In a distinguished East 79th Street circa 1915 co-operative is a truly special offering: an architecturally significant one bedroom apartment in pristine condition with dazzling all-day direct sunlight and open Manhattan vistas.

Apartment 9F was ingeniously renovated to the highest order by AB ARCHITEKTEN www.abarchitekten.com in a thoughtful and meticulous manner to take advantage of the best of the World War 1 era architecture- soaring ceilings, over sized windows and herringbone oak floors- juxtaposed with the free-spirit of classic modernism and design.    Published in top design journals around the world, this breathtaking apartment features a gracious entry, bright, open kitchen with stainless steel subway tiling and artisan sculpted woods and stone and a generous dining area large enough for dinner parties.

The striking living room has a large window facing South with open city views, solid bleached maple library bookshelves and a glass transom to allow light to dance between the living and adjacent bedroom.  The airy bedroom also faces South with all day sun and has a large windowed dressing closet.  The luminous windowed bathroom features the best in Italian modern design with exquisite stone and wood surfaces and a spa-influenced soaking tub.  Ingeniously incorporated designer lighting surrounds the entire apartment with an ambient glow.  

156 East 79th Street Street is a long-established co-operative that allows 50% financing, and offers the reassurance and convenience of a 24 hour doorman, resident building manager, and personal storage in the heart of the Upper East Side.
