39 E 79TH Street #2A

From the semi-private landing, one enters this extraordinary three bedroom apartment at 39 East 79th Street. Large windows, facing south and west, dominate the living room, which is 28'5" by 18'1", to create a light flooded and gracious entertaining space. High ceilings (9'5") throughout this terraced apartment make it a true gem on the Upper East Side in one of our finest buildings. The formal dining room overlooks a huge, 47'10" by 9'3", outdoor space, which is shaded and cool in the summer and which provides entertaining space morning, noon, or night. There are three well-proportioned bedrooms each with its own bath. There is a kitchen and laundry room (formerly maid's room) and separate bathroom that could be combined to make a large eat-in-kitchen. This apartment is a great opportunity for anyone who is interested in a space which can be easily enhanced and updated for maximum enjoyment. In addition to the gracious apartment, there is an additional dividend; a first floor private office space just off the lobby. It is one of only three such spaces in the building. The extraordinary low cost of maintenance in this building make it a compelling choice when considering the options to own a spectacular apartment on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Located within the "Museum Mile," this apartment is within a short distance of many museums and cultural institutions. The multiplicity of educational institutions in the area from kindergarten through college and the proximity to the marvelous Central Park of New York are further enhancements of this apartment's location. There are no shortage of restaurants, of every description and of the highest quality. Transportation is at its best at 79th and Madison. The crosstown bus provides the fastest way to reach the West Side of Manhattan. The Madison Avenue Bus and The Fifth Avenue bus are the consummate means of transportation for anyone going downtown or uptown from this Upper East Side paradise.
