Property Description for 230 East 79th Street, 5-A
**New incentive- Seller now offering a buyer credit equal to 4 months of maintenance charges at closing**
Bright, quiet, and well-proportioned, this Upper East Side one-bedroom offers a thoughtful layout and a comfortable feel throughout. With a south-facing exposure and set away from any street noise, the apartment benefits from consistent natural light while maintaining a calm, peaceful atmosphere.
The layout is a true one-bedroom, not a conversion, with an easy, functional flow. The living room is spacious and flexible, with room for a comfortable seating area, a media setup, and a dining corner without feeling crowded. Hardwood parquet floors run throughout, and five closets provide exceptional storage for an apartment of this size.
The separate kitchen keeps the living area clean and defined. It features an updated tile floor, a new wall oven and cooktop, and full-size appliances including a dishwasher and refrigerator.
The bedroom is well-sized and can comfortably accommodate a king or queen bed, along with additional furniture. The bathroom includes a full-size tub, and the apartment features heating and cooling units in both the living room and bedroom.
The Belmont is a full-service co-op located on a prime Upper East Side block, moments from Central Park, multiple subway lines, the crosstown bus, and neighborhood staples like Fairway. The building has recently updated its lobby and hallways and offers a full-time doorman, live-in superintendent, and a large central laundry room. Verizon Fios and Spectrum are available.
Pied-à-terre ownership, co-purchasing, and subletting are permitted with board approval. Financing up to 75% is allowed. Sorry, no pets.

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.
