Description

The Perfect Prewar 2 Bedroom


The most comfortable and beautifully re-imagined prewar cooperative 2-bedroom home in prime Upper East Side. Architecture firm Agencie has meticulously designed and renovated every corner of this gracious apartment for modern comfort while respecting the warm and inviting atmosphere of its prewar history.


All of the major rooms of the home look onto a quiet tree-lined street including the spacious living/dining room with an original stone clad wood burning fireplace, an intimate home office with custom desk and full height bookcase and the master bedroom suite with a large dressing closet and en-suite marble bath with radiant heat floors. These rooms are arranged enfilade resulting in a harmonious flow of space and a pleasant wash of shared soft northern light across the interiors through a total of 7 large windows. The open plan kitchen was designed by Henry Built, a custom craft and build workshop specializing in high-quality cabinetry. It is highlighted by a central island, Wolf cooktop and oven, integrated refrigerator, marble backsplash and brass-trimmed details. There is a formal entry hall, guest bedroom and bath with south and west facing windows, separate service entrance, washer and dryer, central A/C, waterworks plumbing fixtures and seamlessly integrated custom built-ins in every room by one of New York's most respected women millworkers - Real Fine Millwork.


120 East 75th is a full service building with full-time doorman, live-in resident manager, private storage (included with purchase), laundry facilities and bike room. Pets and pied-a-terre are allowed on a case by case basis. Monthly assessment of $171.79.

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.
