About this home

Apartment for sale in Upper East Side-Lenox Hill-Roosevelt Island, Manhattan: 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom. Asking price $899,950. Built in 1956.

From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Perched on a high floor with a rare south and west facing exposure, this recently renovated Junior 1 bedroom is bathed in direct sunlight throughout the day. A thoughtfully designed, almost 900 square foot layout offers exceptional flexibility, refined finishes, and beautifully dark stained flooring throughout, all combining for a home that feels far more substantial than a typical one bedroom. The open kitchen commands expansive counter space and is built with room for stools, creating a true eat in kitchen that flows effortlessly into the sun drenched living space, for everything from quiet mornings to easy entertaining. The primary bedroom is a showstopper for storage alone. A wall to wall, ceiling height closet with custom shelving spans one side of the room, while a separate 5 foot deep closet, currently configured as a dedicated shoe closet, can easily be customized to fit your needs. An additional expansive built in linen closet and beautiful marble finishes complete the spa like bathroom. Ownership here is as flexible as the layout. The Royal York is a true condop, meaning no board interview, no DTI requirements, and no post closing liquidity requirements, making this an exceptional opportunity for investors, with rental allowed from day one. Combined with exceptionally low monthlies for a Junior 1 bedroom, this is a rare chance to own one of the building's most desirable lines. The Royal York itself is a full service Lenox Hill condop prized for its exceptional management and financial strength. Residents enjoy white glove service with a 24 hour doorman and concierge, a fitness center, and beautifully landscaped private gardens that feel worlds away from the city. Spanning nearly half an acre, this serene outdoor retreat is complemented by a newly installed Birch Tree Grove, offering a quiet moment of calm right outside one's door. With flexible ownership policies including immediate subletting, gifting, guarantors, and co purchasing, this home is equally compelling as a primary residence, pied a terre, or long term investment.
