Description

The board approval process will be very transparent as this is a co-op owned unit.

This is a sun-flooded high-floor south facing two-bedroom home with breathtaking midtown and downtown views. The gracious layout features an especially spacious entry foyer that leads into an extra-long living room with ample space for a proper dining area. There is an abundance of closet space and original wood floors in good condition throughout. This apartment features thru-wall air conditioning in all of the rooms. The windowed kitchen faces south and is adjacent to but separate from the living room. Both the kitchen and bathrooms are in good original condition. Washer/dryer allowed with board approval.

239 East 79th Street is a full-service building with newly renovated hallways and lobby. Pets are permitted and there is an extremely helpful staff including a 24-hour doorman. There is a magnificent roof deck that was just completed featuring comfortable and elegant furnishings including lounging, dining and reclining. The location is central and ideal, a few blocks from the 4, 5, 6-trains and the new Second Avenue Q-train. Pristine financials, management, and service have made 239 East 79th Street one of the most sought-after cooperatives on the Upper East Side. The unusually strong financial condition of this cooperative (boasting no assessments in decades and a large reserve fund), along with very stable maintenance, makes this a wise investment. No flip tax.

About Upper East Side

View All Upper East Side Listings

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.
