You're in for a pleasant surprise.

Did I mention that there are two O-V-E-R-S-I-Z-E-D master bedrooms with baths on suite? If desired, the formal dining room might serve as a third bedroom as there is a separate and distinct entrance for the kitchen. There's more to love than ever before. You'll fall in love with this unique home. Of course, there's a guest bath as well.

Conveniently located to public transportation you can grab a bus that will quickly bring you to the culturally rich neighborhood on Museum Mile Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Whitney, The Guggenheim, Neue and more.

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.
