Description

Ideally located in a sought-after pre-war coop on the Upper East Side, this elegant building was designed by renowned architects, Treanor and Fatio in 1925. Conveniently located on the first floor directly off of the elegant lobby, this special home features two large bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom can easily be used as a large home office or a cozy den. An oversized south facing living room with a beautiful wood burning fireplace is perfect for entertaining or quiet enjoyment. Charming pre-war details abound and the southern exposures overlook the building's lovely planted garden. 222 East 71st Street is located on a beautiful tree-lined street in the heart of the Upper East Side. The apartment is in close proximity to all major public transportation, including the new Q train, and the best shopping, restaurants, and cultural institutions the neighborhood has to offer. The building is exceptionally well run by the trusted live-in resident manager. There is no doorman allowing for the exceptionally low maintenance: $1,542.80. There is currently a Capital Assessment of $256.58 and a Fuel Assessment of $136.84. With a little TLC, this wonderful property can be a wonderful home for years to come. 2% flip tax and up to 65% financing is allowed, private storage, laundry in the building, and pets and pied a terres allowed. A must see! *Some Photos have been Virtually Staged

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.
