Charming Studio Loft with Direct Garden-Terrace Access in Prime Upper East Side

A rare indoor-outdoor opportunity in one of Manhattan's most distinguished residential neighborhoods, this charming studio loft combines prewar character, a flexible open layout, and direct access to a beautifully landscaped garden terrace.

The bright main living space is framed by three tall windows and a glass-paneled door overlooking the greenery. Original architectural detailsincluding substantial moldings and decorative trimbring warmth and character to the room, while dark flooring creates a striking contrast against the freshly painted white walls. The open proportions allow for comfortable living, sleeping, dining, and work-from-home areas.

The glass door leads directly to an expansive garden terrace surrounded by mature trees, flowering plants, climbing vines, and classic brick architecture. Furnished with outdoor dining tables, chairs, and umbrellas, this peaceful setting offers a wonderful place to enjoy morning coffee, outdoor meals, reading, or quiet relaxation away from the activity of the city.

A separate galley kitchen features extensive natural-wood cabinetry, black countertops, a white subway-tile backsplash, an under-mount sink, stainless-steel refrigerator, gas range, and additional open shelving. Industrial-style pendant lighting adds character while helping define the kitchen area.

The tiled bathroom includes a full bathtub with shower, pedestal sink, mosaic-tile walls, contemporary lighting, and a clean, neutral palette. A defined entry foyer provides separation from the main living space and enhances the apartment's functional layout.

Located on East 68th Street between Park and Madison Avenues, Apartment 3C places you in the heart of the Upper East Side, moments from Central Park, Museum Mile, Madison Avenue boutiques, neighborhood cafes, fine dining, gourmet markets, and convenient transportation.
