Property Description for 235 East 49th Street, 8-G

East Side Gem: originally built as the New York Theological Seminary in 1926, this classic prewar, doorman, co-op has a rich history that paved the way to its modern day appeal. This bright and spacious one bedroom with home office graciously opens into an inviting living room and dining area with charming details including beamed ceilings and hardwood flooring throughout. Unobstructed Northern exposures in the living room and bedroom bathe the space in soft natural light throughout the day. The well appointed kitchen off of the living space features stainless steel appliances, marble herringbone tile backsplash, dishwasher, a breakfast bar, and ample cabinet storage. The smart layout flows effortlessly to the back of the apartment to the master bedroom, a windowed full bathroom, and the home office or nursery. The apartment boasts incredible storage space including a full wall of floor to ceiling custom built-in closets in the master bedroom, a large walk-in closet in the hallway, and additional storage in the pantry, and linen closet.
Residents enjoy a sensational, newly renovated, landscaped & furnished common roof deck with open city views, a part-time doorman from 7:30 am- 11:30 pm, a live-in superintendent, and a common laundry room on the second floor. The building allows pied-a-terres, co-purchasing, and guarantors on a case-by-case basis. Shareholders are permitted to sublease their apartment for a total period of two years during their ownership. Share the atmosphere of the neighborhood with the iconic United Nations, Chrysler Building, Waldorf-Astoria and the W Hotel. Surrounded by great restaurants and transportation, it is an easy commute to midtown's business district as well as Grand Central, and just south of the Upper East Side's world-class shopping. This convenient neighborhood enclave also has easy access to the East River Greenway - perfect for a waterfront stroll or bicycle ride. Sorry, NO PETS. Assessment of $105.39/mo. through 2022, for facade improvements.

Turtle Bay | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Turtle Bay is best known for hosting the world’s dignitaries at United Nations once a year as the world institution sits on the eastern edge of the neighborhood along the East River.

But this midtown location offers a lot more, a bustling neighborhood teeming with high-rise apartment buildings and an easy walk to the Midtown business district.

Over the past two decades, developers have assembled almost every corner development site along Second Avenue and have built straight up. Not much left to assemble.

Some of the more glamorous, and of course most expensive, addresses are in close proximity to the United Nations. Trump World Tower, which caused a big stir with area residents, in particular, Walter Cronkite, when it was built sits just north of the United Nations Grounds. 

In contrast to the proliferation of the residential highrise, Turtle Bay does have some lovely tree-lined streets between the avenues. In particular, Turtle Bay Gardens, which fronts both 48th Street and 49th Street between Third and Second Avenue has always been a haven for the rich and famous.
