A Sprawling Home in the City: Welcome to Residence 2AJK, a rare gem combination of 3 units spanning 2625SF plus an additional 550SF private terrace overlooking the John Findlay promenade and beautiful, unobstructed and protected East River views. This huge 3-bedroom, 3 bathroom apartment features North, East and Western exposures with oversized windows in all rooms, including baths, allowing for an abundance of natural light. The morning sunlight is spectacular! Loftlike and European graciousness with an open living plan, this is the perfect apartment for relaxation, everyday living and entertainment with the flexibility of a home office/guest suite and private outdoor dog run/terrace. Enter into the large foyer and an expansive 50 feet of east facing living and dining areas with gallery walls to showcase your art. Enjoy morning sunrises, yachts sailing by and evening lights twinkling across the East River. The open kitchen overlooks the dining room and is graced with granite counter tops, top of the line stainless steel appliances and ample storage space for the at-home-chef. Designed by Randy Ginzberg, the kitchen seamlessly flows into the den and family room with custom cabinets and built-in steel wet bar, ideal for preparing those summer cocktails on your terrace! Vintage doors on barn sliders lead you into the huge third bedroom and/or home office with its en-suite Philippe Stark fitted bathroom and private, hallway access - perfect for separating business from the apartment or the ultimate privacy for guests and family members. This west wing of the home also boasts a huge 7 x 12.5 walk in closet or additional room offering multiple uses and fantastic storage. At the East Side of the apartment, the primary suite directly faces the river with breathtaking morning sunlight and views while the 2nd bedroom faces west to the peaceful courtyard and the terrace for light and privacy. Both bedrooms enjoy en-suite bathrooms and large closets. Owned by the same family for 35 years and renovated an impressive 4 times with major architectural and design teams to create a sophisticated and European style home, this waterfront property must be experienced first-hand. Drinks on the terrace at sunset, morning coffees overlooking the water and the opportunity to create your own dream home and lush garden landscape. An in-unit washer/dryer, through the wall AC and lovely hardwood floors throughout, complete this wonderful home. 45 East End Avenue was built in 1951 by the acclaimed Emery Roth & Sons. This white glove building has a full-time doorman (the staff here are truly marvelous!) laundry room, an on-site parking garage, storage & bike room, a fitness center as well as a lovely landscaped roof deck. Perched over the promenade, 45 East End shareholders enjoy easy access to the outdoors; the John Findlay Walkway, the Carl Schurz dog run and park, the 90th St Ferry Terminal and the 96th and 79th street access to the FDR, allowing for an easy commute downtown, to airports, the Hamptons as well as upstate.
