Description

Tenant renewed. This rarely available, beautifully renovated triplex condominium loft delivers a combination of features that simply cannot be matched in this price range. The three levels of this home bring the spaciousness and comforts of a suburban home, with levels for dining, entertaining and sleeping, yet with all the treasures of prime central Upper East Side at your doorstep. It’s truly the best of both worlds! At its center is a breathtaking solarium offering the impressive grandeur of a "greenhouse in the sky" with all day sunlight and sweeping skyline views.

Sharing the level with the living and dining areas, it’s the perfect place for entertaining, delighting (and impressing!) your guests. The kitchen has been renovated by this owner with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and an abundance of sleek white cabinets and counterspace. The marble-tiled bathroom has been gut renovated with a designer walnut vanity, double-width mirror, and deep soaking tub. The large bedroom gets it very own level at the top of the home. This room features a span of windows with open skyline views, and can accommodate a king-size bed as well as a home office. To top it off, the home has been enhanced with a custom-installation split AC-system, making it an incredibly comfortable space no matter what the season. Generous closet space throughout. Some photos have been virtually staged and/or enhanced.

Property taxes shown include the tax abatement for an owner-occupied unit. The Buckingham East is a full-service building featuring full-time doormen, live-in super, beautifully planted and furnished roof garden, modern laundry facilities, bike room and private storage. The new Second Avenue Q line is on the corner, and the 4 / 5 / 6 express station just 2 Avenues away. Fairway, Whole Foods, Equinox and many of the city’s finest restaurants, cafes and eateries are all within a block or two of your doorstep.

And when you’re not enjoying your beautifully landscaped roof deck, Central Park is always just a few Avenues away. Set up an appointment today and see for yourself how to get 3x the home in this wonderful triplex condominium with solarium!
