This ground floor, four-room, one-bedroom apartment is located in a lovely pre-war cooperative on one of the Upper East Side's best tree-lined streets. It is the perfect retreat from city life.

Off the formal, attended lobby, one enters through the foyer into a large living room with 9'6 foot ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace. Adjacent to the living room is the inviting dining room with custom shelving and storage. This space can also serve an ideal built-in home office. Just off the dining room, the spacious windowed kitchen has sleek, modern cabinetry, stainless steel countertops, and recessed lighting. High-end appliances include: a Bosch dishwasher, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and Wolf range.

The quiet and cozy bedroom is beautifully appointed. It has three sizeable wardrobes and custom bookshelves on either side of the bed. The spa-like bathroom has a deep soaking tub and a unique, walk-in ensuite shower and marble finishes.

This classic apartment is replete with herringbone floors, through-the-wall air-conditioning, prewar detailing and abundant storage. The installation of a washer dryer is permitted with building approval.

Just steps from Central Park, 45 East 62nd Street is a boutique cooperative built in 1915 and ideally located between Park and Madison Avenues. This full-service cooperative has amenities which include a live-in resident manager, basement storage bin, and a laundry room. 50% financing is permitted as is pied-a-terre ownership.
