Property Summary
Description
Sun-filled and wrapped in extraordinary private outdoor space, Residence 19D at 201 East 79th Street offers a rare opportunity to enjoy gracious indoor-outdoor living high above the Upper East Side. This expansive 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath cooperative features oversized rooms, elegant proportions, and a spectacular wraparound terrace spanning the entire western and northern exposures of the home. Flooded with natural light throughout the day, the residence offers an exceptional layout anchored by a sprawling living room and formal dining area, both seamlessly connected to the terrace through multiple access points. The outdoor spaces are beautifully configured for entertaining, dining al fresco, gardening, or simply relaxing against open skyline views. A separate terrace seating area just off the living room creates an especially private and intimate retreat rarely found in Manhattan living. The windowed kitchen has been tastefully updated with custom cabinetry, stone countertops, Samsung refrigeration, and a full suite of GE appliances including oven, stove, microwave, and dishwasher. Both bedrooms are generously proportioned and enjoy excellent closet space and endless natural light. The primary suite features an oversized footprint, multiple closets, and an en-suite bath. The secondary bedroom is equally impressive in scale and flexibility, also enjoying direct access to the terrace. A powder room, in-unit washer/dryer, and abundant storage complete the home. Built in 1963, 201 East 79th Street is a highly regarded full-service cooperative ideally positioned on the northeast corner of Third Avenue and East 79th Street in the heart of the Upper East Side. Residents enjoy a 24-hour doorman, full-time resident manager, attentive staff, landscaped private garden, parking garage, laundry facilities, package room, additional storage, and pet-friendly policies with washer/dryers permitted in-unit. The building has also recently completed a transformative multi-million-dollar enhancement program including a striking porcelain tile recladding of the façade, upgraded mechanical systems, and beautifully renovated lobby, hallways, and garden spaces—thoughtfully modernizing this classic mid-century cooperative while enhancing long-term efficiency and ownership value. Moments from Central Park, Museum Mile, world-class dining, and multiple transportation options, Residence 19D offers an exceptional blend of scale, light, outdoor living, and prime Upper East Side convenience.
