities include a 24-hour doorman, fitness room, garage, planted roof deck with sweeping park views, private storage, a bike room, and live-in super. Incredibly low carrying costs add to the ease of owning in this desirable building. Pieds-a-terre and investors are welcome. Please note, the listed monthly taxes are before the condo/coop primary residence abatement. This wonderful home is positioned in one of the Upper East Side's most desirable locations and is just moments from Central Park, the city's finest museums, restaurants and shops - an opportunity that is not to be missed!

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.
