Property Description for 118 East 60th Street, 12-C

Perched high above the city in the coveted Plaza Towers, Apartment 12C is an exceptionally bright, quiet, and beautifully renovated residence that combines sophisticated design with remarkably flexible living. Originally configured as an oversized one-bedroom, this mint-condition home has been thoughtfully transformed into a two-bedroom, one-bathroom residence without sacrificing the sense of space and openness that makes it so special. From the moment you enter, the generous foyer sets the tone, with a large custom California walk-in closet providing an abundance of storage. The foyer opens into a spectacular living space spanning more than 22 feet. The high-floor, north-facing exposures fill the room with soft, beautiful natural light throughout the day, creating an inviting backdrop for both everyday living and entertaining. The open-concept chef's kitchen is as stylish as it is functional, featuring a suite of Bosch appliances, sleek glossy-white cabinetry, and a substantial Neolith stone island and backsplash. Just beyond the kitchen, the dining area opens to a charming private terrace of more than 70 square feet—an ideal spot for morning coffee, an intimate dinner, or simply stepping outside to enjoy a breath of fresh air above the city. The home's oversized bedroom has been ingeniously reimagined as two distinct bedrooms, each with its own entrance, custom built-ins, and a nesting pocket door that provides privacy when desired. The result is an unusually versatile layout that can accommodate a second bedroom, home office, guest room, or any combination of the three. A beautifully renovated bathroom features elegant marble flooring and a large custom stall shower, while engineered hardwood floors run throughout the residence, completing the home's polished, cohesive aesthetic. Plaza Towers is a distinguished white-glove coop offering an exceptional level of service, including a 24-hour doorman, concierge, live-in resident manager, and porte-cochère. Residents enjoy a spectacular roof deck with panoramic city views extending to Central Park, as well as a dedicated laundry room, bike storage, and additional private storage. And then there is the location. Central Park is just two blocks away, while Bloomingdale's is literally around the corner, placing some of Manhattan's finest shopping and dining at your doorstep. With convenient access to a number of subway lines—including the 4, 5, 6, N, R, Q, and F—the entire city is within easy reach. Turnkey, thoughtfully designed, exceptionally well located, and filled with natural light, Apartment 12C offers the rare opportunity to enjoy the best of Upper East Side living in a home that feels both elegant and effortlessly livable.

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.
