Property Description for 249 East 50th Street, TH-1

BRAND NEW LUXURY BOUTIQUE CONDO BUILDING IN MIDTOWN EAST. MODERN SOUTH-FACING 2-BEDROOM (CONVERTIBLE 3-BEDROOM) TOWNHOUSE WITH PRIVATE ENTRANCE. IMMEDIATE OCCUPANCY. Welcome to residence TH1, a modern townhouse in Midtown East of Manhattan, an expansive 2-story, two-bed, two-and-a-half bath condo unit can be a convertible three-bedroom unit. It includes an exquisitely crafted indoor space (1,399 SF) and a private entrance to the street. Its insulated windows mitigate any noise from the street to ensure a tranquil environment indoors. The ground floor entrance leads to the open Living Room with outstanding high ceilings (almost 11 ft). The open kitchen offers custom modern cabinetry with a quartz countertop plus a huge kitchen island. High-end appliances include a Liebherr refrigerator, a Bosch appliance set such as a convection oven, a five-burner gas cooktop, and a dishwasher. The kitchen also comes with a vented-out range hood, which rarely can be found in Manhattan. Brand new GE smart washer and vented-out dryer in the unit. The Living Room has a corner that can be converted to a 3rd bedroom or home office with tracks to be installed on the ceiling and moving panels. There are two bedrooms located on the second floor with another entrance. The en-suite primary bedroom features an expansive walk-in closet, and the second bedroom has a big closet. All the bedrooms can easily fit a king-size bed, and the bathrooms are custom-designed and have radiant heat floors. Designed by Architect Isaac and Stern, 249 East 50th Street Condominium is a brand-new boutique development. Striking a balance between modern and conservative, the building’s facade of limestone panels and large windows was designed to blend seamlessly into the Midtown East neighborhood. The development is a full-service doorman building with an array of amenities, including a gym, bike storage, and a roof deck. Located in the Turtle Bay neighborhood of Manhattan, 249 East 50th is only two blocks from the 6, M, and E trains. In addition, the neighborhood’s proximity to the United Nations provides unique and unparalleled access to international flavors. 249 East 50th is at the center of it all, with a plethora of upscale restaurants and eateries like Avra Estiatorio and Smith and Wollensky. A range of grocery stores is also nearby—from the natural and organic-focused Whole Foods Market to D’Agostino and Morton Williams. The property tax can be 17.5% lower if the unit is used as a primary residence and held under personal names. The owners of this townhouse unit can do short-term rentals with a minimum of a 3-month lease term. Photos are virtually staged. Contact the listing agents now to schedule a private viewing.

Turtle Bay | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Turtle Bay is best known for hosting the world’s dignitaries at United Nations once a year as the world institution sits on the eastern edge of the neighborhood along the East River.

But this midtown location offers a lot more, a bustling neighborhood teeming with high-rise apartment buildings and an easy walk to the Midtown business district.

Over the past two decades, developers have assembled almost every corner development site along Second Avenue and have built straight up. Not much left to assemble.

Some of the more glamorous, and of course most expensive, addresses are in close proximity to the United Nations. Trump World Tower, which caused a big stir with area residents, in particular, Walter Cronkite, when it was built sits just north of the United Nations Grounds. 

In contrast to the proliferation of the residential highrise, Turtle Bay does have some lovely tree-lined streets between the avenues. In particular, Turtle Bay Gardens, which fronts both 48th Street and 49th Street between Third and Second Avenue has always been a haven for the rich and famous.
