Description

Impeccably Renovated - Brilliantly Designed Three Bedroom

BRAND NEW TO MARKET - In mint condition, this seamless combination of two large one-bedroom apartments is move-in ready. Located on a high floor in a full-service cooperative, Apartment 12EF offers three bedrooms, huge open-style custom kitchen, and two renovated baths with radiant heated floors, plus custom built-ins for thru-wall AC, and all LED lighting throughout. The current owners have designed the space to maximize room proportions for comfortable living and entertaining while creating abundant storage and multiple walk-in closets. Upon entering, an elegant foyer welcomes you. There is a massive walk-in coat closet/storage area designed by California Closets. To the right, all public rooms can be seen: a gracious living room with double windows; gorgeous windowed custom Eggersmann kitchen with top-of-the-line Thermador appliances including a fully integrated refrigerator, Caesarstone counter and waterfall; and a generous dining area able to easily accommodate 14 for dinner. Three spacious bedrooms are located off a private bedroom hallway. The master bedroom has a huge walk-in closet, a separate office space, and an exquisitely appointed en suite master bath with double sinks and a soaking tub. The second and third bedrooms have great scale and share a beautifully renovated bath. No expense was spared in the renovation of this incomparable apartment.

308 East 79 Street, an established cooperative built in 1928 and opened in 1929. The handsome facade is clad in limestone and brick. The lobby has stained glass windows, marble walls, and terrazzo floors. The building allows co-purchasing, gifting, and pied-a-terre ownership. Pets are permitted. Subletting is also permitted. Amenities include a 24 hour attended entrance, new laundry room, storage units, and bike storage. The building recently opened a garden and a state-of-the-art gym is expected to open this spring.

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.
