Property Description for 150 East 49th Street, 4-C

No expense has been spared renovating this fabulous, pin-drop quiet, and inviting two bedroom home. A welcoming foyer greets guests and leads to a stunning, oversized windowed kitchen featuring beautiful granite countertops, tile backsplash, deep storage cabinets extending to the ceiling, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and separate adjacent Sub-Zero beverage refrigerator, a Viking stove/oven and microwave, and Miele dishwasher. A pass-through with breakfast bar connects this gorgeous, functional kitchen to the living space which showcases hand laid oak herring bone floors and warm dcor featuring sconces, decorative molding, beamed ceilings and arched entry ways. Every room in this home enjoys windows, even the half-bath! And all windows have been maximized by placing air conditioners through the walls and decorated with classic plantation shutters. All A/C units are hidden, along with the heaters, in lovely cabinets including additional storage. The windowed bath is also fully renovated in keeping with the pre-war style of the home, yet adding the modern luxury of heat lights and piped in audio. All interior space has been identified and maximized and closets have been enlarged and fitted and lit up for easy access. Deep storage exists; be sure to open every new, solid wood, oversized door to expose the coveted Bosch washer/dryer. This entire apartment has been completely renovated - even what you cannot see. The subflooring has been replaced and features heating in the living room. All wiring has been updated and hidden from view. Audio is piped through in stereo in most rooms including the bathroom and kitchen. This nine story, prewar elevator building is located in the heart of Midtown East, convenient to great restaurants and retail as well as transportation and Grand Central Station. Conveniently, trash and recyclables are collected on each floor. A free large storage locker (187 cubic feet) transfers with this unit. The building features video security, a laundry room, private garden and live-in super and is completing its early conversion to natural gas. The building allows sublets after three years. Sorry, no dogs.

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.
