Grand Prewar One-Bedroom with Wood-Burning Fireplace, and Windowed Eat-In Kitchen in Prime Upper East Side This oversized, elegant one-bedroom, one-bathroom home offers the best of classic prewar living in the heart of the Upper East Side. With grand proportions, beautiful light, an in-unit washer/dryer, and a windowed eat-in kitchen, not to mention windows in every room, including the bathroom. This residence delivers both charm and functionality in equal measures. A gracious entry foyer welcomes you with a sense of arrival, setting the tone for the refined details that follow. The expansive living room is drenched in southern sunlight and features a working wood-burning fireplace, and custom built-ins, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. The spacious, windowed eat-in kitchen is thoughtfully designed for the modern cook. Outfitted with a new Bosch stainless steel refrigerator and LG stainless steel range, the kitchen also boasts generous wood cabinetry for exceptional storage and expansive counter space, making it a dream for everything from preparing multi-course meals to enjoying casual, in-kitchen dining at the built-in banquette.

Its generous proportions easily accommodate a king-size bed and additional furnishings. Enjoy the oversized custom bedroom closest. Completing the home is a classic, windowed pre-war bathroom and the ultimate in convenience: an in-unit washer and dryer. Rich prewar details, including high ceilings, solid hardwood floors, and impeccable architectural character, make this home a timeless Upper East Side treasure. Built in 1931, this distinguished prewar cooperative offers full-service living with a 24-hour doorman, attentive staff, live-in superintendent, and concierge services.
