Description

Meticulously gut-renovated by the current owner, this mint 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom boasts a loft-like layout, in-unit washer/dryer, private terrace, and a separate, ground-floor staff room/home office with a full bathroom. The formal entryway with two generous closets leads you to the bright and gracious open-concept north-facing great room, off of which is a private terrace. The chef's kitchen is open to the dining area and features a porcelain island with bar seating for informal dining, Dacor appliances, custom cabinetry, and a large walk-in pantry with a Whirlpool HybridCare washer/dryer. The primary bedroom is adjacent to the living room and also features open northern exposure over double-wide 79th Street. An enormous custom walk-in closet leads to the marble ensuite bathroom with a glass-encased shower, double sink vanity, heated floors, and excellent storage.

At the opposite end of the apartment are two additional bedrooms with large closets that share a full bathroom with a tub. A powder room, additional storage closet hallway, new oak herringbone floors, central AC, overhead lighting in every room, and a plethora of custom closets complete this fabulous home. Built in 1947, 120 East 79th Street is a full-service co-op with a full-time doorman, live-in super, common garden, fitness room, bike room, laundry room, and additional storage (there is currently a waitlist). Located near the finest dining, shopping, and cultural attractions the Upper East Side has to offer. Pets, pieds-a-terre, and 75% financing are permitted. There is a 2% flip tax paid by the buyer. Maintenance for the ground floor staff room: $449.30/month. Monthly assessment of $1,220 (including staff room) beginning April 1, 2024 for 18 months for Local Law 11.
