Description

NEW PRICE ADJUSTMENT

Welcome home to apartment #A at 230 East 71st St.

This large 2 bed, 1 bath ground floor, garden level apartment is move in ready and perfect for those seeking absolute pin drop quiet solitude in a singularly unique garden oasis right in the best part of Lenox Hill on the Upper East Side.

The southwestern facing rear patio is visible from the living room as well as both bedrooms. Upon entering your new home via the private entrance foyer, the expansive apartment unfolds from the large entrance gallery, past the newly renovated, windowed, hybrid galley/open concept kitchen with breakfast bar and into the main living area, accentuated with brand new floors, 9 foot ceilings, crown molding and recessed lighting throughout. The newly renovated kitchen includes a 5-burner stove, dishwasher, French-door refrigerator, new solid wood cabinets and new quartz countertops.

Flanking either side of the living room are two large, well-proportioned king-sized bedrooms with ample room for additional furniture options and, like the rest of the apartment, feature crown molding and recessed lighting as well as exposed brick accents. Both bedrooms also feature ceiling fans, and one bedroom has a custom-designed closet.

This ground floor apartment is accessible either via the lobby or side entrance. Laundry, storage and a bicycle storage room are available on the same floor.

The building is across the street from the 72nd Street Q train stop, just 2 blocks from the 6 train, and just 4 blocks from Central Park. Within blocks of the apartment are numerous grocery stores including Grace's Marketplace, Morton Williams, Target and Food Emporium, plus a huge variety of restaurants, shops and gyms.

Built in 1929, 230 East 71st St. converted to a cooperative building in 1979 and is 6 stories tall with 59 apartments. There is a live in super-intendent, virtual access via video intercom, and package delivery in the building vestibule. 75% financing allowed as are pied-a-terres.

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.
