About This Home
As of November 2024Practically perfect pre-war, park-block pad, welcoming to pied-a-terres.
23 East 74th St. #5G was exquisitely renovated and almost untouched since completion. Formerly owned by legendary entertainer and activist Lena Horne and used as her office, it was sold in 2018 and the current owner has renovated this to perfection for your enjoyment. No expense was spared in this meticulously renovated, triple MINT condition, 1 bedroom, 1 bath home.
A gracious foyer welcomes you into this pin-drop quiet home. The expanded kitchen was opened to flow seamlessly into the living space; featuring custom cabinetry, Caesarstone counter-tops, and a Gaggenau appliance package - everything perfectly placed, with plentiful storage, thoughtful prep-space, and all conveniences considered to make this a perfect "cook's kitchen".
The oversized living room with a three windowed wall allows enough space for dining, formal living-space and a 2nd exposure that became the optimal space for a custom, built-in bench/daybed, and secondary storage station.
Retreat into the quiet, calm bedroom suite, that allows plenty of natural light with its dual-exposures. The bedroom has lots of storage, with a wall of closets along the north side and a walk-in laundry room within a very large storage closet. Clean-lines, beamed ceilings and wood floors throughout.
The Volney Residences was built in 1929 and served as an extended stay hotel. Converted in 1982 to a full-service coop, the building has an incredible staff including a 24-hour doorman and a very friendly and superb live-in resident manager. There is a landscaped rooftop terrace, laundry room, and additional storage cage that transfers with the apartment. The Volney allows 65% financing. Pied a Terre purchase, central & thru-wall AC's have been approved by the Board. Subletting is allowed after one-year ownership for 12-month leases. 3% flip tax and pet friendly although certain dog breeds are restricted. Sorry, no weekend showings.
