From the original listing · ZillowShow

Welcome to Residence 19F at The Hamilton, a beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath home perched on the 19th floor of a full-service cooperative in the heart of Midtown East.

The centerpiece of this exceptional residence is its spectacular 1,250-square-foot wraparound terrace, spanning the coveted corner of Second Avenue and 40th Street. Thoughtfully landscaped with flowers and greenery and spacious enough to accommodate multiple seating, dining, and lounge areas, it offers the rare feeling of having your own private backyard in the sky.

With sweeping panoramic views of the East River and the Manhattan skyline, this extraordinary outdoor retreat is perfectly suited for everything from morning coffee and yoga sessions to alfresco dining and sunset cocktails. Whether entertaining guests or enjoying a quiet moment above the city, the terrace extends the home and delivers a truly elevated New York lifestyle.

Solid oak floors run throughout, complemented by ceiling-height solid wood doors, stainless steel appliances, and a built-in wine refrigerator. The elegant marble bathrooms bring a timeless sophistication to everyday living, while a newly installed fan-coil HVAC system ensures year-round comfort throughout the apartment.

Some listing images are virtually staged for representative purposes only.
