WOW, this beautiful home in a full service building has so much to offer at this very attractive price point!
Affordability without compromise!
Conveniently located off Third Ave in the East 50s, you will have instant access to restaurants, shopping and transportation, plus close proximity to Central Park and the fabulous new East River Esplanade just three blocks away.
You will be impressed as soon as you arrive at this stately red brick midcentury building, where you will be greeted by the courteous door staff as you enter the elegant lobby. And, you will feel right at home when you open the door to your bright, renovated apartment.
The spacious foyer opens into a large living room, providing an expanse of approximately 30 feet of living space. The living room offers ample space for dining, lounging and an office area. The handsome kitchen is outfitted with wood cabinets, stainless steel appliances (including full sized dishwasher) and stone countertops. The oversized bedroom can easily accommodate a king bed, a desk and more. The walk-in closet is fully built-out to maximize storage, and the bright modern bathroom is a treat, featuring an oversized shower with bench for you to relax and rewind.
Abundant closet space, gorgeous hardwood floors, custom window treatments and recessed lighting throughout are additional features of this move-in ready apartment. All this plus a very low maintenance ($1,461 plus a monthly assessment of $111 through March 2027) makes this a "must see."
Just listed and will not last long!
220 East 54th Street is an established co-op (not a land lease). Building features include a gorgeous roof deck, renovated lobby and a convenient on-site garage (separate charge and subject to availability). Up to 80% financing is permitted, and the co-op has a reasonable sublet policy. The pet policy permits owners to house one dog up to 25 pounds or up to two cats.
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.
