Why It’s So Popular:
Welcome to 173 East 74th Street, Apartment #3B! Upon entering this contemporary cutie, you’re greeted by a large foyer equipped with double built-in closets for all your storage needs. From there, the floorplan forks: kitchen and living room to the right, sleeping quarters and bathroom to the left.
The flexible living and dining room is illuminated by twin exposures on the south-facing wall. High ceilings create the perfect canvas to showcase your art collection. It’s also an ideal surface to install multiple open shelves for even more décor and storage. The far corner of the room is the perfect spot for a dining table, as shown in the listing photos.
The gorgeous windowed kitchen sits right off this massive living space. It’s bisected by a hallway, with the oven and stove on one side and the refrigerator on the other side. Both areas contain a plethora of cabinet space, making it an ideal setup for home chefs. Modern conveniences like a dishwasher and choice aesthetic details like marble countertops set this space apart.

And since this home is pet-friendly, there’s also room for a cat or dog bed (provided your furry friend is 25 pounds or less).
