Perhaps the pandemic lifestyle has inspired you to go more minimalist. If so, this alcove studio on the Upper East Side may be pretty appealing. Located at 205 East 63rd Street, just east of Third Avenue, the legal one-bedroom has a futuristic vibe with stark white walls, porcelain floors, and furniture, save for the strategically placed pops of lime green. For just $350,000, there’s a foyer, full kitchen, large living room (currently outfitted with a modern Murphy bed to free up even more space), and a whopping six closets.
The storage is really unbelievable; even in the foyer, extra cabinetry has been added to match that in the adjacent kitchen. There’s also an entryway closet. In the kitchen, you’ll find granite counters, a dishwasher, a custom espresso coffee system, and a washer/dryer. Off the living room is a short hallway with two closets and the newly renovated bathroom.
Technically, the unit is a one-bedroom, but it’s currently configured as an alcove studio with a Murphy bed in what would be the bedroom space. The living room is large enough for both seating and dining areas and has a built-in entertainment system and shelving. The built-ins continue in the alcove; a mirrored portion conceals the pull-down bed.
The 20-story co-op building has a 24-hour doorman, live-in super, on-site storage, laundry room, in-apartment package delivery, and a valet parking garage. It’s super convenient, just around the corner from the 63rd Street F, N, and Q station and close to the 4, 5, and 6, trains at 59th Street. Bloomingdales is just a few blocks away, as is the 61st Street Equinox. The building is pet-friendly and allows pieds-a-terre, guarantors, and co-purchasing.
