A DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH AWAITS POLISHING! Bright, quiet and charming, with very low maintenance and an ultra-generous subletting policy, this true 1-bedroom is one of the very best values on the Upper East Side. Available for the first time in over four decades, this home could benefit from some updating and minor cosmetic fixes, but the key details are there: hardwood plank floors, recessed lighting, oversized double-paned windows, super-high (94) ceilings, an exposed brick wall in the living room that extends to the renovated open kitchen, and a dramatic black granite breakfast bar. The spacious kitchen is complemented by stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher, as well as excellent storage. The updated bath has a vanity sink and built-in shelving; the pin-drop quiet north-facing bedroom features a ceiling fan, sconces and built-in shelving. Closet space is generous, with a large walk-in at the entry, plus an additional closet in the bedroom. A southern exposure in the living room offers abundant natural light. Conveniently located in the heart of the Upper East Side near a wealth of dining, shopping and transportation options (with the Q train and buses close by) and a short stroll to Carl Schurz Park, 415 East 80th Street is an intimate, well managed and well maintained post-war co-op with a live-in superintendent, voice intercom, beautifully renovated Art Deco lobby, laundry room, and bike storage and common storage for rent. In addition to very low maintenance, this pet-friendly non-smoking co-op offers a very generous sublet policy and permits co-purchasing, pied a terres and parental purchasing; guarantors are permitted on a case by case basis. 80% financing. There will be a two-year assessment of $112.15/month beginning in April 2021 to fund the recently completed elevator replacement.
