Overview of 205 East 88th Street

205 East 88th Street is a charming prewar walkup co-op located in the vibrant Upper East Side of Manhattan. This building is part of a small enclave of six cooperatives, offering a unique community feel while providing easy access to the best of city living. The building features on-site laundry facilities, a part-time superintendent, and a porter, ensuring residents enjoy both convenience and comfort. The co-op allows for pied-à-terre arrangements, co-purchasing, and gifting, all subject to board approval, making it an attractive option for various buyers, including investors who can sublet immediately after purchase with board consent.

The apartments at 205 East 88th Street are characterized by their spacious layouts and classic finishes. A typical junior one-bedroom unit boasts hardwood floors, high ceilings, and an open kitchen equipped with modern appliances, including a dishwasher. The generous living spaces often feature French doors leading to bright bedrooms, which come with ample closet space. Notably, the building's pet policy permits one cat per unit, catering to feline lovers while maintaining a tranquil environment for all residents.

Residents benefit from the prime location, just blocks away from multiple transit options, including the 4, 5, 6, and Q subway lines, facilitating easy commutes throughout the city. The neighborhood is rich with dining, shopping, and recreational opportunities, with Whole Foods conveniently located nearby. This combination of accessibility and lifestyle amenities makes 205 East 88th Street a desirable address for those seeking a quintessential Upper East Side experience.

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
