Description

Welcome home to this recently renovated Two-Bedroom Apartment.

Residence 12A is a beautiful two-bedroom, two-bathroom home filled with abundant southern sunlight and stunning skyline views from every room. The home recently underwent a meticulous renovation, including new electrical wiring, plumbing, appliances, and fixtures. The flooring has been elegantly upgraded, complemented by custom-built cabinetry beneath the windows, tailor-made blackout shades, and modern through-the-wall air conditioning units.

The expansive open-layout living and dining area seamlessly flows into a thoughtfully enlarged kitchen, enhanced by an inviting breakfast bar. This chef-inspired kitchen features pristine white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a custom tile backsplash in a beautiful herringbone pattern, providing ample storage and preparation space.

The generously sized primary bedroom offers the luxury of an en-suite bathroom, comfortably accommodating a king-size bed and additional furnishings. It includes two large closets, thoughtfully fitted with a custom organization system. The second bedroom is also spacious and bright, with convenient access to the adjacent hallway bathroom equipped with a bathtub and bespoke cabinetry.

Storage is plentiful, with numerous closets throughout the apartment, including a generous storage closet in the foyer.

Washer and Dryer are allowed, subject to board approval.

239 is a full-service cooperative known for its low maintenance. It offers newly updated hallways and a stylishly renovated lobby, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The pet-friendly building is supported by an exceptional staff, including a 24-hour doorman, a live-in resident manager, and an in-house handyman to cater to your needs. The recently completed roof deck is a true standout, designed with elegant and comfortable furnishings for lounging, dining, and relaxing. The building also has an on-site parking garage.

Conveniently located just a few blocks from the 4/5/6 and Second Avenue Q subway lines, the building provides easy access to the best of the Upper East Side, including some neighborhood favorites such as Elio's, L'Incontro by Rocco, Lusardi's, Sushi Noz, and Flex Mussels. Gourmet foods are available nearby at Agata & Valentina and Citeralla, or a wider selection of fine foods is available at Fairway and Whole Foods.
