Excellent light, a flexible floor plan on a high floor, large, well-proportioned rooms, 9'6" ceilings, original hardwood floors, and a step down living room with wood burning fireplace, all contribute to making this classic 6-room apartment, in one of the upper East Side's most conveniently located buildings, extremely desirable. One enters the apartment from a semi-private vestibule shared by only one other tenant leading into an elegant and generously proportioned entry gallery with Art Deco iron railing. This   wide space is ideally suited as an entrance foyer or dining area.  To the west, off a private corridor, are two large bedrooms with en suite bathrooms and very large closets.  The gracious and impressive living room, along with all the other major rooms of the apartment, have big windows facing 79th Street. The formal dining room, also facing the wide street, can easily be converted into a third bedroom.  The adjacent service area, now accessed from the gallery, includes a maid's room, a maid's bath, a pantry   and a kitchen.  This large flexible space, with open views facing south and east, can easily be adapted to enlarge the kitchen area or provide a bathroom to the original dining room.

180 East 79th Street is an excellent, full service building, designed by Schwartz & Gross in 1929.  It is situated on the southwest corner of Third Avenue in the heart of the upper East Side.  There is a gym, a laundry room, and a bike room in the building.  A storage bin in the basement transfers with this   apartment. Pet Friendly.
