Property Description for 2 Beekman Place, 5-E

Epitome of Prewar Elegance! Boasting a gracious layout and extremely generous room dimensions, this fully-renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is brimming with prewar charm! An elegant entrance gallery leads you into the home's airy, oversize living room, which is filled with beautiful natural light via its southern exposure. The home's windowed eat-in kitchen is a chef's dream with all stainless steel appliances, gleaming granite countertops, ample cabinetry for storage, and a beautiful built-in banquet anchoring the dining area. Both quiet, sunny bedrooms are generously sized, and both bathrooms have been tastefully updated with modern fixtures and fittings. The home is further enhanced by high beamed ceilings, pristine strip hardwood floors, excellent closet space, and new high-grade windows throughout. The home also transfers with a private basement storage unit.

Built in 1932, 2 Beekman Place is a Rosario Candela-designed building with white glove service. Residents enjoy a 24-hour doorman, elevator operator, resident manager, elegant Art Deco lobby, private storage, bike storage, renovated laundry facility, building-wide Culligan water filtration system, bulk-billing arrangements for both electricity and cable/internet service for reduced rates, and an expansive planted roof deck with stunning river and city views and complimentary WiFi. Beginning on 49th Street and terminating on 51st Street, the coveted Beekman Place enclave is a serene, tree-lined stretch of stately prewar buildings, making one feel completely removed from the frenetic energy of the city, yet placing one within short walking distance of every residential convenience. Pets are permitted, as is up to 50% financing. Non-smoking building. Transportation is a breeze with the 6 train at 51st and Lex, the E/M trains at 53rd and Third, and the M50 crosstown bus on 50th.

Beekman Place | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Beekman Place is less of a neighborhood than it is a quiet two-block enclave just north of the United Nations on the far eastern edge of Turtle Bay. There is only one street that runs through the neighborhood, also called Beekman Place, that wraps itself around 49th Street and 51st Street.  

This bucolic little stretch of the east side has always been a cherished spot for those fortunate enough to have found refuge here. The noise and the street traffic from the city surrounds is virtually non-existent as there are no through streets in this neighborhood.  

The neighborhood composition largely consists of a few clusters of townhouses and prewar co-ops. The exception to the rule is the charming art-deco-styled Beekman Place Hotel at the corner of First Avenue and 49th Street and the two post-war towers, 860 and 870 UN Plaza that front the grounds of the United Nations.
