Property Description for 150 East 61st Street, 10-D

BRAND NEW TO MARKET Dream home perfectly located at the nexus of the Upper East Side and Midtown Manhattan, this MINT condition home is renovated to perfection!

THE APARTMENT
Fully renovated designer apartment is approximately 1000 sq feet and has open cityscape views. 2 bedroom, 1.5 home is currently configured with the second bedroom as an open home office/den. The living space and primary bedroom offer exceptional dimensions for open and airy living, and punctuated by the beautiful, bright open views facing west. Absolutely no detail has been spared in this gorgeous renovation, which includes an expanded en suite bathroom which accommodates both a stand up shower and deep soaking tub, double sinks and vanities and Toto Washlet electronic toilet.

Wide plank white ash floors accentuate the bright and tranquil space. The separate kitchen is partially open to the dining and living space, and outfitted with all top appliances. There are excellent closets and the marble half bath is perfectly situated and also superbly renovated. The apartment is outfitted with Wink lighting system. Please note this apartment can be sold fully furnished, with almost all items from ABC Home or Design Within Reach.

THE BUILDING
Unlike a typical cooperative, this building's by-laws are more similar to a condominium, offering shareholders flexibility in ownership. Pied-a-terres, co-purchasing and overseas buyers all permitted. The building has excellent financials and one of the best land leases in NYC: renegotiated in 2010 with terms locked in for 89 years with no escalations. Subletting allowed after a year, for a term of up to 2 years. Maintenance fully covers ongoing assessment. 24-hour attended lobby, fitness room, private storage, bicycle room, community room and central laundry. There is also a parking garage in the building. Pet friendly, too.

150 E 61st is a land-lease building, with that lease , until 2109 with no escalations. 3% flip tax payable by seller.This is an extremely well managed co-operative with solid financials.

THE LOCATION
150 East 61st Street is on a tranquil tree-lined street with picturesque townhouses, yet steps away from the conveniences and energy of New York, including Bloomingdales flagship, Michelin starred restaurants, Whole Foods, Equinox, endless shopping options, major transportation and a short distance to Central Park.

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.
