A Rare Opportunity: Spacious, Renovated 5-Bedroom Prewar Co-op flooded with light Welcome to this beautifully renovated 10-room prewar co-op, this exceptional residence boasts stunning open views in all directions—North, South, East, and West. Encompassing approximately 3,600 square feet, the home has been thoughtfully updated to provide a seamless, move-in-ready living experience. A semi-private elevator landing leads to an elegant foyer, which flows gracefully into a grand, south-facing living room. Bathed in natural light, the living room offers expansive views of Midtown and ample space for multiple seating arrangements. Adjacent to the living room is a chic library that doubles as a home office, with custom built-ins. The formal dining room faces east and has 9’8” ceilings and is suitable for large and small gatherings alike. Pocket doors open to a crisp white, chef’s kitchen—a culinary masterpiece outfitted with premium appliances and a vented range. Bright and inviting, the kitchen includes a custom banquette seating area for eight. Its open flow and east exposure makes it the perfect way to start the day. The apartment’s unique and highly desirable floor plan separates the primary suite from the other bedrooms, ensuring privacy and tranquility. Located off the library, the primary suite is a luxurious retreat, featuring a spacious five-fixture en-suite bathroom, multiple walk-in closets, and views south and west towards Central park and the Metropolitan Museum. The opposite wing of the residence houses three generously proportioned bedrooms, each with excellent closet space, abundant natural light, and two additional full bathrooms. Two staff rooms have been thoughtfully repurposed into a laundry room with excellent additional storage and a fifth bedroom with its own en-suite bath, adding further versatility to the home. Elegant hardwood floors and beautiful moldings extend throughout the apartment, while nearly 10-foot ceilings enhance the sense of space and grandeur within this 1913 architectural gem. There is also thru-wall HVAC throughout, custom closets, clever built-ins, sonos throughout the entertaining areas and primary bedroom and a wonderful flow between entertaining spaces. Situated at the prestigious address of 45 East 82nd Street, just one block from the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Central Park, the building offers 24-hour doorman service, a live-in superintendent, private storage, bike room and exceptionally low monthly maintenance fees. Pets are welcome. There is a 2% flip tax (paid by purchaser). Listing courtesy of Compass ...
