301 E 63rd St

Located on the Upper East Side at 301 East 63rd Street, this 16-story cooperative was built in 1959 and contains a mix of studio/alcove, one- and three-bedroom layouts, many of which have been reconfigured into junior-four or two-bedroom plans. The limestone-and-brick midcentury façade conceals classic pre-war-scale apartment proportions: parquet or hardwood floors, windowed kitchens (some eat-in or galley-style), multiple generous closets and occasional foyer or den spaces. Most residences offer triple exposures or line-specific bright exposures; several units have been renovated with contemporary finishes while others retain original cabinetry and tile. Common areas include a recently redesigned air-conditioned lobby and updated elevator cabs, a planted roof deck and landscaped roof garden that can be rented privately by shareholders, on-site laundry room, bike storage and a resident super. Building operations are full-service with a 24-hour doorman, on-site garage, private storage rooms and a laundry facility. Pets are permitted (one dog or one cat up to 40 lbs, height restrictions apply). The co-op owns its land; a mortgage related to the land purchase affects maintenance levels and shareholder financial arrangements, though the corporation reports substantial reserves and periodic bulk-rate utility programs (electricity, cable/internet) available by opt-in. Board policies are relatively flexible: pied-a-terre ownership, gifting, guarantors, parents buying for children, co-purchasing and subletting are allowed subject to board approval. The building sits steps from the 63rd Street subway access and a short walk to Central Park, Bloomingdale’s and multiple neighborhood groceries and restaurants, making it a full-service, transit-rich option in Lenox Hill.
