Property Description for 345 East 69th Street, 13-E

This one bedroom, one bathroom coop is a rare find. The building is on a tree-lined street, with a wonderful staff, is pet-friendly, has storage, a landscaped roof terrace, and more. The kitchen and bathroom are tastefully, elegantly and functionally renovated. There is more closet space and storage in the kitchen than you see in your typical one bedroom apartment. More than enough for two people, or someone downsizing from a home. As you enter this unit, there is a very large hall closet to your left, and the kitchen to the right. This kitchen is great for someone who either enjoys cooking and entertaining, or just for one who wants a great looking kitchen. Its countertops are blue Silestone, with specs of silver. This lovely Silestone color combination enhances the stainless steel appliances and vice versa. The appliances include an LG stainless top/bottom refrigerator/freezer, a GE Monogram microwave/convection oven, and a coordinating gas stove. There are a generous amount of maple cabinets and drawers with the added bonus of having a 5 foot tall pantry. The color combinations give this kitchen a "hint" of country with yet a modern, organized, clean look. Above the sink and oven there are 5 glass cabinets, which have interior lighting, so that dishes can be illuminated. The cabinet glass is clear but has a subtle pattern, which is nice so that one can still see in, and get the illumination of the interior lighting, yet allow for a hint of cabinet privacy. The kitchen walls are tiled part way up, and there is a coordinating blue and white trim that ties it all together. There is an additional countertop at the far kitchen wall with open generous shelves underneath for any type of storage. The kitchen has a pass through to the living area and a countertop island, ideal for additional space to dine. The living area is gracious and can be configured in a variety of ways. There is currently a generously sized dining room table, a large sofa and coffee table, chairs and decorative cabinets. The main window in the living room faces east, but there is an additional window facing north, with open views looking up First Avenue. There is lots of sunlight, and the apartment is quiet. There is a wing which leads to the bathroom (on left) and bedroom (on right). There is an oversized linen closet as you enter the wing, just outside of the bathroom. The bathroom is renovated tastefully with a lovely trim flowing through the tile. It is spacious and comfortable enough for two people to get ready in at once, a rarity in a Manhattan one bedroom apartment. The bedroom is a generous size, allowing enough space for any size bedroom set. It has an enormous closet which takes up one wall of the bedroom, with loads of space for hanging and folded clothing. The bedroom has a large window and faces due east. There are wood floors throughout, in the same pristine condition as the rest of the home. This rare, generously sized, meticulous apartment is superior to others in it's category. There is a 2.5% commission offered to the buyer's broker. There is a 3.5% flip tax to be paid by purchaser. Maintenance is 49% tax deductible. Call for an appointment at 917-859-0125 or e-mail: [email protected]

Upper East Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.

With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.

Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .

There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
