Property Description for 230 East 73rd Street, 8-G
Upon opening the front door of this extremely sunny and spacious one bedroom, one bathroom home, the gracious entry hallway lined with huge walk-in closets is welcoming as it leads one into the large dining (or home office) area positioned conveniently adjacent to a windowed galley kitchen. A sense of old-world glamour is experienced with beautiful beamed ceilings and wrought iron railings ushering one down into the sunken corner living room, which affords grand space flooded with light from southern and western windows. The positioning of the living room is extremely quiet with pretty views overlooking a tranquil, landscaped courtyard. The decorative fireplace within the room enhances the charm and grandeur of the space. The whole living and dining area of this home is perfect for cozy quality time or entertaining guests as it affords a harmonious balance of feeling expansive yet homey at the same time.
Off the entry foyer to the west is a hallway with another large closet and the bathroom leading into a highly privatized bedroom. The bathroom is easily accessible to the bedroom but ideally located outside of the bedroom for guests to easily utilize. The bedroom is graciously proportioned with yet another walk-in closet and lots of light from a southern window. This area of the apartment is truly a serene respite.
On the iconic East Gate block designed by the esteemed Emory Roth, 230 East 73rd Street is an art-deco masterpiece built in the late 1930s. This exquisite co-operative offers a 24-hour doorman and concierge, spacious gym, central laundry, bike room, additional private storage and a lovely common courtyard garden. Washer-dryer in unit, pets and subletting with board approval are permitted. In the heart of Lenox Hill, East Gate is widely known for the stunning tree lights on the block every winter bringing cheer and joy to residents across the City! This neighborhood is not only peaceful but its incredibly convenient to fine dining, shopping, grocery stores and convenience stores. The best outdoor space and recreation can be found close by in Central Park and along the East River promenade. Transportation is seamless with the Q train just inches away, the 6 and F nearby and lots of bus options.

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.
