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.

The north-facing bedroom is a true sanctuary, pin-drop quiet and overlooking the building's interior, offering peaceful respite from the city buzz. 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.
