Property Description

Welcome to Apartment 5H at 166 East 61st Street -- a beautifully renovated alcove studio in the heart of Lenox Hill.

Thoughtfully designed throughout, Apartment 5H presents a sleek aesthetic complemented by abundant natural light and tasteful interiors. Upon entry, open eastern views greet you through a wall of windows in the main living space. Hardwood floors and large, double-pane windows with high-end treatments define the unit, while custom built-in storage lines the space alongside crown and baseboard molding. A generously sized alcove can accommodate a proper bedroom set and is currently configured as a home office.

A stunning galley kitchen near the entrance is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher, and features off-white cabinetry, Caesarstone countertops, and subway tile backsplash. Tucked away separately, the contemporary bathroom is situated next to a large closet and has a bathtub and floor-to-ceiling ceramic tiles. A large coat closet in the foyer provides additional storage.

166 East 61st Street is a full-service co-op building constructed in 1959 in the form of two separate towers that are connected by the lobby and basement. Building amenities and services include 24-hour doormen, a live-in resident manager, central laundry room, private storage, and bicycle storage. Two on-site parking garages are accessible via East 60th and East 61st Streets.

Pets, pied-a-terre ownership, subletting, co-purchasing, guarantors, and parents purchasing for children are all permitted with Board approval. The installation of an in-unit washer and dryer is also permitted with Board approval. There is a flip tax of 2% and up to 75% financing is allowed.

Enjoy prime living on the Upper East Side with top shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences located right at your front door. Central Park is just four blocks away, while Bloomingdales and the 59th and 63rd Street Subway stations are all located in the immediate vicinity.
