Description

Good day, Sunshine! Light pours into this grand, south and west facing home with dramatic city views from large picture windows. Emery Roth and Sons' trademark layout and room size are complemented by 9' 2" ceilings that make you feel awash in space. This nearly 1600 sf two-bedroom, two-bath apartment, easily converted to three bedrooms, offers a bright, windowed south-facing kitchen, hardwood floors throughout, unbelievable closet space, and is pin-drop quiet despite its dynamic location. Your personal touch will make this dazzling mid-century space into a true showstopper. Enter a large gallery that opens into the expansive west-facing living room. The adjacent dining room or third bedroom has an extraordinary southern view all the way down Third Avenue. Also with a southern exposure, the bedroom wing features a huge primary bedroom with ensuite bath and two walk-in closets. The spacious second bedroom has two large closets and a hall bath. A virtually staged photo shows the second bedroom, currently used as a study, as a child's room. The apartment can accommodate a washer and dryer with Board approval. 200 East 57th Street is one of the first mid-century buildings designed and built as a white glove co-op. Its style and substance are evident from the recently renovated lobby to the grand interior proportions of every apartment. The full-service building boasts a 24-hour concierge and doorman, a resident manager and attentive staff, a lovely courtyard garden, a landscaped roof deck with views of some of the city's most iconic buildings, a well-appointed fitness room, individual private basement storage (wait list) and a garage accessible by elevator. Electricity, wi-fi and basic cable are included in the maintenance. The building is pet-friendly and allows pied-a-terres with board approval and 65% financing. 2% flip tax. The location is fantastic, with convenient transportation to anywhere in the city (near the 4/5/6/N/Q/R/E/M subways and M57 and M31 busses) and easy on/off the FDR. The exquisite East River esplanade and the Sutton Place parks are nearby. In the opposite direction, it's only a stone's throw to Central Park, and the city's best shopping and entertainment. And there are dozens of great restaurants right here in the neighborhood. Whole Foods is in the same block; Trader Joe's and Home Depot are minutes away.
