NEW TO MARKET -- LUXURY 2-BR FOR THE PRICE OF A STUDIO!

34TH FLOOR, CORNER, 2-BR/3-BTH, WITH LARGE BALCONY AND OPEN CITY AND EAST RIVER VIEWS.

Welcome to 303 East 57th Street, Apartment 34A. The moment you enter the spacious foyer with custom millwork and a walk-in coat closet, you are struck by the expansive views over the East River, and south towards iconic towers like the Chrysler building.

Stunning views are framed by enormous windows from every room. The light-filled rooms are wonderfully oversized, with 9-foot ceilings, and flow seamlessly from the public rooms to the sleeping quarters. Just off the corner living room is the large, south-facing balcony that adds to the drama while providing lovely outdoor space. There are beautiful hardwood floors throughout.

Dine in the windowed Chef's kitchen - with Sub-Zero fridge, Bosch dishwasher and granite countertops - perfect for morning coffee and watching the sunrise over the East River. All cabinetry is custom-made. There is also a custom, built-in desk, Miele washer/dryer and even a service entrance.

Both oversized bedrooms easily accommodate large furnishings. Beautiful south views are captured by the large windows - highlighting New York City's daytime light and nighttime shimmer. The primary bedroom features an en-suite bathroom with vanity table. There is also a third bathroom off the foyer that serves as a powder room for guests. Closets are abundant. Indeed, when it comes to closets and storage, this home is a New Yorker's dream.

303 East 57th Street (The Excelsior) is a white-glove co-op, with every desirable amenity. The staff includes 24-hour doormen, concierge and a resident manager. The fitness center is complemented by a 20,000 square-foot health spa with indoor/outdoor saltwater pool and a common roof deck. There is an on-site parking garage and a circular driveway for easy drop-off and pickup. Pied-a-terres and pets allowed.
