Description

With great natural light, an eat-in kitchen and three exposures, this gracious 2 bed (convertible 3), 2 bath home is a dream in a fantastic Lenox Hill co-op.


The expansive residence begins with a gracious foyer lined with regular and walk-in closets leading to a sprawling living dining room with the preferred exposure in the building: north on 61st street, much quieter than other units facing Lexington. Wide art walls, designer lighting and hardwood floors add an air of refinement, while oversized windows on three exposures flood the home with sunlight and unimpeded open-sky views. The updated open kitchen provides excellent cabinet space, granite counters and top-notch stainless steel appliances, including a vented gas range. The adjacent breakfast room is the perfect spot for casual meals surrounded by the sights of the city.


The split-bedroom layout places the corner owner's suite alongside northern and eastern exposures where you'll find three large closets. One closet comes equipped with a Miele washer dryer while another is fitted with a California closet. An en suite marble bathroom completes the owner's suite. The second bedroom enjoys southern and eastern outlooks and a convenient location alongside the marble guest bathroom. Currently configured as a two-bedroom, this expansive layout could easily accommodate a third bedroom without sacrificing living space.


150 East 61st Street is a well-run fully staffed co-op with recently renovated common areas, 24-hour doorman service, and a live-in superintendent. Residents also enjoy laundry, storage, a bike room, a new fitness center, and on-site parking garage. This land-lease building's lease runs to late 2109 with very favorable terms and includes generous board policies permitting pets, 70 percent financing, pieds--terre, co-purchasing, gifting and parents buying for children with approval.


Nestled on a tree-lined street where Midtown meets the Upper East Side, this Lenox Hill home benefits from the best that Manhattan living has to offer. World-class shopping and dining line the nearby streets, Central Park is just three blocks away and transportation is effortless with N/Q/R/W, 4/5/6 and F trains all nearby.


*Please note this is a very favorable land lease building with lease payments made via the assessment ($1,301). In fact, there is a scheduled decrease in 2025 and all remaining adjustments are based on consumer price index (which is substantially less than many coops maintenance increases).

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.
