Strike the perfect balance between a soothing home environment and easy access to all the stimulation of the city, with this two-bed, two-bath Yorkville apartment.

Sunlight from Southeast exposures invites you into unit 5L, pouring across honey-blonde wood floors from windows at the opposite end of an airy living room. The entrance foyer greets you with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves on your right and a hallway and huge closet to the left. Immediate off this hallway is a generous galley kitchen, with a dishwasher and pantry. The next door leads to the spacious primary bedroom, charmingly outfitted with a parquet wood floor and built-in shelves flanking the windows. The primary bedroom includes a large closet and en-suite recently renovated bathroom, complete with marble tile on all surfaces and a large, luxurious shower.

At the bend of the hallway are an additional linen closet and built-in wardrobe, leading to the second bedroom and bathroom. This recently renovated bathroom also features marble and modern fixtures. The second bedroom is also spacious in size with windows sitting atop built-in cabinets.

Catty-corner to the bedroom's hallway entrance, another door leads straight into the living room, completing the smart circuit layout of the unit. Here you will find enough room to set up living, dining, and even a workspace if you so choose! More floor-to-ceiling bookshelves cover the wall opposite the windows. A spacious triangle balcony opens to the left of the living space, where you can create an outdoor lounging or dining space and enjoy the views of the East River and Gracie Mansion.

This co-op, built in 1952, is pet-friendly and furnishes residents with full-time doorman, concierge, storage options, gym, bike room, parking garage, and central laundry.

For more recreation, visit Asphalt Green's turf field and offerings for aquatic sports, tennis, and children's camps.
