Beautifully renovated studio on a high floor in a very well-run Lenox Hill doorman building! One of the apartment’s standout features is its bright eastern exposure, offering wide-open city views and beautiful natural light throughout the day. The expansive outlook creates a wonderful sense of space and privacy, making the home feel larger than its footprint.

No detail was overlooked in the renovation: the sleek, modern kitchen features full-sized appliances, including a dishwasher, beautifully coordinated cabinetry, quartz countertops, and under-cabinet lighting. There is also a smart thermostat allowing you to control the temperature with ease.

The thoughtfully designed layout easily accommodates a queen-sized bed, dining area, sofa, and desk, all enhanced by the abundance of natural light streaming through the large east-facing windows. The apartment offers exceptional storage throughout, including a deep double closet in the entryway with extensive shelving and a separate dressing area featuring a triple closet off the main living space. The bathroom has been beautifully updated with porcelain tile, new flooring, a tub, new shower hardware, and a large medicine cabinet. Additional upgrades include full-height pivot closet doors for easy access, an updated electrical panel and wiring, and a layout that maximizes both functionality and flow.

The building features a full-time doorman, live-in superintendent, laundry room, furnished roof deck, gym, and bike storage. This exceptionally well-managed co-op also boasts renovated hallways, a bright recently renovated lobby, strong financials, and excellent income from the commercial space (grocery store) downstairs. This reasonable board also permits pets, co-purchasing, and guarantors, and offers low maintenance with no flip tax. Located on a quiet block in the heart of Lenox Hill, residents enjoy easy access to outstanding restaurants, shopping, Trader Joe’s, and the 4/5/6, N/R/W/Q trains at 59th Street.
