...read moreIf you're looking for a home with 4 full bedrooms and 4 full baths in a well-managed full-service building perched on a high floor with light all day in a great neighborhood at a reasonable price - this is it! The layout is very much like a home in Suburbia. Living room, open kitchen, three bedrooms, three bathos on one wing, and one bedroom, one bath, family room on the other. Any of the bedrooms of course can work as a den or library if you prefer. This home, in excellent condition, works beautifully for any lifestyle. The right wing enjoys an open kitchen with a breakfast bar that can seat four, and has storage underneath. There's a Bosch 5-burner stove, a 2-door subzero fridge, granite counter-tops and even a small window facing west. Off the kitchen, is the dining alcove with built-in storage and room for a large dining table. Great for holiday dinners! Two of the bedrooms on this wing are extra-large and the other is a good size as well. The baths are all full and you'll have walk-in showers and tubs. There's closets galore - 10 closets including 3 walk-ins plus a linen closet. Down the hall, is the left wing where you will find another x-large bedroom suite with dressing room and enlarged bath. The most wonderful part of this wing is that it has a great room. It's a huge den with dining nook and ""second kitchen"" with half fridge, wine refrigerator, and dishwasher - just fantastic for another area to hang out and entertain in.440 East 79th Street is a 16-story post-war building with a magnificent roof-deck that offers fantastic river and city views. It also has a gym that is soon to be upgraded with new equipment, and a parking garage that is accessed through the building. This wellmanaged full-time doorman building has a live-in superintendent, a large central laundry room, bike room and storage room. It's in an ideal location, both vibrant and neighborly. Everything is at your fingertips including easy access to public and private transportation (4,5,6,Q subway lines, crosstown buses and a taxi line that goes downtown). It's very close to cafes and restaurants, all types of shops, food markets, public and private schools, some of the best parks in the city, a library and even a post office! Pet friendly, co-purchasing, guarantors, and pied-a-terres are allowed.
