From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Welcome to Residence 3AB at 196 East 75th Street - a bright and beautifully reimagined home featuring 3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and a dedicated home office. Two apartments combined into one seamless layout that's both practical and elegant, offering exceptional space, style, and notably low monthly maintenance. A sun-filled, double-sized living room anchors the home, featuring custom built-in bookshelves and a sleek media center - well-suited for both entertaining and relaxing. The generously sized, eat-in kitchen is a chef's dream: three expansive windows, a commercial-grade stove, dedicated ice maker, and premium appliances throughout. The kitchen flows into a cozy dining area with banquette seating for eight and additional bar seating at the counter. Storage abounds, with two large pantry closets and multiple additional storage areas throughout the apartment. The primary suite is tucked away in a private wing and includes expansive walk-in closets and custom built-ins. Two additional bedrooms also offer excellent storage and built-in cabinetry. A large and flexible bonus space is designed to accommodate a home office, media room, or creative studio, complete with shelving and cabinetry. A spacious laundry room with a full-size washer and dryer, utility sink, and added cabinetry enhances everyday convenience. Finishes throughout reflect careful attention to detail - marble window sills, elegant moldings, and recessed lighting. A Sonos sound system and individually zoned heating and cooling with thermostats in each room add comfort and a tech-forward edge. Perfectly positioned just west of Third Avenue, across from Citarella and minutes from both the 6 and Q subway lines. 196 East 75th Street is a full-service boutique co-op with a gym, bike storage, and an adjacent parking garage. Pet-friendly and welcoming to pied-a-terres.
