Description

PREWAR SUN-FILLED CORNER TRUE TWO BEDROOM

Welcome home to this renovated South-facing prewar beauty, with nine foot ceilings, pristine oak hardwood floors, 1.5 bathrooms and a private balcony. Living and dining combine effortlessly in the oversized 22 foot living room, with access to a balcony with open views across East End Avenue, to Carl Schurz Park and the East River.

The open kitchen with breakfast bar is outfitted with granite counters, ceiling-height wood and glass cabinetry with soft close drawers and stainless appliances including a dishwasher and Viking 4 burner gas range and hood. A double deep closet off the entrance gallery provides additional pantry storage.

Privately situated in their own wing are two bedrooms. The Master faces South to the side street and enjoys a windowed en suite half bath. The second bedroom is queen sized, receives bright Eastern light and overlooks the beautifully manicured rear garden of 180 East End Avenue. Accessible from all rooms is a renovated windowed marble hall bath with Kohler hardware and soaking tub, pedestal sink and Toto toilet.

Additional niceties include: four floor to ceiling closets; base and crown moldings; custom radiator covers; recessed lighting; Lutron light controls; and Friedrich through wall air conditioning units in all rooms.

This boutique cooperative, built in 1905, has recently undergone upgrades including a new elevator, renovated common hallways and introduction of a mobile intercom system - never miss a delivery or visitor again! In addition, there is central laundry and private storage cages available for rent. Located on a tree-lined side street, steps from the new Soundview Ferry Landing, Gracie Mansion and the Carl Schurz Park, dog run and river promenade, and situated among many of the Upper East Side's finest schools, restaurants and shops, including Fairway and Whole Foods Market.

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.
