Only a few blocks from Central Park, this bright yet quiet corner unit has comfortable space for relaxing, dining and working. Beautiful custom glass paneled sliding doors enclose the windowed bedroom. No sleeping on the sofa for your overnight guests! There is a sleek, Italian made Ulisse queen wall bed with an incorporated table that is perfect for dining or to use as a desk. The well laid out kitchen has wood cabinetry, granite countertops and backsplash, an LG refrigerator and microwave as well as a GE Profile Monogram dishwasher. The bathroom shines with a marble-topped cabinet vanity, tub/shower combination and a marble mosaic-patterned floor. Both double door closets are thoughtfully designed with Elfa components. There are gleaming hardwood floors throughout. Built in 1959, 166 East 61st Street was designed by architect Horace Ginsbern and features a 9-story street front structure on East 61st Street that is connected by a lobby and basement to a 21-story tower on the next block. The attentive staff includes a full-time doorman and a live-in superintendent. Shareholders have access to a planted courtyard, laundry room, bicycle storage and a common storage room. The cooperative is pet friendly and allows pied-a-terre buyers, guarantors, co-purchasing and sublets after two (2) years of residency. Call to schedule a private viewing.
