Property Description for 118 East 60th Street, 19-G

On the cusp where Midtown meets the Upper East Side is this high floor spacious corner unit with dual exposures, two proper bedrooms, and an additional flex space. Located in the full service cooperative Plaza Tower, Apartment 19G offers a sprawling sunlit residence perched atop the center of everything this coveted neighborhood encompasses.

The grand foyer of Apartment 19G serves as the central hub of this beautiful move-in ready home and greets you immediately upon entry. The combined living/dining room boast dual South and East exposures, ensuring sun floods this expansive space throughout the day. A balcony sits off the living room with brilliant southern exposure, ideal for al fresco dining or enjoying the warm summer weather high above the hustle and bustle of the city. The adjacent separated kitchen features upgraded appliances from GE, including a new stainless steel air-fryer oven with gas range stove-top, dishwasher, and microwave.

The oversized bedrooms are found neighboring one another on the north side of the home. The primary bedroom, on the furthest side of the apartment opposite the entertaining space, is pin drop quiet and has a wonderfully appointed ensuite bath that is complete with a spa glass shower. The primary bedroom boasts an abundance of storage thanks to its expansive walk-in closet and secondary French door closet. A spacious secondary bedroom neighbors the primary bedroom and enjoys the use of the second full bathroom directly across the hall that features a soaking tub. A third flex room sits off of the living room and enjoys sunlit views from its southern exposure. The ideal size for its current use as a nursery, this third room can also easily be used as a home office, gym, or guest bedroom.

Additional features of this light-filled home include central A/C that can be controlled year-round in the bedrooms, combined living/dining room, and third flex room, an abundance of storage thanks to the seven closets found throughout the home, and a spacious kitchen with upgraded stainless steel appliances.

Plaza Tower has a wonderfully central location, situated between Park and Lexington Avenues on East 60th Street. The building is set back from the main street to allow room for its semi-circular drive and Porte-Cochre and features a 24-hour doorman and concierge service, newly renovated lobby and hallways, as well as an updated laundry room. A bike storage room, live-in super, and 24/7 laundry access further rounds out the amenities of this full-service building. Plaza Tower's sprawling roof deck, featuring picture perfect Central Park views with tables and chairs, is perfect for entertaining company or enjoying sweeping views at the end of the day. Its prime location to the Upper East Side's "Restaurant Row" means you are mere blocks away from some of the area's best dining.

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.
