From the original listing · Realtor.comShowHide
Welcome to this grand, newly renovated one-bedroom residence at Gracie Gardens, where gracious proportions, abundant natural light, and thoughtful modern updates come together in a beautifully appointed home. Enter through the elegant foyer, framed by graceful archways, and immediately appreciate the generous scale and light-filled living and dining spaces. A large picture window overlooks the peaceful, landscaped co-op gardens below, creating a serene backdrop to the main living area. Newly refinished floors and recessed lighting enhance the space, while two oversized closets have been thoughtfully updated with new solid-core doors and designer hardware. Through-the-wall air conditioning and brand-new electrical switches and outlets throughout complete the modern updates. The separate eat-in kitchen has been completely gut-renovated with custom solid cabinetry, engineered stone countertops, new tile flooring, and a full suite of Bosch 800 Series appliances. Recessed and under-cabinet lighting add both function and ambiance, while the countertop extends along the rear wall, creating an ideal workspace for working from home. The generously proportioned bedroom easily accommodates a king-size bed and features corner windows overlooking the quiet gardens. A spacious double closet provides exceptional storage, while newly installed through-the-wall air conditioning ensures year-round comfort. The windowed full bathroom has also been renovated down to the studs and features a glass-enclosed soaking tub, new vanity and sink, and new toilet. Conveniently located just outside the bedroom, a dedicated linen closet and brand-new washer and dryer add functionality, with additional room for shelving or a favorite piece of furniture. Gracie Gardens is a well-established four-building pre-war cooperative offering a 24-hour doorman, resident superintendent, renovated lobby, beautifully landscaped courtyard, laundry facilities, storage, and bike room. Pets are welcome. Ideally situated just steps from Gracie Mansion and Carl Schurz Park, residents enjoy easy access to the waterfront, East River Esplanade, sports fields, playgrounds, and neighborhood green space. Wonderful restaurants, cafes, and nightlife can be found nearby, while transportation is convenient with the Q and 4/5/6 subway lines, express bus service, E 90th Ferry Terminal, and FDR Drive all within easy reach.
