Property Description for 211 East 51st Street, 12-B

Welcome home to Residence 12B at 211 East 51st Street, a mint-condition, high-floor sanctuary offering low carrying costs and a seamless blend of modern refinement and serenity in the heart of Midtown East.
Bathed in brilliant all-day natural light through an expansive wall of south-facing, double-glazed windows, this quiet two-bedroom retreat features airy nine-foot ceilings, solid-core doors, and rich four-inch blonde white oak floors throughout. The open chef's kitchen is crafted for graceful entertaining and culinary pursuits, fully appointed with striking Calacatta marble slab countertops and an integrated suite of premium Bosch appliances-including a cooktop, wall oven, microwave, and dishwasher.
Both generously proportioned bedrooms capture peaceful southern light and offer generous customized storage. The two full bathrooms serve as spa-inspired respites, finished with Italian marble floors, artisanal blue-gray tile, and bespoke vanities. Everyday practicality is elevated throughout the home by expansive closet space and the quintessential Manhattan luxury of an in-unit Bosch washer and dryer.
Developed by HJ Development, with architecture envisioned by CMA Design Studio and refined interiors by Shamir Shah Design, this intimate, full-service boutique condominium offers residents a 24-hour doorman and concierge service, a state-of-the-art fitness center, and dedicated bicycle storage. The building sits immediately adjacent to Greenacre Park-a modernist pocket park celebrated for its 25-foot waterfall and tranquil landscape architecture-offering lush respite just moments from world-class dining, Fifth and Madison Avenue shopping, cultural institutions, and major transit options.
Whether envisioned as an ideal primary home, a high-yield investment, or a turnkey pied-à-terre, Residence 12B delivers quintessential New York living.

Turtle Bay | Manhattan

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.
