Description

**Some Photos virtually staged

Residence 5E at 215 East 81st Street is a spacious one-bedroom duplex (amongst the largest 1br in the building) offering a functional sense of scale within a full-service Upper East Side condominium. At approximately 742 square feet, the home stands among the larger one-bedroom layouts in the building, with a thoughtful separation between living and private spaces.

The lower level is dedicated to living and entertaining, with an open layout that comfortably accommodates both seating and dining. Two Juliet balconies bring in natural light and add an element of openness, while recessed lighting and double-pane windows support a quiet, comfor
table environment. The kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Viking range, Caesarstone countertops, and Kohler fixtures. A powder room on this level adds convenience for guests.

Upstairs, the bedroom floor offers privacy and proportion, with an ensuite bath and multiple closets providing strong storage within the residence. The duplex layout creates a natural division between day-to-day living and rest, supporting a more residential feel than a typical one-bedroom.

The apartment has ideal HVAC systems for both heating and cooling, along with noise-reducing windows throughout. The home is wired for high-speed internet and cable.

215 East 81st Street is a well-maintained condominium offering a part-time doorman (10am-8pm on Mon-Thursday and on Fri.to Sun. 10am-6pm) landscaped garden, laundry room, and a thoughtfully designed lobby. The building provides a straightforward ownership structure with flexibility for a range of buyers.

Positioned in the heart of the Upper East Side, the location places you moments from Central Park, neighborhood dining, everyday conveniences, and multiple transportation options. The setting supports both full-time living and pied-à-terre ownership with ease and practicality.
