230 East 50th Street, 4-B

The living room and dining area of this elegant home have treetop views onto East 50th Street while the bedrooms offer south-facing views of the quiet and private garden of this cooperative. The gracious layout features a proper entrance foyer, a dining area adjacent to the kitchen and generous-sized bedrooms. There is a large half-bathroom that was added and is unique to apartment 4B. Some of the features that make this a truly remarkable prewar home include a wood-burning fireplace, 9-foot ceilings and beautiful oversized casement windows. These windows are being fully restored and the glass replaced with the most energy efficient type. The assessment for this, which is the first in over ten years, is being paid for by the current owner. There are thru-wall air-conditioning units in the living room and bedrooms.

This home is in pristine condition. The walls have been skim-coated, all moldings replaced and both bathrooms have been recently renovated. The kitchen is in excellent condition with updated appliances.

230 East 50th Street is an elegant and well-run cooperative with a full-time door attendant and a live-in resident manager. There are two units per floor at each elevator bank, creating semi-private elevator landings. There is a beautiful private garden off the lobby which is meticulously maintained and accessible to all residents of the building. In addition, there is a furnished and landscaped roof deck with dramatic views of midtown. An additional unique feature is a large private basement storage bin that is included with no additional fee. Pets are welcome and mail is delivered to your door each day.
