Prewar Charm, Wood-Burning Fireplace & Modern Elegance in Turtle Bay.
Welcome home to Residence 2E, an oversized and beautifully updated prewar one-bedroom featuring a rare wood-burning fireplace, soaring ceilings, and exceptional storage in the heart of Turtle Bay. This elegant 1924 boutique full-service cooperative building blends classic New York character with modern comfort.
From the moment you enter the gracious foyer, the remarkable scale of the home is immediately apparent. Soaring ceilings and oversized windows create an airy, loft-like atmosphere, while the versatile floor plan comfortably accommodates living, dining, and work-from-home spaces.
A wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room—a rare feature that creates an inviting focal point. The open kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and custom cabinetry.
Overlooking the building's private courtyard, the bedroom offers a peaceful retreat from the city below. Abundant closet space, including two walk-in closets, provides exceptional storage rarely found in a one-bedroom home.
Residents enjoy an elegant marble lobby, landscaped roof terrace with sweeping skyline views, private garden courtyard, live-in superintendent, laundry room, and a pet-friendly atmosphere.
Set on one of Turtle Bay's most picturesque tree-lined blocks, surrounded by historic brownstones and classic architecture, Residence 2E enjoys a distinctly residential feel rarely found in Midtown Manhattan. Neighborhood favorites include Serafina, Rosemary's, The Smith, and the iconic Smith & Wollensky. Enjoy easy access to Grand Central Terminal, 4, 5, 6, 7, S, E, F, and Metro-North.
Flexible co-op policies permit co-purchasing, guarantors, pied-à-terre ownership, gifting, and parents purchasing for children (board approval). Up to 80% financing is allowed.
Capital assessment: $675.55; seller will cover the remaining capital assessment through November 2026.
