Residence 2GH at 342 East 53rd Street is a beautifully renovated and intelligently combined 2-bedroom, 2-bath cooperative located in a charming 50-unit elevator building in the heart of Turtle Bay. Offering approximately 1,100 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this inviting home features four exposures, rich hardwood floors, and good natural light throughout the day.

The spacious living room easily accommodates both living and dining areas, with a windowed dining alcove that provides the perfect setting for entertaining or working from home. The renovated kitchen offers custom cabinetry, generous counter space, and a built-in china cabinet for added storage and style.

The king-sized primary suite is a serene retreat with room for additional furnishings, a large walk-in closet, and an elegantly updated bath with refined tilework and modern fixtures. The second bedroom is equally comfortable, complete with another oversized walk-in closet and great light. A washer/dryer adds modern
convenience.

Built in 1958 and converted to a co-op in 1984, 342 East 53rd Street offers residents a renovated lobby, courtyard garden, bike storage, on-site laundry, and a live-in superintendent. The building is pet-friendly, 100% shareholder-owned, and features secure Butterfly entry. Guarantors, co-purchasers, and gifting are
permitted, and pied-à-terres are welcome. Best of all-there's no flip tax.

Ideally situated on a quiet, tree-lined block in Midtown East, this home is moments from world-class dining, shopping, Whole Foods, the United Nations, and
multiple subway and bus lines.

A rare blend of space, comfort, and convenience in one of Manhattan's most desirable neighborhoods.
