Property Description for 140 East 83rd Street, 4-A

Perfectly renovated for modern living, this flawless two to three bedroom home in the heart of the East Side offers terrific space and ingenious design for the ultimate functional and joyful home.

Located on the southeast corner of 83rd Street and Lexington Avenue-in an impeccably run full-service co-op, is the move-in, mint condition two or three bedroom home you've been looking for.

The entry hall opens to an elegant 14 foot long dining room/library with floor to ceiling custom millwork for cherished books and special collections. A gracious 20 foot long living room overlooking Lexington Avenue is the ideal room for comfortable entertaining. Accessed through pocket doors adjacent to the living room is a study, play, or guest room which when open- dramatically extends your living space, and when closed is a discreet guest bedroom courtesy of a beautifully crafted full bed hidden behind white lacquered custom paneling. These three rooms together offer a wonderful open flow for larger scale entertaining or intimate living and dining.

The L-shaped windowed chef's kitchen is designed to cook and entertain in style with buff white Caesarstone counters, solid maple cabinets and open shelving, new stainless steel Bosch appliances, and a clever pantry to tuck away every appliance and utensil. A pristine windowed guest bathroom with tub -clad in Calcutta marble, a walk-in "urban stroller and storage garage", double coat closet and pantry/linen closet complete the public space of this smartly designed home.

Two spacious, quiet and bright bedrooms occupy the bedroom hall- the master with a luxurious en-suite marble bathroom with oversized step-in shower, and three custom closets that include a large walk-in dressing closet, a home office or wardrobe closet and a shoe closet. The second bedroom is easily shared for two and also offers a custom walk-in closet.

Every inch of this immaculate apartment has been crafted to create a seamlessly elegant, fresh and modern home with such fine details as solid white oak flooring, new thermostat controlled through-wall heating and cooling units in each room, polished nickel hardware, solid core doors, all renovated to a very high degree precision.

140 East 83rd Street, built in 1961, is a beautifully maintained full service co-operative with an elegantly renovated lobby and new elevators and offers such amenities as 24 hour doormen, resident building manager, central laundry, personal and bike storage. Located moments from shopping, dining, schools and express transportation and a few short blocks to the top public and private schools in the city.

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.
