Property Description for 136 East 76th Street, 14-C

Welcome home to this large, bright two bedroom home that was transformed into an exceptional loft-like space with an office/second bedroom.

This gem offers three separate large terraces with breathtaking views.

The living room/dining room boasts a wall of windows onto a 25 ft terrace facing the magnificent St Jean Baptiste Cathedral. With its beautiful lit up copper dome, marble facade with carved angels and oversized wooden doors reminiscent of the churches you see on the streets of Paris.

Throughout the day, the apartment is flooded with Eastern light that begins with magical sunrises and ends with red tinted clouds at sunset. If you’re looking for those enchanting views, look no further as from every window, you’ll be touched by the beauty that surrounds this residence.

There is an open kitchen that is separated from the dining room by a restaurant grade stainless steel counter with bar stools. All new stainless steel appliances, including a washer and dryer controlled by a smart phone and ample white cabinetry to hold your kitchen needs.

Right off the kitchen is the door to the second large terrace where you can have a lovely herb garden with a café table and chairs for al fresco dining.

Collectively these 2 terraces have space for multiple lounge chairs, large dining  table with chairs, benches and large plants all around for your indoor/outdoor living.

The generous master bedroom situated next to the third terrace, set as a serene space with plants and a small sculpture, visible through a bank of bedroom windows. This bedroom has a large closet with plentiful drawers, space to hang clothes, as well as a second smaller closet with spacious shelves. There are new hardwood floors throughout this residence. The second bedroom/office is located adjacent to the living room, has extensive built-in shelving/storage space and has room for a bed, desk and chair as well as an industrial looking frosted glass sliding door indicative of a true loft.

 The large tiled bathroom has both a stand-up shower and a large Japanese style bathtub with a split spout to fill the tub and a hand spray. There are architectural drawings to add a powder room off the foyer but weren’t executed due to the plan to relocate.  The traditional foyer as you enter, offers a coat closet.

The 136 E76th Street building itself, is an attractive boutique full-service cooperative that is pet friendly and offers a roof garden, common storage, a garage, laundry room, and a bike room.  The apartment comes with a dedicated 2’6" x 2’6" x 6’9" storage cabinet located in the basement.

The sought-after location is convenient to Central Park, The Met, many cultural institutions, restaurants, boutiques, and top food vendors like Citarella and Butterfields. The 77th Street 6-train stop is just one block North and there is good cross-town bus service on 79th Street. The 72nd Q line stop is a short walk away. Electricity is the only utility that is not included in maintenance. Gifting and Co-purchasing permitted.

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.
