225 E 74th Street #4N

Perfectly situated on an idyllic tree-lined street adorned with beautiful townhouses within an esteemed Art Deco building, this expansive one bedroom, one bathroom residence is illuminated in natural sunlight from large windows in every room. The entryway leads one across refinished hardwood floors into a generous gallery area, large enough to accommodate a dining set. Off the gallery, an abundantly sized sunken living room affords ample living and entertaining space and provides light and views from the north and east. Down the hallway, the windowed galley kitchen is tastefully updated in neutral shades of white and grey with stone countertops and flooring, a subway style backsplash and quality stainless-steel appliances, including a dishwasher. The generously sized bedroom, which affords plenty of room for a king-size bed, is open and airy with exceptional sunlight streaming in from the North and East. Nestled between the bedroom and the kitchen lies the updated windowed bathroom, which is also neutrally decorated in hues of white and grey. Ample storage exists throughout the apartment, including an oversized closet. Though sections of the space have been modernized, great care was taken to preserve many of the original architectural features such as the charming arched doorways, inset shelving and baseboard molding. Located a few blocks from Central Park, 225 East 74th Street is an immaculately preserved and maintained 1937 Art Deco cooperative. Featuring a red brick façade with notable pre-war detailing, a canopied entrance and luxurious lobby, this six-story building provides an exemplary staff, including a full-time doorman and superintendent, an elevator, common laundry facilities, bike storage, individual storage for rent and a tranquil courtyard garden with seating. Co-purchasing, pieds-a-terre and up to 80% financing make this building accessible for a range of buyers. There is a 2% transfer tax split between buyer and seller. Pets are welcome. The building is conveniently situated near the Second Avenue and Lexington Avenue subway stations and multiple bus lines, including the 72nd crosstown bus.
