Description

VIEWS, VIEWS, VIEWS!!!!! NEWLY RENOVATED! TURN KEY!! Spectacular East River, NYC skyline, and bridge views (south and north) are on display from every room of this beautifully renovated sun-filled 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath apartment on the 28th floor with your own private balcony.

This coveted "D" line features an oversized step-down living room, a large Southeast-facing balcony with protected landmarked views, an open windowed kitchen, a separate windowed dining area, and 2 split en-suite bedrooms, plus an extra powder room for guests. There are beautiful hardwood floors, floor-to-ceiling closet doors, custom crown molding and lighting, new PTAC heating/cooling units, and tons of custom-fitted closets throughout.

As you enter the apartment, there is a gracious entry foyer flanked on each side with 2 generously sized en-suite bedrooms, one facing south, the other north. The windowed kitchen, which has been enlarged from its original layout, has been opened into the dining area and comes equipped with Kraftmaid white cabinetry with brushed nickel hardware, GE stainless steel appliances, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Carrera marble backsplash, and granite countertops. The ideal layout provides an easy flow for entertaining from the kitchen to the windowed dining area to the gracious living room.

Both bathrooms have been thoughtfully renovated. The marble bathroom in the primary bedroom has a chrome Grohe rain shower head with a marble shower stall, a custom Toto toilet, a chrome Kohler faucet and sink, and a Robern medicine cabinet.

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.
