When you enter this bright, renovated, pre-war, one-bedroom apartment, you will be greeted by a self-contained home office area (complete with built-in wood cabinetry and shelving), followed by a gracious sunken living room, which faces a quiet and charming tree-lined street on the Upper East Side.  This apartment is situated above grade, so you are elevated from street level, and bestowed with lots of light.  Both living room and bedroom have 10'2" ceilings, and the generously-sized living room can accommodate a cozy dining area.  Both kitchen and bath were renovated, and bedroom was outfitted with Citi-Quiet windows, so all you need to do is bring your toothbrush!  Notably, every unit (there are only 20) comes with a designated storage area in the basement, where there are complimentary and well-maintained laundry facilities.  Additionally, this stately and well-maintained coop building is just one block from the beautiful Carl Schurz Park, which encompasses a waterfront promenade, 2 dog runs, a large playground, basketball courts, and shady lawns.  Noteworthy restaurants and bars in the area: East End Kitchen, The Writing Room, Infirmary NYC, Sushi of Gari, Donguri, Erminia Roman Restaurant, Maison Kayser UES, Sistina, Meijin Ramin, Gilroy, The Penrose and Ottomanelli Cafe.  Local amenities: Beyoglu Garden Marketplace, Fairway & Whole Foods.  Transportation: 4,5,6 at Lexington Avenue & 86th Street; M86, M31 and M15 buses; and the long-awaited 2nd Avenue subway line is slated to open in December 2016, with an entrance at East 84th Street and 2nd Avenue.  1st Open House: Sunday, 3/20.
