Property Description for 310 East 70th Street, 2M

Gracious living space with Southern Light — Three Bedrooms, Two Baths

Welcome to Apartment 2M at 310 East 70th Street, a thoughtfully converted three-bedroom, two-bath home on a quiet, tree-lined Upper East Side block. With every window facing south, the apartment is filled with natural light—and the living and dining room offers an unusually generous sense of scale.

The living and dining room stretches almost 30 feet from end to end, with a large south-facing window overlooking a peaceful interior courtyard. The room enjoys both abundant light and a remarkably quiet outlook.

The 11' x 18'7" primary suite comfortably accommodates a king-size bed with room to spare. A large walk-in closet, outfitted by California Closets, provides exceptional storage, while the ensuite bath adds privacy and convenience.

The second bedroom is genuinely oversized at 10'1" x 16'9", while the third is a proper bedroom at 8'11" x 12'10", with a full wall of usable space and its own south-facing window. A second full bath serves the bedrooms and living areas.

The kitchen has a generous run of counter space and a dishwasher, with a pantry alcove just off the kitchen. Currently configured as a dedicated home office, the space is tucked discreetly away from the bedrooms and works equally well as a work-from-home retreat, pantry, or additional storage.

Storage is a standout feature throughout the apartment. In addition to the primary suite's large walk-in closet, two closets have been custom outfitted by California Closets, complemented by the oversized pantry alcove. Private additional storage is also available in the building for a fee.

Built in 1959 and converted to cooperative ownership in 1987, 310 East 70th Street is a 12-story, white-brick post-war building with a 24-hour doorman and live-in resident superintendent. The lobby and hallways have been newly renovated. Shareholders enjoy a beautifully landscaped roof deck, full-service parking garage with direct elevator access and a shareholder discount, central laundry, and bike room.

The cooperative permits 75% financing on fixed-rate mortgages, as well as co-purchasing, guarantors, pieds-à-terre, and pets. Monthly maintenance is $2,967.51, with approximately 47% tax-deductible.

The Q train is at the corner of 70th and Second, and the 6, F, M66, and M72 transit lines are just blocks away. Restaurants, neighborhood shops, Central Park, world-class museums, and the city's renowned public and private schools are all close by.

Offered at $1,295,000. No flip tax. Private showings available. Some photos have been digitally altered. They follow the actual photos in the apartment.

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.
