Property Description for 319 East 50th Street, 12-J

Looking for wide open views around the clock? This is the studio for you. Don't miss our time-lapse video on StreetEasy's listing detail page.

Welcome home to this high floor gem in 319 East 50th Street's best and grandest studio line! Residence #12J is perched one flight beneath the building's apex with just the penthouse roof overhead, allowing it to remain blissfully free of noise disturbances from above. Unlock your front door and step into your gracious foyer (with plenty of room for a desk) before turning left through the original curved archway and entering your sun-drenched, quiet, impeccably renovated and spacious living area with northern exposure, with both eastern and western light peeking through! Beautifully dark-stained hardwood floors; distinct living, dining and sleeping areas (there's currently a queen-sized bed that doesn't feel remotely out of place or oversized for the room); two deep closets with excellent storage; four windows with quintessential, unobstructed Manhattan views; charming original pre-war details. It's all here!

The windowed kitchen was completely renovated and boasts quartz countertops, modern subway tiled backsplash, and brand new appliances including a full-sized stainless steel refrigerator, Summit range, and Bosch dishwasher. The cabinet doors, bookshelf and above-the-refrigerator cabinet are all custom and the airy bathroom is conveniently located off the main area, perfect for when guests are over or in the middle of the night alike. The owner is open to selling the majority of the furniture if desired by the purchaser.

319 East 50th Street is a superbly operated and managed prewar co-op, offering goodies such as a 24-hour doorman, full-time elevator operator, laundry room, and art deco lobby in a fabulous Midtown East location and in the exclusive Beekman Hill neighborhood. Subletting is permitted after two years of occupancy with board approval, and pets are welcome; maintenance is 54% tax deductible. An easy walk to the 6 train at 51st and Lex or the E and M at 53rd and 3rd, shopping of all kinds, fine dining and nightlife, and Rockefeller Center. Storage is available with a waitlist. Don't miss your chance to call this happy apartment yours; contact us to schedule a viewing today!

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.
