Property Description for 160 East 65th Street, 31-C

VIEWS, SPACE AND LIGHT--HIGH-FLOOR TWO BEDROOM TRIPLE MINT BEAUTY

You will love the breathtaking views and sunlight in this beautifully renovated "six rooms into five" apartment. Originally a three bedroom home, the former third bedroom has been incorporated into the sunny, double-sized living room featuring south facing open views of the city. Perfect for entertaining, the living room incorporates a wet bar, wine fridge, and a wall of built-ins and is large enough to add a dining area.

Enter the gracious entry gallery, and see a wide open expanse from South to North. You can see all the way across Central Park to the West side skyline in the master and guest bedrooms. Both the master and the second bedroom are corner rooms with double exposures and gorgeous views. The master faces south and west, and the guest bedroom faces north and west. The second bedroom would also be perfect as a large den or home office. The formal dining room is currently being used as a third bedroom.Decorated by award winning designer, Patrick Lonn, whose recent projects include residences at The Baccarat and 20 East End Avenue, the apartment has been renovated to perfection. There are new marble ensuite baths in both bedrooms, plus a lovely powder room. The renovated, windowed kitchen has top of the line appliances, including a Viking range, Gaggenau refrigerator, and custom wood cabinetry. This beautiful home features oversized new windows, crown moldings, a Bosch washer/dryer, custom lighting, parquet floors, built-ins, and a sound system throughout. There are plentiful custom closets including a huge walk-in closet in the master bedroom.

The Phoenix, designed by Emery Roth & Sons, is a white glove luxury cooperative building, featuring a landscaped entrance, a striking new glass canopy, and a spacious lobby with a lush garden. The building has a full time door attendant and concierge, live-in resident manager, bike room, and private storage. The attended garage, with direct access through the building, offers preferential monthly rates for shareholders. The building is Pet Friendly, and Pied a Terres are permitted. It is ideally located on a lovely tree-lined street along with numerous townhouses in one of New York City's most desirable neighborhoods, the Upper East Side, close to shopping, restaurants, Central Park, entertainment, and major transportation. It is just minutes from multiple subway lines, including the 3rd Avenue entrance of the new Second Avenue Subway.

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.
