Description

Bright, spacious and generously proportioned, this elegant, classic six-room apartment is perched high over 79th Street with open views and a beautiful wrap terrace.

A gracious entrance foyer leads to a dramatic sunken living room, flooded with northern light and featuring built-in bookcases and a wood-burning fireplace. The adjacent corner dining room is expansive -- ideal as either a grand entertaining space or sprawling den/media room -- with access to the outdoor terrace. The well- equipped, windowed eat-in-kitchen accommodates ample storage as well as a charming seating area overlooking the terrace. There is also a sunny staff room adjacent to the kitchen with en suite bath, which could serve as an office or third bedroom.

The primary and secondary bedrooms are located off a private hallway, and feature generous proportions, ample closet space and en suite, marble bathrooms. The primary bedroom also has its own private terrace.

Other features of this residence include high ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, through-wall air conditioning and Miele washer/dryer.

180 East 79th Street is a highly regarded, full-service pre-war cooperative ideally located in the heart of the Upper East Side. There is a fitness room, bicycle storage and common laundry room. Private storage transfers with the apartment. The building allows 50% financing, as well as pets and pieds-a-terre with board approval.

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.
