Description

Apt. 7A is a large, renovated, classic 6 front apartment in a highly respected Upper East Side pre-war co-op.

The apartment enjoys spacious city views and plenty of light from it's outlook onto double wide crosstown 79th st. The south facing large living room, master and 2nd bedrooms enjoy light and sun throughout the day.

At approximately 1,600 square feet, the generous layout includes a welcoming foyer, and large formal dining room opening directly onto the over-sized, beautifully proportioned living room. These connected rooms, with ceilings in excess of 9'-3" and an iconic decorative fireplace, are ideal for entertaining.

A large renovated kitchen, outfitted with stainless steel range and appliances opens up to a converted maids room currently used as an office with adjoining bathroom.

The apartment has been beautifully renovated with respect to traditional details, custom built ins, and luxury finishes in the kitchen and bathrooms. The classic, 1920's originally detailed casement windows have been retained in the living room and all other windows replaced to efficient, double pane building standard. The apartment is in excellent, move-in condition.

As shown in the alternate floor plan, this over sized classic 6 is very adaptable, and can be transformed easily into a 3 bedroom apartment by converting part of the large formal dining room to a bedroom.

The building service includes a full time doorman, service staff and a live in superintendent. There is basement storage on premises associated with each apartment. Guarantors have been permitted on a case-by-case basis and one pet per apartment is allowed subject to board approval. One assessment of $976.58 is due on May 20 2019. There is no flip tax.

175 East 79th St. is in the PS 6 School district and supremely convenient to all amenities of the Upper East Side including Central Park, schools, museums, restaurants, shopping, and public transportation to all parts of New York.

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.
