Whether as your first apartment in New York City or a pied-a-terre to enjoy when you're in town, this lovely alcove studio in the Mansion House cooperative is a perfect abode at a prime uptown address! Easily convertible into a Junior-one bedroom, this attractive Upper East Side apartment has a spacious feel with large and sunny south-facing city views that make it bright and cheerful. The comfortable cook-friendly kitchen is a nice size as compared to most studios; the excellent closet space is another big plus. And you can't beat the great location on East 82nd Street between quiet East End Avenue and the more active York Avenue where you'll find plenty of restaurants, shops, bars and services, including a weekly year round Farmers Market.  The Mansion House welcomes pets, plus offers  amenities including a part-time doorman, live-in super, full-time porter, underground garage for shareholders, storage lockers for rent, a bike room and central laundry. The building allows parents to co-purchase with their children, so first-timers are welcomed and invited!
