Description

This two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom dazzles with custom finishes, private outdoor space, and partial river views in a revered, full-service Yorkville cooperative. A gracious marble foyer flanked by California closets with premium doors and hardware nods to the exceptional style and convenience found throughout this move-in ready showplace. Beautiful flooring, millwork, and hardware are carefully matched to provide a consistent design aesthetic. The sunken carpeted living room invites you to relax and unwind alongside custom built-ins by Wolf Cabinet Shop, featuring extensive lighting, electrical and A/V hookups. Step onto the south-facing terrace to take in lovely neighborhood views and a glimpse of the East River and Roosevelt Island. The marble dining room welcomes lavish entertaining with elegant crown moldings, baseboards, and built-in storage. In the adjacent windowed kitchen, you'll find custom Anigre cabinetry and appliance panels, black granite counters and backsplashes, and a fleet of GE Profile appliances, including a four-burner cooktop, convection oven, French door refrigerator, dishwasher, and built-in microwave. A stylish powder room adds convenience and style with black granite vanity, brass hardware and gold wallpaper, crown molding, and sconces. The desirable split-bedroom layout places the first bedroom along the southern exposure, where you'll find floor-to-ceiling closets, three bright windows facing south and east, Anigre and mahogany millwork and marble sills. The en suite bathroom impresses with floor-to-ceiling marble, designer wallpaper, handsome sconces and a large shower. Across the apartment, the north-facing bedroom boasts parquet floors, reach-in and walk-in California Closets, a mahogany and maple wall unit, and a chic en suite bathroom trimmed with forest marble, mahogany cabinetry and a roomy tub/shower. This home's extensive smart home features include Lutron lighting with brass wall plates, in-wall music jacks and integrated 5.1 sound, A/V connections and speaker prewiring, and a home security system with contact and motion alarms. Ceilings throughout the home have been skim-coated, and HVAC units feature custom covers. Asten House is a white-glove postwar cooperative where residents enjoy 24-hour doorman and concierge service, live-in building manager, a grand marble lobby, state-of-the-art fitness center, residents' lounge, laundry and a 24-hour attended garage accessible from within the building. Pets, including dogs under 35 lbs., are permitted with board approval. You're surrounded by outstanding Upper East Side amenities and spectacular waterfront outdoor space on this Yorkville block. Foodies will love the direct access to Morton Williams, Agata & Valentina, Dorian's Seafood Market and the revered Ottomanelli Bros. butcher shop. Wonderful Carl Schurz Park, John Jay Park and the East River promenade offer riverfront leisure and recreation.

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.
