One deeded parking space is included in the price. Fifteen floors up in East River Tower, this 685-square-foot one-bedroom looks southeast to west across the Manhattan skyline, Long Island City, and Downtown Brooklyn. The private balcony faces the sunset over the East River. Floor-to-ceiling windows and 9-foot ceilings carry that light throughout the whole apartment. A gracious foyer with a large closet opens to hardwood floors and an open living area built around the view. The kitchen has stainless-steel appliances, including a brand-new refrigerator, a tiled backsplash, generous cabinetry, and a breakfast bar; it also features a vented hood for those who enjoy cooking. The marble bath features a quartz vanity and a deep soaking Jacuzzi tub. - In-unit washer/dryer as well. East River Tower is a full-service condominium with a doorman, 24-hour security, a live-in superintendent, a fitness center, bike storage, an on-site garage, and landscaped grounds with a BBQ grill. The waterfront is the reason to be here. Halletts Cove Beach, Socrates Sculpture Park, and the East River esplanade are within a block. The Astoria ferry landing is three blocks away and offers service to the Upper East Side, Midtown, Roosevelt Island, Brooklyn, and FiDi, a commute most of Astoria doesn't have. Astoria Park, Rainey Park, Costco, and the neighborhood's restaurants and cafés are minutes away. N/W trains, buses, and Citi Bike round out the options. $177.64 monthly assessment runs through 2034 and funds capital improvements that have been completed, so there is no pending work. - Living room photos are virtually staged.
