Privately situated end unit, with no directly adjoining residence.
Experience the perfect balance of comfort, privacy, and convenience in this beautifully maintained two-bedroom, two-bath residence at The Sycamore, one of Kips Bay's most desirable full-service condominiums.
Bathed in natural light from three oversized windows, this inviting home offers an airy, open atmosphere with peaceful neighborhood views and exceptional privacy. The unit is carefully positioned so you enjoy open outlooks rather than facing neighboring apartments directly. Located on the desirable fifth floor, the residence also offers the added practicality of convenient stair access when preferred.
The thoughtfully designed split-bedroom layout is ideal for both everyday living and hosting guests. Rich vinyl wood floors flow throughout the home, while the well-appointed kitchen features warm wood cabinetry, granite countertops, a full-size refrigerator, microwave, and a newer dishwasher. Both spacious bedrooms provide generous closet space and a quiet retreat from city life. Two beautifully tiled full bathrooms offer Kohler-brand deep soaking tubs and ample vanity storage. Three newer individually PTAC (Packaged Terminal Air Conditioner) units provide efficient, zoned comfort throughout every season.
Residents of The Sycamore enjoy an exceptional collection of amenities, including a 24-hour doorman, live-in resident manager, landscaped rooftop terrace with sweeping Manhattan skyline views, resident lounge, fully equipped fitness center, and laundry facilities conveniently located on every floor.
Ideally situated between Second and Third Avenues, this prime Kips Bay location places you just moments from the 6 subway line, providing direct access to Grand Central Terminal and the rest of Manhattan. It is also conveniently accessible to Penn Station, located within a short distance. Everyday conveniences are right outside your door, including Fairway Market, Trader Joe's, AMC Theatre, Target, neighborhood cafs, lively bars, and an outstanding selection of authentic restaurants along Third Avenue.
Whether you're searching for a sophisticated primary residence, an elegant Manhattan pied--terre, or an outstanding investment opportunity, Unit 5A delivers the ideal combination of location, lifestyle, privacy, and value in one of Manhattan's most convenient neighborhoods.
