Top-Floor Tranquility with Sunlit Charm on the Upper East Side
Welcome to Apartment 6F, a serene and spacious 1-bedroom co-op nestled on the top floor of a classic six-story elevator building in the heart of the Upper East Side. This move-in-ready home boasts open southeast exposures, allowing natural light to flood the living space throughout the day. The living and dining area offers expansive views over the tree-lined street, rising above neighboring townhomes to provide both privacy and a sense of openness.
The recently renovated, windowed eat-in kitchen is a culinary delight, featuring sleek white and gray stone countertops, a stylish backsplash, new flooring, and stainless steel appliances. Ample cabinetry, including a pantry next to the refrigerator, and a breakfast bar make this kitchen both functional and inviting.
Retreat to the exceptionally quiet corner bedroom, which benefits from multiple exposures and is spacious enough to accommodate a king-sized bed, nightstands, and additional furnishings. The windowed bathroom has been tastefully updated with modern white wall tiles and gray flooring, completing the home's contemporary feel.
Additional highlights include beautifully maintained hardwood floors throughout and four generous closets, including a walk-in off the foyer, providing ample storage solutions.
