Welcome to Residence 17A at Schaefer Landing North — a stunning, sun-drenched corner apartment offering rare, unobstructed panoramic views of the East River, three iconic bridges, and the Manhattan and Brooklyn skylines. Perfectly perched on the water’s edge, this high-floor home captures breathtaking vistas through expansive walls of windows and benefits from desirable southwest exposure, flooding the space with natural light throughout the day. This spacious and thoughtfully laid-out two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence spans approximately 1,270 square feet and has been recently renovated with attention to both style and functionality. The kitchen is equipped stainless steel appliances, cabinetry, and flows seamlessly into the open living and dining areas—ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Both bedrooms are generously sized. The primary suite features a large walk-in closet and a luxurious ensuite bathroom finished in classic white Carrara marble. The bathroom includes a deep soaking tub, a separate glass-enclosed shower, and an expansive vanity with wall-to-wall cabinetry. A washer and dryer adds in-unit convenience. A 421A tax abatement is in place through 2032, providing another seven years of significant tax savings.
