Property Description for 333 East 68th Street, 3-D

Enjoy sophisticated city luxury in this beautifully gut-renovated triple mint corner co-op with top of the line appliances, perfectly nestled in an elegant pre-war doorman building on the Upper East Side. No expense was spared in the renovation of this fabulous home. Every element of the apartment has been thoughtfully enhanced to the highest standard. Upgrades include energy-efficient LED lighting, thermostat-controlled radiators, new double-paned windows, gorgeous 6.5 inch wide plank white oak floors with dual-layer soundproofing. Custom picture rails are perfect for showcasing art. Stunning coffered ceilings reaching 9-feet high, and a custom Eiklor gas fireplace lined with lava stone add character and charm. The fireplace has a chimney and could be converted to wood-burning if desired. The Sony TVs and soundbars are included in the sale, and a private storage unit transfers with the apartment . Northern, eastern, and western exposures saturate this pristine 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with natural light from dawn to dusk. A central foyer with dual storage closets ushers residents into a spacious 23-ft long living and dining room imbued with northern and western light, with delightful views of the building's private courtyard. Just off the living and dining area is a windowed chef's kitchen with a service entrance, radiant heated floors, custom underlit cabinets, a high-end Kohler Karbon faucet, an Insinkerator hot water dispenser, an industrial-grade BlueStar stove with a vented range hood, and state-of-the-art Miele appliances, including a dishwasher, speed oven/microwave and warming drawer. A separate laundry closet contains the Bosch washer and dryer. The north-facing primary bedroom boasts a spacious walk-in closet and a windowed en-suite bathroom with a Toto Neorest automated toilet, a custom vanity with an Axor Citterio sink faucet, a Robern medicine cabinet with built-in Bluetooth speakers, a Runtal towel warmer, and a step-in shower with Hansgrohe rain and handheld showerheads. The second bedroom has an eastern exposure, a pair of deep reach-in closets, and a windowed en-suite bathroom with similar fixtures and finishes. Both bathrooms have radiant heated floors. 333 East 68th Street is a desirable full-service co-op situated across the street from St. Catherine's Park in Lenox Hill. The building has a landscaped garden, an outdoor playground, common laundry, a bicycle room, attentive staff, and a private gym. It is moments from Manhattan's best restaurants, bars, cafes, and shops, and it is close to the Central Park Zoo, The Frick Collection, and The Mall and Literary Walk. Nearby subway lines include the 6 and Q. Pets are welcome. There is a 2% flip tax, paid by the purchaser. 65% financing is allowed. Monthly maintenance includes cable and internet!

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.
