Description

Spread out in a true 3-bedroom with prewar details like herringbone oak floors, high beamed ceilings, and a wood-burning fireplace. Glimpse Central Park and the western sky from your living room! The elegant living room and bright kitchen have large windows facing south and west for sunny days and a sliver of stunning sunset. The dining area is between the kitchen and living room for everyday convenience and also perfect for entertaining (add a leaf to the table and have 14 guests for dinner). There is a half-bath off the foyer for guests in addition to the 2 full bathrooms (the master bath is en suite). Basement storage comes with the apartment, and there is a laundry room in the building. The live-in super accepts packages, deliveries, and mail and delivers them to your door. The immediate neighborhood is known for its excellent public and private schools. With Central Park and Museum Mile just out your door, and Madison Avenue shops and cafes down the block, you are surrounded by the best of the Upper East Side. 75% financing is allowed. Pied-a-terre buyers are now being welcomed. Sorry, no dogs.

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.
