Why It’s So Popular

With a split floorplan, a wood-burning fireplace, and all the built-in shelves you could ever want, 315 East 68th Street #3F is the moment.

The front door leads you almost directly into the home’s sizable galley kitchen. A massive window floods light into the room, causing sunshine to dapple off the dramatic checkerboard tiling and black lacquered cabinetry. But don’t make the mistake of thinking that this space is all style and no substance: a double oven and generous pantry ensure this room passes the test for even the pickiest home chef. 

From there, make your way into the dedicated dining space — a true New York City rarity. Gather your closest friends and family for a homemade meal underneath warm wooden ceiling beams, while a ceiling fan ensures comfort year-round. But our favorite part of this room is the hidden closet. There’s so much you could do with this secret space, from storage for your special occasion serveware to a cheeky little bar to impress your dinner guests.

The sophisticated wood beams continue in the living room and lead the eye to the sweeping wall of built-in shelves, which are perfect for books, artwork, and knick-knacks.
