OPEN HOUSE BY APPOINTMENT ONLY
Welcome to 242 East 75th Street, a well-maintained boutique building nestled on a quiet, tree-lined block in the heart of Lenox Hill on the Upper East Side. This charming pre-war property offers classic New York character with responsive on-site management and an area superintendent, creating a comfortable and well-cared-for living experience. Residents also enjoy the convenience of a laundromat with pickup and drop-off service just one block away.
Apartment 1A is a thoughtfully updated one-bedroom that blends modern updates with timeless pre-war charm. Exposed brick walls and strip hardwood flooring add warmth and character throughout the home, while the renovated kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher for everyday convenience. A French door bedroom partition creates a distinct sleeping area, and the bathroom features a full bathtub, making this residence both functional and inviting.
Located in one of Manhattan's most desirable neighborhoods, this home places you moments from some of the Upper East Side's best restaurants, cafes, boutique shopping, and everyday conveniences. Central Park, John Jay Park, and the East River Esplanade are all nearby, offering plenty of outdoor recreation. Commuting is effortless with the 6 train at 77th Street and Lexington Avenue, the Q train on Second Avenue, and a Citi Bike station directly in front of the building.
