About This Home
As of July 2018Home sweet home with low maintenance, and no work to be done! Apartment 4C is one of three apartments per floor in the west wing of this beautifully maintained 1928 pre-war coop on the S/E corner of 81st and Lexington. This home has undergone an extensive renovation by the current owner blending original prewar details like beamed ceilings and fine herringbone oak floors with multiple modern upgrades. The electrical system has been completely replaced and new, double pane windows have been installed throughout. All of the walls have been painstakingly skim coated and there are new, through-wall air conditioners. Entrance to this welcoming home is through a proper foyer with a large walk-in closet. The extraordinarily quiet living room is adjacent to an unusually large eat-in kitchen, perfect for any chef who enjoys plenty of room to simultaneously cook and entertain. Meticulously renovated, the kitchen includes custom cabinetry, high end appliances and a seating area bar that is ideal for breakfast dining or early afternoon tea when the sunlight streams through the southeast facing windows. The oversized bedroom has good light and faces north onto 81st Street; the windowed bathroom is newly renovated and mint. 140 East 81st Street is a full service 24 hr. doorman building located in a prime Upper East Side neighborhood close to all bus and transit, Central Park, dining and shopping as well as many fine museums and cultural opportunities. Building amenities include a live-in superintendent, a recently-opened gym, laundry room, bike room and storage as well as a garden area for residents. Washer/dryers with board approval. The building permits pied-a-terres, and pets are welcome. Co-purchasing is not permitted; gifts and guarantors are on a case by case basis. Maintenance is low and the building does not have a flip tax.
