Description

3S is a generously large 'Classic 6' corner apartment in the highly regarded prewar cooperative 901 Lexington Avenue. This rarely available S-Line home offers beautifully laid out entertainment space and great charm. At approximately 1,691 square feet, it offers a tremendous opportunity for updating and creating classic Upper East Side value. Pre-war features include 9'6" beamed ceilings, original hardwood flooring, generously proportioned rooms, large windows, and custom molding. Of primary importance are the spacious and connected Living Room and corner South facing Library. Together these rooms offer great light coming in through oversize windows to an elegant, adaptable living & entertaining space. The library is easily converted to an additional bedroom. The apartment outlook offers verdant trees and street views towards the landmarked New York Armory. There are two original south facing bedrooms with large windows, ample closet space and ensuite bathrooms as well as an oversize staff room, which can be used as a bedroom, with an associated bath off the kitchen. Taken together, for future upgrading, the dining area, large kitchen and staff area show prime potential to combine and open the space for a contemporary eat-in kitchen and office area. Designed by George Mort Pollard, renowned architect of the Hotel Des Artistes, and built in 1907, 901 Lexington Avenue is one of the fine buildings that pioneered and established the Upper East Side. In addition to full-time doorman and elevator attendant, the building is equipped with bicycle storage, gym, private storage, and a laundry room. It is also pet friendly with board approval, and in-unit washer and dryers are permitted. Up to 50% financing is allowed. And there is a flip tax of 3%, paid by​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​​ purchaser.

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.
