Property Id: 2875328 A true one-bedroom on a quiet Upper East Side block, with the kind of proportions that make a rental feel like an actual home. Apartment 5F offers a comfortable living room with enough space for a full sofa setup, television, coffee table, and dining area. The bedroom accommodates a queen-size bed with both nightstands, while hardwood floors run throughout the apartment. The bathroom has been updated with fresh subway tile, giving the apartment a clean, simple finish without losing the character of the older building. The five-story prewar building has a live-in superintendent and puts you right in the middle of Lenox Hill’s everyday rhythm—restaurants, cafés, grocery stores, neighborhood services, and the Upper East Side’s larger attractions all close by. Transit is particularly convenient, with the Q at 72nd Street and the 6 at 68th Street and 77th Street all within roughly a quarter mile. Please Note: Images may be virtually staged for illustrative purposes. The apartment is offered unfurnished unless otherwise indicated. Availability, pricing, features, and terms are subject to change without notice. Dimensions are approximate and should be independently verified. Equal Housing Opportunity. NYC rentals can move quickly, and syndicated listings may remain online briefly after a unit is rented. If this apartment is no longer available, your inquiry can also put you on my radar for similar opportunities in Lenox Hill, Yorkville, and the surrounding Upper East Side.
