HEROIC RENOVATION - HEROIC SCALE - HEROIC VALUE* PETS, PIED A TERRES, GUARANTORS, GIFTS & BUYING-FOR-ANOTHER ALL WELCOME HERE (case by case) *A Longterm, Favorable Land-lease (2070) Makes Buying Here More Affordable Feeling a bit priced out of Manhattan? Tired of cutting corners and sacrificing a stellar location and high quality living just to make the ends meet? Wish you could have an affordable, freshly renovated, over-scaled residence in a full service building — all in a super prime, coveted residential neighborhood with all the beauty and conveniences you deserve? Well, here is your solution. This large, rare, stunningly designed and renovated-to-the-studs residence gives you a big, rich life at a reasonable acquisition price. You get a supreme perch — in a coveted line — in a wonderfully run, well attended building — on a gorgeous block — in a prized part of an established neighborhood, with a glorious history and an exciting Riverwalk Promenade (coming soon). Entertaining is fun, simple, and lively in your lofted-out, open-plan living and dining rooms, graced by a large, handsome, open kitchen — with dining bars, premium appliances (including wine fridge), beautiful tile backsplash, and ample cabinets and quartzite counters. A big run of jumbo windows ties this great room together, bringing bright peeks of sunny skies and architectural city views to the entire residence. Clean lines govern all of the smart design, and gorgeous form brings easy-living function throughout this expansive home. Graciously separated from each other, both big bedrooms have impressive closet space, a large scale, and both enjoy this home’s signature big, bright windows. The primary bedroom is king sized and offers room enough for a desk space. Served by a jumbo, spa-like bath with impressive fixtures and a designer style, this lovely bath makes the primary suite even sweeter. The guest bedroom enjoys a gracious scale, and swims in bright Southern sunshine through its over-scaled windows. Served by a good looking, renovated guest bath, this guest suite is ideal for all of your growing needs. With a premium position in its well-run, well-regarded, land lease building, this fully re-invented home enjoys all the benefits of its full service building: a river-view roof deck, in-house gym, laundry/bike/storage rooms, building garage, resident superintendent, a pet wash station, and a location that comes with bragging rights. Nearby is most every area cultural, dining, shopping, and recreational destination — not to mention Peter Detmold Park, dog runs, playgrounds, easy transportation options, and more. If you’re feeling stung by the price of a fully renovated Manhattan dream home in an amenity-rich building in a prime neighborhood, then relax — breathe. Here’s your chance to revel in the heroic quality, heroic scale, and heroic value that this easy living, easy to love home gives you.

Beekman Place | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Beekman Place is less of a neighborhood than it is a quiet two-block enclave just north of the United Nations on the far eastern edge of Turtle Bay. There is only one street that runs through the neighborhood, also called Beekman Place, that wraps itself around 49th Street and 51st Street.  

This bucolic little stretch of the east side has always been a cherished spot for those fortunate enough to have found refuge here. The noise and the street traffic from the city surrounds is virtually non-existent as there are no through streets in this neighborhood.  

The neighborhood composition largely consists of a few clusters of townhouses and prewar co-ops. The exception to the rule is the charming art-deco-styled Beekman Place Hotel at the corner of First Avenue and 49th Street and the two post-war towers, 860 and 870 UN Plaza that front the grounds of the United Nations.
