Description

RENOVATED PREWAR CLASSIC 6 ON THE UPPER EAST SIDE From the moment you enter this elegant high floor unit you are struck by brilliant sunlight streaming in through a wall of large south facing casement windows in the living room. Beautifully renovated to complement the prewar detail, the apartment combines traditional grace with modern conveniences and amenities. The entry foyer leads directly to the grand living room which features a wood burning fireplace and hardwood floors. Also off the foyer is a large dining room which leads to a pantry with a Miele wine refrigerator and Bosch washer/dryer. Beyond is the kitchen which is outfitted with granite countertops and breakfast bar, wooden glass-paned cabinetry and glass tiled backsplash. Appliances include a Viking Range and microwave and Miele refrigerator. The pantry also leads to a maid's room, currently set up as a comfortable office, and a renovated bath with a full shower stall. A hallway off the living room leads to the private residential area. The generous master bedroom enjoys the same sun-filled southern exposure as the living room and has two outfitted walk-in closets as well as a wall of built-ins. The ensuite master bath has been renovated with marble tiling and new fixtures and fittings. The second bedroom, currently used as a den, features a wall of built-in cabinetry which is equally amenable to bedroom use. Off the hallway is a second renovated bath which is lined with Carrara marble. 175 East 79th Street, located within the PS 6 school district, offers a full-time doorman, live-in superintendent and storage. Co-purchasing is permitted, as is one pet is per apartment subject to board approval. Located in the heart of the Upper East Side, the building is close to Central Park, public transportation, and numerous restaurants, bars, boutiques and shops. There is an assessment of $1,130.98 due in May 2019.

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, 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.
