Description

240 E 55th Street #LA is the closest thing to Townhouse living you’ll find in an NYC Co-op. This impeccably renovated 4-bedroom home offers an open layout on the main floor with a large lower-level den. Highlighted by an unrivaled outdoor oasis, with direct access from the skylit living room and 2 bedrooms, naturally pulls in the feel of outdoor living, indoors.

The main living space is ideal for entertaining, with a spacious sun-filled living room, dining area & chef’s kitchen, seamlessly flowing into one another.

The gourmet kitchen features Nobilia cabinetry, Ceasarstone Calacatta Nuvo countertops, Miele appliances, a 300-bottle wine refrigerator and premium fixtures. The gracious kitchen storage space is supplemented by a massive walk-in pantry, with an abundance of deep-shelf storage and second refrigerator/freezer.

The nearly 500sf backyard has been luxuriously renovated to include a beautiful lower-level patio with bbq area for lounging and entertaining. Flanked by a large yard with gorgeous turf, flowering trees and a built-in Pergola with separate dining area and swing.

This immaculate escape is fully equipped with LED-lit raised planters, electric and water line. A truly special sanctuary.

Overlooking the garden, the Primary bedroom includes its own en-suite bathroom with a double vanity and new sinks, Kohler fixtures, Toto Washlet toilet, marble shower featuring a built-in bench and a silent ventilation fan. Three generous bedrooms complete the home, one of which has an en-suite marble bathroom.

Outside two of the bedrooms is a sizable playroom/home office/sitting area, easily customized to suit your needs. The private lower-level den/media room has its own full bathroom and laundry room with full size washer/dryer, and additional storage room, offering endless living options.

Additional features of the home include, wire-brushed wide plank oak floors throughout, a Lutron lighting system, independently controlled heating & A/C system and CAT6 wiring to accommodate today’s work from home culture.

240 East 55th Street has a part-time attended lobby, live-in superintendent and a common storage room. Subletting is permitted with board approval.

A phenomenal neighborhood, offering all the luxuries and conveniences you desire in NYC.
