About This Home

RENOVATED PREWAR CHARM WITH PRIVATE TERRACE

Welcome to Residence 4D at 516 East 78th Street, a beautifully renovated home 2 terraces, ideally located within The Cherokee, one of the Upper East Side's most iconic landmarked prewar cooperatives.

Freshly painted and thoughtfully updated, this charming residence seamlessly blends classic prewar character with modern conveniences. The expanded kitchen has been renovated to offer generous counter space, abundant cabinetry, and a highly functional layout for everyday living and entertaining.

Currently configured as a two-bedroom, the apartment can easily be reconfigured to an oversized one-bedroom with a spacious home office, providing flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyles.

Both the living room and tranquil bedroom open directly onto private terraces-an uncommon and highly desirable outdoor retreat that's perfect for morning coffee, dining al fresco, or simply unwinding in the heart of the city. A washer and dryer are also included for added convenience.

Designed by renowned architect Henry Atterbury Smith, The Cherokee is celebrated for its distinctive Beaux-Arts architecture, landscaped courtyards, and rich history. The cooperative offers exceptional flexibility, permitting pied-à-terre ownership, co-purchasing, guarantors, gifting, parents purchasing for children, and subletting. Pets are welcome.

Residents enjoy a live-in superintendent, laundry facilities, package room, bike storage, additional storage, and beautifully maintained common courtyards.

Perfectly positioned between York Avenue and the East River, the building is just moments from Carl Schurz Park, the East River Esplanade, neighborhood restaurants, shopping, and convenient transportation.

Please note that Residence 4D is located on the fourth floor of a classic prewar walk-up, offering charm, privacy, and a rewarding lifestyle in one of the Upper East Side's most treasured cooperatives.

A rare opportunity to own a renovated Upper East Side home with private outdoor space, timeless architectural character, and an exceptional location.
