Description

Price reduced! This spacious, sun-filled, corner two-bedroom, two-bath home at 239 East 79th Street needs TLC, but the price reflects that! The massive south-facing living room is over 30 feet and includes a separate dining foyer, perfect for entertaining. The kitchen is partially open and remains in its original condition, fully functional and ready for a buyer's personalization. Recently painted and embellished with refined crown moldings, the apartment features attractive parquet floors throughout. Two generously sized bedrooms accompany two full bathrooms, one of which features a shower stall that requires updating. Through-the-wall A/C units offer year-round comfort. Some areas may benefit from renovations or updates, offering an excellent opportunity to tailor your space. A washer and dryer are permitted with board approval, providing added convenience—super-low maintenance, a motivated seller, and priced to sell. This impeccably maintained co-op features an elegant lobby and landscaped roof deck. Amenities include a bike room, pet-friendly policies, a 24-hour doorman, and a live-in superintendent. Conveniently located near transportation, fine dining, and shopping, this home offers comfort in the Upper East Side.
