This beautifully renovated, pristine and generously proportioned pre-war one-bedroom, which features windows in every room, offers a sophisticated combination of pre-war charm, modern finishes and gracious proportions in the heart of the Upper East Side.

The windowed kitchen features sleek grey-and-white quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances, and an abundance of counter space and storage, and flows into the dining area. A private hallway creates a sense of separation and leads to the generously sized bedroom which easily accommodates a king-size bed with plenty of room for additional furnishings and features two deep closets. The stunning, newly renovated windowed bathroom features classic hexagonal floor tiles, shelving, a vanity top and windowsill, all made of Carrara marble, plus ceramic subway tiles, a Kohler tub and a Toto toilet. Additional features include through-wall air conditioning units with custom covers, beautiful hardwood floors, custom millwork, charming pre-war details, ample closet space throughout, and high beamed ceilings. 308 East 79th Street is a distinguished white glove prewar built in 1929.
