Description

Exceptional Value High Floor Upper East Side One Bedroom Home With River Views

Perched on the 21st floor of a full-service building, located in the tranquil Yorkville neighborhood along East End Avenue, this desirable home features East River and Carl Schurz Park views.

Apartment 21C offers a well-designed, generously proportioned layout. Striking eastern exposures fill the home with natural light and river views. The oversized living room has ample space for dining, an ideal place to relax or entertain.

The hallway, just off the large foyer, creates a separation of space and privacy between the living room and the bedroom. The bedroom has two closets and the bathroom is adjacent. Other perks of this home include great storage space (total of four closets) and hardwood floors.

Without any street exposure, this home is pin-drop quiet. A true oasis!

Located along the charming townhouses of Henderson Place Historic District near East End Avenue, on a quiet part of 86th Street void of commercial enterprise, 525 E 86th Street is a well-established, full-service, post-war cooperative just half a block from Carl Schurz Park and the East River Promenade. The building has a warm, friendly staff that includes 24-hour doormen and a live-in resident manager.

There is a lobby-level windowed gym, central laundry room, storage, bike room, and on-site parking garage. Call apartment 21C home and enjoy the natural beauty and greenery of Carl Schurz Park, a true NYC hidden gem, as your very own backyard. An oasis in the UES, the 15-acre park includes dog runs, Gracie Mansion, children’s playground, lovely walks, and the perfect place for riding a bike or enjoying a day outside.

Convenient transportation options include the new Second Avenue Q train just minutes away on 86th Street, the 4 5 6 trains just a few blocks further, numerous bus lines including the crosstown to the West side, and the NYC Ferry service from E 90th St. From the Mansion restaurant on the corner, a favorite local spot, to some of the city’s top restaurants, enjoy easy access to all that the UES and the city have to offer. Pets and pied-a-terres are permitted. Building allows 70% financing.
