Designer style and exceptional natural light fill this expansive, recently renovated split two-bedroom, two-bathroom home situated in a full-service postwar cooperative on a lovely Lenox Hill block. Inside this spacious corner residence, tall ceilings with architectural lighting rise over refinished hardwood floors and art walls while large windows frame northern and eastern outlooks and wonderful sunlight throughout the morning and midday. A gracious gallery entry with a large coat closet ushers you into a nearly 28-foot-long open-plan living/dining room, perfect for relaxing and entertaining alongside the Upper East Side skyline. The open kitchen shines with crisp white cabinetry, sleek gray countertops, and upscale stainless steel appliances, including a Viking range and built-in microwave, a Liebherr refrigerator and a Miele dishwasher. A convenient home office has been added in the former dining nook, making it the ideal spot for working from home or incorporating a third bedroom, if desired. This home also has a large washer and dryer in unit. The desirable split-bedroom layout places the owner's suite along the northern exposures, where you'll find king-proportions and three huge closets, including two walk-ins. The en suite bathroom impresses with a large tub/shower, roomy vanity and medicine cabinet surrounded by floor-to-ceiling marble and contemporary fixtures. Across the living space, a second spacious bedroom enjoys eastern views, two large closets and easy access to a well-appointed full guest bathroom. Additional closet space and newer PTAC units with built-in cabinetry add comfort and convenience to this high-floor Lenox Hill haven. 174 East 74th Street is a handsome brick building offering 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, handyman and porter service, plus laundry, storage, a bike room and a small on-site parking garage. While co-purchasing is allowed, gifting and pied-a-terres are case by case. Subletting is allowed 2 out of every 5 years of residency with additional monthly maintenance fee and there is a 2% Flip Tax that is paid by the seller. Pets require Board Approval and there is a limit of one dog per household and said dog cannot exceed 18 inches in height. From this charming tree-lined street in coveted Lenox Hill, you're surrounded by the outstanding shopping, dining, entertainment and conveniences the Upper East Side is known for. Less than four blocks away, you'll find Central Park's iconic outdoor space and recreation, while the East River promenade delivers waterfront vistas just four blocks east.
