Property Description for 308 East 79th Street, 12-EF

Impeccably Renovated - Brilliantly Designed Three Bedroom

BRAND NEW TO MARKET - In mint condition, this seamless combination of two large one-bedroom apartments is move-in ready. Located on a high floor in a full-service cooperative, Apartment 12EF offers three bedrooms, huge open-style custom kitchen, and two renovated baths with radiant heated floors, plus custom built-ins for thru-wall AC, and all LED lighting throughout. The current owners have designed the space to maximize room proportions for comfortable living and entertaining while creating abundant storage and multiple walk-in closets. Upon entering, an elegant foyer welcomes you. There is a massive walk-in coat closet/storage area designed by California Closets. To the right, all public rooms can be seen: a gracious living room with double windows; gorgeous windowed custom Eggersmann kitchen with top-of-the-line Thermador appliances including a fully integrated refrigerator, Caesarstone counter and waterfall; and a generous dining area able to easily accommodate 14 for dinner. Three spacious bedrooms are located off a private bedroom hallway. The master bedroom has a huge walk-in closet, a separate office space, and an exquisitely appointed en suite master bath with double sinks and a soaking tub. The second and third bedrooms have great scale and share a beautifully renovated bath. No expense was spared in the renovation of this incomparable apartment.

308 East 79 Street, an established cooperative built in 1928 and opened in 1929. The handsome facade is clad in limestone and brick. The lobby has stained glass windows, marble walls, and terrazzo floors. The building allows co-purchasing, gifting, and pied-a-terre ownership. Pets are permitted. Subletting is also permitted. Amenities include a 24 hour attended entrance, new laundry room, storage units, and bike storage. The building recently opened a garden and a state-of-the-art gym is expected to open this spring.

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.
