This pre-war, top-floor 2-bedroom apartment is located on a quiet tree-lined Upper East Side street near parks, shopping, cafes, restaurants and transportation including the new 2nd Avenue subway. The apartment's meticulous renovation, solid oak floors throughout, 9.5" ceilings and ample storage space makes it a move-in-ready gem. The apartment's entry foyer leads to a large living room and dining area with open north city views. The windowed kitchen is anchored by the honed granite counter tops and stainless steel Kitchen-Aid appliances. The sky-lit bathroom features beautiful tumbled marble tile. The bedrooms are nicely sized and are bright and airy. All of the walls have been skim coated, new through-the-wall air-conditioning are included and the living room is wired for surround sound with in-the-wall wiring.

This intimate, elevator building was built in 1910 and has been a stable cooperative since 1968. There are 5 floors and 20 apartments and a strong sense of community in this very friendly building. Especially handy is the free laundry room and free common storage (no wait). The super lives in the building next door. The fabulous Carl Schurz Park?which includes a beautiful waterfront promenade, large playgrounds, a dog run (building is pet-friendly) and gardens? is only half a block from the building's entrance. Restaurants and shopping are plentiful in the neighborhood. Commerce on 86th Street features Fairway, Whole Foods, and more. Transportation is also easily accessible and getting better with the Second Avenue subway expected to open later this year.
