Description
Welcome to 177 East 79th Street, where downtown loft-style living meets the elegance of the Upper East Side. This boutique co-op offers a private, keyed elevator that opens directly into your spacious, floor-through duplex home. On the lower level, an expansive living room is bathed in natural light, thanks to a full wall of south-facing windows. The kitchen, while functional, offers exciting potential for updates and can easily be transformed into an open-concept layout. This level provides incredible flexibility in design, with ample space for a large dining area that comfortably seats 8–10 guests — ideal for entertaining. Thoughtful built-ins and shelving throughout provide abundant storage, including a generous closet tucked beneath the staircase, perfect for stowing away large suitcases or taller cleaning essentials. Toward the rear of the floor, you’ll find a bright and inviting bedroom with open northern city views. At the top of the stairs is a convenient laundry area, cleverly hidden behind a stylish barn door. The primary suite enjoys sun-drenched southern exposures and features a spacious walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom, complete with a soaking tub, a separate large stall shower, and double vanity. An additional bedroom with northern views and a well-appointed full bathroom with a tub complete the upper level. Additional highlights include through-the-wall PTAC units in every room, beautiful hardwood floors throughout, and recently replaced windows (about five years ago). The building permits 75% financing and has a 2% flip tax. Pied-à-terre ownership is allowed, and the building is pet-friendly. Amenities include a part-time doorman (Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM–3:00 PM), a live-in superintendent, and an advanced video intercom system.

About Upper East Side
View All Upper East Side ListingsThe 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.
