1601 3rd Avenue #5D

This spacious, sun-filled corner 1-bedroom condo, featuring desirable South and East exposures, can easily be transformed into a charming and functional 2-bedroom. The newly installed oversized windows flood the space with light and offer picturesque views of a peaceful, tree-lined block. Currently designed as a 1-bedroom, the apartment boasts a generous living room and a well-sized dining alcove, perfect for entertaining or relaxing. The kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances and pristine white cabinets, is complemented by an adjacent foyer with a wall of closets that doubles as a convenient butler's pantry for extra storage. The large bedroom is tucked away down the hall, offering a sense of privacy and separation from the main living areas. It features an oversized east-facing window with serene, tree-lined views and ample closet space. The bathroom, located next to the bedroom, enhances this private retreat, while an additional large linen closet outside provides extra storage. The unit includes through-the-wall AC and hardwood floors throughout. As part of the Ruppert Towers complex, the building offers full-service amenities, including a 24-hour doorman, concierge, barbecue area, communal garden, children's playground, laundry room, and bike storage. For added convenience, a gym with a pool and a garage are available. Electric and gas included. Cats are welcome, but sorry, no dogs. The location is ideal, with a variety of shops and restaurants nearby, including Whole Foods. You'll also enjoy easy access to public transportation, with the M96 and M86 crosstown buses, and the N, R, Q, 4, 5, and 6 subway lines just a short distance away.
