About 121 E 61st St
Looking for generous living accommodations, privacy and outdoor space, this well-located Upper East Side prewar townhouse quaduplex has it all. Entrance foyer with coat closet on second floor leads to the third floor living room with a WBFP and doors leading to an enormous 33 ft. terrace. Also on this floor is a large formal dining room and a new kitchen with lots of cabinets, dishwasher, granite countertops and a washer/dryer. Very high ceilings, prewar details, a hallway large enough for additional seating space or a bureau, and plenty of wall surfaces for large artwork complete this entertaining space. On the floor above is the Master Bedroom with an en suite Master Bath, WBFP, a walk-in closet/dressing room and another large closet. Opposite is another large bedroom which could also be used as a library. The bath for this room and a linen closet are off the huge center landing separating the rooms. The landing is large enough to accommodate a bureau or a settee.The top floor, which has a skylight, has two large bedrooms, one with a fireplace. Each of the bedrooms has abundant closet space. In addition there is a third smaller bedroom and a small study. The bath is located in the center hall and has its own smaller skylight.Lovely townhouses line 61st Street between Park and Lexington Avenues, and what could be better than the possibility of walking to work. Near multiple subway lines, bus stops, good shopping for anything and everything as well as Central Park, make this a desirable location. A welcoming home for you and even your pet.
