Description

This exquisite four-room residence in a distinguished white-glove cooperative offers a serene and sophisticated retreat on Madison Avenue. Set within an impeccably maintained building, this home exudes timeless elegance, enhanced by abundant natural light and a thoughtfully designed layout. As you enter through the gracious foyer, you are welcomed into a refined space where each detail has been meticulously curated. The versatile den, which can easily serve as a second bedroom, and the spacious living and dining area are beautifully connected, creating a seamless flow for both daily living and entertaining.

The windowed kitchen, replete with fine wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, and high-end appliances, stands as a testament to the home’s quality and craftsmanship. The primary bedroom suite, positioned for privacy, features two walk-in closets and a tastefully appointed en-suite bath. Additionally, the home includes a beautifully renovated powder room, offering convenience for guests. Throughout, an abundance of storage is provided by five generously sized walk-in closets, ensuring every inch of space is optimized.

Modern conveniences include electric shades, new hardwood floors, and through-wall AC. 50 East 79th Street, an esteemed cooperative just a block from Central Park, is renowned for its exceptional service, provided by a full-time staff, including a 24-hour doorman and live-in superintendent. The recently refurbished building also offers a newly renovated lobby, gym, bike room, and private storage. Washer/Dryers are permitted with board approval, and the cooperative allows 65% financing, welcomes pets, and offers parking in the building’s garage at a preferred rate (waitlist).
