Set within one of the city's more architecturally distinctive prewar cooperatives, this beautifully bright one-bedroom residence offers an ideal opportunity for first-time buyers, professionals, and investors. Bathed in natural light, the home has been exceptionally loved and blends classic prewar charm with modern updates. Three oversized windows-two of them floor-to-ceiling-along with two private balconies overlook the quiet, tree-lined street below, distinguishing this home with a rare, Parisian charm. Gleaming hardwood floors run throughout, while the inviting eat-in kitchen is designed for effortless entertaining, featuring granite pass-through countertops, extra bar seating, and thoughtfully integrated appliances including a washer/dryer, dishwasher, and built-in microwave. The bedroom enjoys abundant natural light, offers ample closet storage, and opens directly onto a private balcony. Located directly across from John Jay Park and the East River Esplanade in Lenox Hill, The Cherokee, built in 1909, is a landmark cooperative comprised of four elegant courtyard buildings with large windows and richly detailed architecture. The building is pet friendly, and offers an on-site, live-in superintendent, attentive staff, central laundry, bike storage, and a package room. The co-op is extremely well-managed with strong financials, allows parents purchasing, co-purchasing, guarantors, and investors, and monthly maintenance fees conveniently include gas and electricity.
