Listing Notes
Welcome to Residence 4K at The Hawthorne, a meticulously gut-renovated true 2 bed/2 bath corner unit featuring high-end finishes, thoughtful design, and exceptional functionality. Showings by appt only by building policy - easy to show! No detail has been overlooked, even the ones you won't see like the all new electric and updated plumbing. Upon entering, you're welcomed by a well-designed foyer with multiple customized closets and new recessed lighting, setting the tone for the level of craftsmanship found throughout. The all new wide-plank wood flooring flows seamlessly into the expansive living and dining area, where natural light creates a warm, inviting atmosphere for both everyday living and entertaining. The chef's kitchen (literally) has been beautifully crafted with sleek granite countersplash, complemented by custom white cabinetry with abundant storage. A suite of premium stainless steel appliances including Thermador and Fisher & Paykel, including a professional-grade gas range and pot filler, with a professionally designed layout makes daily cooking, serving and storing enjoyable and easy. Both bedrooms are generously sized and feature excellent storage, enhanced by sound-dampening low-pile carpet for added comfort (the kind you'll like). The bathrooms have been fully renovated with high-end fixtures, showcasing large-format tilework, glass-enclosed showers and tub, modern floating-style vanities, and backlit mirrors. The Hawthorne is a full-service, pet-friendly condop built in 1959, offering the flexibility of condo ownership with co-op value. No board interview and liberal subletting permitted. Amenities include a 24-hour doorman, live-in super, newly updated elevators, roof deck, bike room, storage, newly updated central laundry room, and an attached parking garage. Located on a quiet, tree-lined Midtown East block near Sutton Place, and adjacent to the iconic Lipstick Building, you're at the corner entrance of the 53rd St E/M/6 trains, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Equinox, SoulCycle, and some of the city's best dining, with easy access to the FDR Drive and cross town buses.
