About This Property

Penthouse Studio Living on the Upper East Side

Perched atop this impeccably maintained elevator cooperative, this beautifully updated top-floor residence offers a rare blend of tranquility, natural light, intelligent design, and exceptional value.

Overlooking the gardens rather than the street, the home provides a quiet retreat in the heart of the Upper East Side. Its bright northern, garden-facing exposure fills the residence with soft, consistent natural light throughout the day while avoiding the harsher afternoon sun often associated with southern-facing homes.

The open-concept layout is one of the residence’s defining features, creating an airy, uncluttered feel that lives beautifully. Thoughtful enhancements-including a renovated kitchen, updated flooring, custom pendant lighting, and a tastefully refreshed skylit bathroom-come together to create a clean, timeless aesthetic while preserving the openness and versatility of the space.

Adding to the home’s appeal are exceptionally low monthly maintenance charges, making this an outstanding opportunity for both full-time residents and those seeking the perfect Upper East Side pied-à-terre.

Residents are welcomed through an elegant, meticulously maintained lobby and enjoy the convenience of a live-in superintendent, on-site laundry facilities, bicycle storage, and private storage (subject to availability)-all reflecting the pride of ownership evident throughout this well-cared-for cooperative.

Perfectly positioned just moments from the Q train at 72nd Street, the location places some of the neighborhood’s finest destinations right outside your door. Enjoy acclaimed favorites including Sushi Noz, Boqueria, Jones Wood Foundry, Thep Thai Restaurant, Pastrami Queen, Orwashers, Milano Market, and Grace’s Marketplace, while both Central Park and the East River Esplanade are just a short stroll away.
