Description

EAST RIVER AND BRIDGE VIEWS! TURN KEY!! NEWLY RENOVATED!

Spectacular East River, NYC skyline, and bridge views are on display from this beautifully renovated sun-filled 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath apartment on the 27th floor with your own private balcony in a prime luxury coop.

This thoughtfully designed layout features an oversized step-down living room, a large Southeast-facing balcony with protected landmarked views, a beautifully renovated open windowed kitchen with dining area, and 2 ensuite bedrooms plus an extra powder room for guests. There are beautiful dark stained hardwood floors, floor-to-ceiling custom doors, custom lighting, and tons of custom-fitted closets throughout.

As soon as you enter the apartment and the gracious entry foyer, you can see the light pouring in. The custom-designed kitchen, which has been enlarged from its original layout, has been opened into the windowed dining area and comes equipped with Omega white and grey lacquered cabinetry, a white Carrera porcelain backsplash, island and countertops, and GE appliances, including a wine cooler.

The ideal layout provides an easy flow for entertaining from the kitchen to the windowed dining area to the gracious living room and outdoor space.

All bathrooms have been thoughtfully renovated. The windowed bathroom in the primary bedroom has porcelain ice polished tile with a Robern vanity and medicine cabinet. The second bathroom has a beautiful combination of porcelain ice polished tile and striated light grey porcelain tile also with a Robern vanity and medicine cabinet.

All toilets, faucets and hardware are from Kohler. The powder room has an Ann Sachs marble pedestal sink imported from Italy with a Robern satin anodized mirror.

The Asten House is a full-service white-glove building off East End Avenue with a refurbished marble lobby and renovated custom-designed hallways. There are 2 separate elevator wings with a total of 4 elevators that have just been newly renovated.

With just 3 apartments or less per floor, you’re assured ultimate privacy. The highly attentive, professional staff includes a 24-hour doorman and concierge plus a live-in resident manager. Amenities include a fully-outfitted gym, party room, bike room, storage room, a large laundry facility conveniently located in the lobby, a lovely landscaped park just outside the building, and an attached parking garage(discounted for shareholders).

1 Dog under 35 lbs. is permitted with board approval. 70% financing, 39% tax deductibility. Pied-a-Terres are allowed with board approval. WASHER/DRYERS ARE NOT PERMITTED TO BE INSTALLED IN UNIT.
