Property Description for 118 East 60th Street, 12-B

Sunny, spacious, and beautifully renovated, this corner one-bedroom residence enjoys open city views from a prime block of Manhattan's Upper East Side. The unit is in excellent move-in condition, offers an expansive floor plan, private balcony with views facing north and a second exposure facing west. The brand new meticulously renovated kitchen and bath, hardwood floors and outside balcony flooring make this into a spectacular home.
Upon entry through a welcoming foyer gallery, the grand 31 foot living room is large enough to be divided into living/dining space and opens to your private balcony where you can sit, relax and unwind. A separate hall leads to the immaculate bathroom and over-sized master bedroom showered in daylight. The windowed kitchen is equipped with new sleek, high-end appliances including a dishwasher, range/oven and refrigerator. The unit is bright and receives a lot of sun-light. The apartment has more than enough closets with 5 and one is a huge walk-in.
The Plaza Tower, built in 1964, is one of the premier white-glove cooperatives on the Upper East Side, nestled between Park and Lexington Avenues on East 60th Street. There is a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a common roofdeck with panoramic views of Central Park, and impressive marble lobby and pristine semi-circular driveway with fountain at the entrance. Other amenities include an adjacent garage, central laundry, a package room, common storage, and bike storage.
118 East 60th Street is situated between some of the best shopping and restaurants in the world, including prime shopping at Bloomingdale's and Bergdorf Goodman's, and high-end dining at restaurants such as Il Mulino, Avra, Vaucluse and Harry Cipriani. If this is not enough for a resident, the escape into Central Park is just a stone's throw away, as well as express subway stops to take one wherever in the city they may please.

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.
