212 E 77Th St

A compact, five-story postwar cooperative constructed in 1950 on a tree-lined Upper East Side block. The building contains 39 units, primarily configured as studios and small one-bedroom conversions, served by an elevator and a live-in superintendent. Common interior features include a recently renovated lobby and entrance foyer, a shared laundry room, a modest exercise room, and a bicycle storage area; deeded and additional rentable storage cages are available in the basement. Exterior amenities focus on low‑maintenance green space — several ground-floor units overlook either a planted private garden or the block’s verdant street views. The property has modernized systems including updated hallways, a video surveillance/security system, and upgraded electrical infrastructure completed during recent renovations. Management policies are cooperative-board governed: pied-à-terre purchases and co-purchasing are permitted with approval, financing up to 80% is typical, subletting is restricted, and dogs are not allowed (cats permitted in some units by listing). Located on East 77th Street between Lexington and Third avenues, the building places residents within short walking distance of the 6 train, local grocery options, cafes, gyms, and Central Park, offering an urban yet quietly residential lifestyle.
