Property Description for 120 East 79th Street, 14-D
Fresh loft-like take on a classic Upper East Side eight room apartment.
Apartment has north and south exposures providing sun in every room. Separation of public and private space creates great flexibility; host dinner for 18, screen a movie with friends, or retreat into bedroom wing to finish your book. Terraces at both ends of the apartment enhance light and open city views.
A large, private master bedroom has an en suite bathroom and office. Opposite side of apartment contains two additional bedrooms that accommodate large beds and desks. Situated between the master bedroom and secondary bedrooms, an expansive den can also serve as a fourth bedroom, guest room or game room. The secondary bedrooms share a bathroom, and there is a powder room for guests.
This apartment was designed for entertaining. On the south side of the apartment, overlooking the Upper East Side Historic District, are the living room and dining room, with an open kitchen. A large expanse of glass keeps the apartment filled with light, yet it is a quiet oasis from the city. A terrace runs the full length of the living room and dining room, and is outfitted with an irrigation system and lighting.
With an enormous amount of closet and storage space, you will be able to easily maintain a serene, clutter-free space. There is a washer dryer in the apartment, near the bedrooms.
The building has full time doormen, porters and a live-in super. Pets and pieds a terre are permitted at the discretion of the board. The building has completed and paid for major capital projects, including replacing the passenger and service elevators, converting to natural gas, local law eleven work on all four facades of the building, bringing additional power from the street and refurbishing the gym. FIOS and Spectrum are available in the building, and the building provides storage bins, bike room, gym and laundry room.
Showings by appointment with 24 hours notice.

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.
