It’s easy to overcomplicate things when it comes to real estate, but this Upper East Side co-op at 333 East 66th Street keeps things simple. It’s basically an alcove studio, but custom-designed built-in storage makes great use of every inch of space. A recent designer renovation makes it easy on the eyes, and a high floor means light and city views.
The north-facing apartment has been updated with elegant details like mahogany-stained wood floors, pale walls, and tons of floor-to-ceiling built-in storage.
A well-dressed galley kitchen features wood cabinetry, a Liebherr fridge, Caesarstone countertops, a Bosch dishwasher, and a tailored grey tile backsplash. Floating shelves provide both storage and a place to put your best-looking items on display. The 28-foot-long living space can be divided into a formal living room, a dining room that seats 10 and an office nook.
A wall of customizable storage is brush-finished and blends seamlessly into the home’s decor, and track lighting gives everything a soft glow.
Though the queen-sized bedroom nook currently can be closed off from the rest of the space with a curtain, a wall could probably be built between the two spaces, though you’d still have to go through the bedroom to access the bath. The good news is that the en-suite bath is just as lovely as the rest of the apartment, with a deep soaking tub and built-in shelving. A dressing area between bed and bath affords that New York dream of ample closet space.
And there are amenities! In addition to a full-time staff, you’ll find a landscaped roof deck, a swimming pool, a gym, his-and-hers saunas, a garage, a bike room, storage, and a central laundry room. Pets and in-unit washers and dryers are permitted, as is co-purchasing and subletting, with board approval.
