Description

Unit 1103 at the esteemed Buckingham East upends your expectations with its multiple levels and an enclosed solarium/greenhouse that brings the outdoors into your living room. Walnut wood floors add a touch of warmth and sophistication throughout the property.

The lower level introduces the primary common area, including the stunning solarium that fills the room with an abundance of natural light and unobstructed 270-degree views of the Upper East Side. This versatile and enclosed quasi-balcony can easily transform into a serene home office or a yoga studio, offering a peaceful respite from the bustling city life outside.

The upper level houses your spacious bedroom, a sanctuary that can comfortably accommodate a king-size bed and nightstands.

The bedroom boasts two roomy closets and offers an uninterrupted north-facing view of the vibrant Upper East Side neighborhood.
