Property Description
Welcome home to this newly renovated, generously proportioned prewar studio nestled in the heart of Lenox Hill. Apartment 5S offers a rare combination of charm, space, and smart updates, making it an ideal home, or pied-à-terre.
As you enter, you're greeted by a bright and airy living space with high beamed ceilings and newly refinished hardwood floors that highlight its prewar heritage. The layout allows for flexible living, with ample room for lounging, dining, sleeping—and even a dedicated work-from-home nook.
The apartment features a separate, fully renovated kitchen with classic white cabinetry, a subway tile backsplash, and a cozy breakfast bar—perfect for hosting friends or enjoying takeout from one of the many gourmet food shops or restaurants just around the corner.
Natural light filters in through large windows overlooking a serene interior courtyard, offering rare tranquility in the heart of the city. The windowed bathroom is timeless and tasteful, with original tilework, a pedestal sink, and an updated yet classic aesthetic.
Set in a meticulously maintained full-service cooperative, 205 East 78th Street is known for its gracious prewar design, dramatic coffered-ceiling lobby, and warm, welcoming staff. Residents enjoy a full-time doorman, attended elevator, live-in superintendent, and beautifully maintained common areas. The low monthly maintenance includes electric.
This pet-friendly co-op permits pied-à-terre ownership, as well as buying in a trust. The board also allows parents buying with children, as well as subletting after 10 years. Situated on the corner of Third Avenue, the building offers unbeatable access to both the Q and 6 subway lines, as well as the best of the Upper East Side's shops, dining, and cultural institutions.
Step inside and discover a rare blend of privacy, elegance, and comfort—where your doorman's friendly greeting is just the beginning of what makes this apartment feel like home.
