Property Description for 201 East 62nd Street, 12-B

Bright and beautifully proportioned, this corner residence enjoys open south and west exposures, filling the home with natural light while offering picturesque views of Third Avenue and the downtown skyline. A welcoming foyer with oversized coat closets and a powder room introduces the home’s thoughtful layout, leading into an expansive living and dining room designed for both comfortable everyday living and effortless entertaining. The residence has been thoughtfully updated with numerous recent improvements. The windowed kitchen was fully reconfigured, including relocating the sink beneath the window, updating the plumbing with new, code-compliant pipes, and installing custom cabinetry and a new countertop. New appliances include a washer, dryer, stove, dishwasher, and refrigerator. The opening between the kitchen and dining room was enlarged to create a more open connection, while the former counter in the dining area was removed for a cleaner, more seamless flow. The generously sized bedroom is privately positioned from the main living areas and features excellent closet space, including two walk-in closets. The bedroom windows have been upgraded to double-pane glass for enhanced noise reduction, while a new countertop/desk adds functionality and flexibility to the space. Further enhancements include beautifully refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint throughout, custom window treatments from The Shade Store, and thoughtfully selected new lighting fixtures from Foundry Lighting, adding a sophisticated finishing touch to the home. Situated within the full-service cooperative at 201 East 62nd Street, residents enjoy a 24-hour doorman, package delivery service, resident manager, fitness center, bike storage, and an on-site garage. Garage spaces are available subject to a waitlist. A private storage unit is included with the apartment, and monthly maintenance covers utilities and cable. Designed by renowned architect Morris Lapidus, the building is recognized for its polished granite facade and striking floor-to-ceiling windows. Perfectly positioned on a quiet Upper East Side block, the building is moments from Central Park, Bloomingdale’s, world-class restaurants, and neighborhood favorites. Multiple subway lines (F, N, Q, R, 4, 5, and 6) and nearby bus routes provide convenient access to the rest of the city, making this an exceptional opportunity to enjoy spacious, full-service Manhattan living in a residence that has been thoughtfully updated and meticulously maintained.

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.
