Property Description for 150 East 49th Street, 8-C

This spacious, beautifully renovated 2 bedroom/1.5 bath Turtle Bay residence in a quiet boutique elevator co-op is a tasteful blend of the best of yesterday and today. Combining the timeless elegance of original pre-war details like 9.5’ beamed ceilings, crown molding and hardwood floors with a smart, modern renovation that features custom built-ins, ample storage and a well designed open layout, it is definitely one to see! Upon entering the gracious foyer, you’ll notice the large coat closet and the way the custom built-in shelving flows into the generous living room. There’s a perfect alcove for formal dining, and a hidden secret bookcase closet ideal for holding shoes and accessories. The primary bedroom has expansive bright windows and again, those lovely prewar beamed ceilings. There’s closet space to spare, even for the most ardent clotheshorse. The large second bedroom with custom milled shelving and deep walk in closet is sure to please! There’s a windowed gourmet kitchen, notable with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and tons of convenient cabinet storage both overhead and below. A half bath powder room for visitors, a private cellar storage locker (for rent) and the thrill of central air-conditioning round out this terrific midtown delight. 150 East 49th Street is an immaculately maintained boutique elevator building originally built in 1925, with a live-in superintendent and a weekend attendant providing coverage 7 days a week. The building offers a shared central laundry room, two elevators, bike storage and residents enjoy a 100-foot-long shared patio with picnic tables and planters. An app-based intercom system allows for secure mobile access for packages and guests. Pets allowed with board approval. Pieds-à-Terre, guarantors, and parents buying for children are all considered, and subletting is considered after three years of occupancy. A genius location, equidistant from Grand Central, Rock Center and the Citi-Corp Center, offering a plethora of transportation, culture, dining and shopping experiences. Come take a look today!

Turtle Bay | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Turtle Bay is best known for hosting the world’s dignitaries at United Nations once a year as the world institution sits on the eastern edge of the neighborhood along the East River.

But this midtown location offers a lot more, a bustling neighborhood teeming with high-rise apartment buildings and an easy walk to the Midtown business district.

Over the past two decades, developers have assembled almost every corner development site along Second Avenue and have built straight up. Not much left to assemble.

Some of the more glamorous, and of course most expensive, addresses are in close proximity to the United Nations. Trump World Tower, which caused a big stir with area residents, in particular, Walter Cronkite, when it was built sits just north of the United Nations Grounds. 

In contrast to the proliferation of the residential highrise, Turtle Bay does have some lovely tree-lined streets between the avenues. In particular, Turtle Bay Gardens, which fronts both 48th Street and 49th Street between Third and Second Avenue has always been a haven for the rich and famous.
