Property Description for 160 East 65th Street, 15-A

A stunning, elegant, newly renovated designer corner junior 1-bedroom gem in a classic East 65th Street Co-op!

This stylish home has been thoughtfully and meticulously reconfigured to perfection. It embraces an open concept and is surrounded by oversized windows facing both east and north.

Enter into the open living/dining area, which is graced with dark taupe wide-plank Mirage floors. To your right are two fine handcrafted closets. The first is for coats and shoes. The other includes a wine rack and food pantry for all your gourmet needs. To your left is the pristine, modern open kitchen, which boasts a breakfast bar, white quartz countertops, and sleek, customized shaker cabinets. It's complimented by high-end stainless-steel appliances:
-Bertozzoni Range
-Liebherrr Fridge
-Miele Dishwasher
-Haier Microwave

The large dining area is perfect for entertaining. From there, glide into the wide, gracious living space, which is currently furnished with two comfortable large-scale Chaddock sleeper sofas (which may be purchased separately). Each transforms into king-sized bed.

Off the entertaining area is the sizeable window dressing area organized with California closets and custom cabinetry. Continue from there to the spa-like bath, which has been beautifully finished with Mother of Pearl and Thassos marble tile and a designer TOTO heated toilet with spa features.

Throughout the home you will find additional designer touches, like LED lights, fine hardware, Omexco wallpaper, Hunter Douglas Pirouette shades, and Kravet fabric drapes. The home also has two new AC units to keep you at just the right temperature.

The Phoenix, designed by famed architect Emery Roth, is a white glove luxury cooperative with a glass canopy and grand lobby overlooking a serene garden. It has a full-time concierge, 24-hour doorman, live-in resident-manager, laundry room, bike and storage room (both on waitlists), and outdoor courtyard. The garage can be easily accessed through the building and offers preferential monthly rates for shareholders. Pets and pieds-a-terre are allowed, as are washers/dryers with board approval. The co-op is situated in arguable the best east-side area, with easy access to parks (Central Park and Andrew Haswell Green Park), food shopping (Morton Williams), fine and trendy restaurants (Daniel, The East Pole), and transportation (near the FNQR46 subway lines, the crosstown bus stop, and several Citi Bike stations).

If you want it all, but do not want to renovate to get it, this designer home has your name on it. Call me to see it now and be home.

Note: 2% flip tax paid by seller. Current assessment of $1.34/share/year. If this is your primary residence and you take the building's tax abatement, the abatement will offset the assessment.

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.
