Charming Pre-War 2BR / 2BA in the Heart of Carnegie Hill
Step into a gracious entry gallery that sets a refined tone for the home. The spacious, sunken living room features tall ceilings, refined moldings, and southern exposures from three oversized windows flooding the space with natural light. Beautiful, restored hardwood floors run throughout, enhancing the apartment's warm and timeless appeal.
The chef's kitchen is a modern delight: windowed, open to the dining area, it's appointed with quartz countertops, stainless-steel appliances, a breakfast bar island, and abundant custom cabinetry (plus a handy pantry). It's ideal for both entertaining and everyday life.
The primary bedroom enjoys an en-suite bath, generous closet space, and serene street views. The second bedroom is equally gracious, serviced by its own fully renovated bath. Throughout the home you'll find attention to detail from updated electric to smart finishes and thoughtful layout flow.
*Location couldn't be better: you're steps from Lexington Avenue, a few blocks to Q, 4/5/6 and Second Avenue subway lines, and close to Whole Foods, Fairway, Museum Mile, and top-tier Upper East Side shopping and dining. Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined block in prime Carnegie Hill, this sunny and elegant two-bedroom, two-bath apartment offers the perfect blend of classic pre-war character and modern comforts.
