Property Description for 209 East 56th Street, 12-L

Rarely available, fully renovated, stunning junior one bedroom already converted! This unique apartment just came on the market and is a great find. This place features glistening hardwood floors, custom outfitted closets with space galore, a fully renovated separate stainless steel kitchen with gorgeous stone counter-tops, dark wood cabinets, and full size appliances. This apartment has been meticulously renovated including the kitchen, ceilings, living space, the creation of a large separate sleeping area with French doors, a great dining area, and a fully renovated bath! This building features a full time doorman with package delivery, laundry, and a rooftop deck. You are also located just a short stroll to the 59th street station where you can pick up the 4,5,6,N,Q,R trains or you can head to 53rd for the M & E train. Other than the fantastic location to great shopping landmarks such as Bloomingdales, you will also find that it’s just a short distance to Central Park and down the street from Whole Foods! Co-purchases and Pied-a-terres are allowed as are sublets after two years of ownership. An apartment this nice is rarely available, it’s priced below market value, and will certainly not last

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.
