A Quiet Midtown East Retreat: Move-in-ready One-Bedroom with a Private Terrace, Bedroom Balcony, and Skyline Views This 20th-floor unit offers a rare sense of exclusivity, sharing the level with only one other residence and boasting two private outdoor spaces that frame the skyline from your living room and bedroom.

The generously proportioned living and dining room, with rich hardwood floors, opens directly onto the southeast-facing terrace room for outdoor dining, lounging, and entertaining. The bedroom easily accommodates a king-size bed with room to spare. An architect and interior design team featured in Architectural Digest redesigned the home and finished it down to the details. The expanded, windowed kitchen features a pantry, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a Miele gas range and dishwasher. Custom built-ins provide generous storage and seamlessly integrate the heating and air-conditioning units into the cabinetry, complemented by fully outfitted closets and custom window treatments. A custom-designed lighting scheme features hand-selected fixtures and dimmers throughout for warm, layered light. The enlarged, windowed bathroom offers a sleek, glass-enclosed shower, Keith Haring-designed tile, and a spa-like feel. - 24-hour doorman and concierge, live-in superintendent, and laundry in building. - Monthly Maintenance includes real estate taxes, water, heat, electricity, and cooking gas - Pied-à-terre purchases, co-purchasing, and gifting permitted - Subletting is allowed after one year of residence, for up to five years In the heart of Midtown East, you're at the center of it all.
