Stunning high floor alcove studio with coveted private balcony located in the Lenox Hill area of the Upper East Side. Upon entering this luxuriously designed and elegant apartment you will discover an exceptional renovation by Cornell University architects. Originally a studio with a balcony, this apartment was thoughtfully transformed into a one-bedroom by adding a wall separating the living room from the sleeping area with an innovative door. Enjoy the design benefits which optimized the living space to a one bedroom with the maintenance costs of a studio. The efficient chef's kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances (SMEG top, refrigerator, and freezer as separate drawers, dishwasher, kitchen extractor fan, oven) and built-in cabinets and endless hidden storage. Adjoining is an ensuite bath with Calacatta marble and polished chrome fixtures.
