Oversized 1BR + 2 Bath + Home Offices | Convertible 2BR Opportunity

Asking: $999,000
Approx. 1,200 sq ft | North & West Exposures

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a spacious, quiet, corner combination unit in the heart of Midtown East—priced below $1M and offering tremendous upside potential. With over 1,200 square feet of living space, two full bathrooms, dual home office areas, and multiple storage spaces, including a massive walk-in closet, this home lives like a 2-bedroom and can be converted to one in the future with ease.

The expansive layout features a gracious open-concept living and dining area with north-facing light, custom built-ins, and honey oak engineered wood flooring. The windowed kitchen—a rarity in Manhattan co-ops—faces west and includes Bosch and GE appliances, a water-and-ice dispensing refrigerator, and generous cabinetry.

The west-facing bedroom suite is generously sized and located behind elegant frosted-glass French doors and includes a seating/office area, an en-suite bath, and a walk-in closet that rivals the storage of a suburban home. Both bathrooms have been fully renovated with porcelain finishes and stylish fixtures.

Freshly painted in 2023 and shown fully staged, the apartment feels bright, open, modern and immediately livable—yet offers incredible flexibility for a future reconfiguration. A proposed 2BR layout is available for review. Estimated renovation cost: ~$75,000.
