From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Sunny, modernized 2 bedroom, 2 full bathroom home with a private balcony, in-unit washer and dryer, and very reasonable carrying costs now available at the full-service Gotham Condominium in the heart of the Upper East Side. Residence W6G spans nearly 1,100 square feet and faces south, overlooking treetops and the building's private courtyard all the way to the skyscrapers of Midtown. Large, insulated windows provide no shortage of sunlight while also dampening sound and improving energy efficiency, and newly installed rustic wide-plank flooring runs throughout, creating an overall crisp and pristine aesthetic. The well-designed floor plan makes the most of every inch of this home, offering rooms that can accommodate a variety of needs: king-size bedrooms, space for multiple work from home stations, dining and entertaining, at-home exercising, a massive walk-in close in the primary bedroom, two large marble bathrooms with tubs and impressive storage, and even a private outdoor escape. The clean, bright, and well-equipped kitchen features brand new white stone counters, calacatta floor tile, tile backsplash, a new stainless steel KitchenAid oven and matching microwave, a new stainless steel sink, and a full-size Fisher & Paykel refrigerator and full-size dishwasher. Finally, enhanced lighting and new brushed-bronze fixtures in the bathrooms along with HVAC units in each room for multi-zone temperature control complete this accommodating dwelling. The Gotham is a pet-friendly, full-service condominium featuring a heated lap pool and sauna, locker rooms, a full-scale gym, a beautifully renovated residents' lounge with fully functioning kitchen, a private courtyard and playground, seasonal bike storage, 24-hour doorman and an attentive on-site staff. Situated squarely between the 4,5,6 and Q trains, not only does the building benefit from unparalleled subway access, there is also the M86 crosstown bus a block away, a Hampton Jitney stop nearby, and even a ferry terminal at 90th St. Located at the epicenter of the Upper East Side, the neighborhood delivers a wide array of dining, shopping and entertainment options, several well-known cultural and educational institutions, and numerous museums, art galleries, bike paths, parks and waterfront access points. Also available for Rent. Please inquire for details.
