Asten House is a 30‑story, post‑war cooperative completed in 1981 on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, composed primarily of two‑bedroom residences arranged in small, private banks. The limestone-and-brick tower presents a formal marble lobby and renovated corridors that lead to two separate elevator wings; each wing serves three apartments or fewer per floor, reinforcing a quiet, low‑density feel. Typical apartments offer high ceilings, separate formal dining areas, windowed kitchens and baths, abundant custom closets including walk‑ins, and many layouts feature recessed or private balconies with East River and city views. Common facilities are extensive: a staffed white‑glove operation with 24‑hour doormen, concierge, live‑in resident manager, porters and handymen; a fully equipped fitness center; party/community room; bike room; large laundry on the lobby level; multiple storage rooms; landscaped park courtyard; and in‑house valet plus discounted attached garage parking. Pet policy permits dogs under 35 pounds with board approval. The building allows typical cooperative financing structures including pied‑a‑terres and limited gifting/co‑purchasing per board rules. Located just off East End Avenue, the property sits within walking distance of Carl Schurz and John Jay Parks, the East River Promenade, major bus routes, and nearby subway access, delivering a calm, amenity-rich Upper East Side lifestyle.
