Description

Steps away from the Guggenheim Museum off Central Park, this sunny one-bedroom apartment is located on the top floor of a charming, pre-war elevator building in the Carnegie Hill district. The apartment has nearly 10' ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors throughout, and a pass-through kitchen that opens to the living room. Large windows provide abundant natural light and a pleasant view of a quiet tree lined street that ends at Central Park. A generously sized bedroom has spacious closets and overhead storage space. A renovated bathroom has a pedestal sink, cast iron bath shower/tub and white subway tiles. The apartment is equipped with recently installed window blinds, through the wall A/C units and the kitchen appliances including a dishwasher.

20 East 88th Street is a well maintained, boutique elevator cooperative with a part-time super and on-site laundry room. The lobby and hallways were tastefully renovated recent years. The building is close access to the finest cultural experiences the city has to offer, Central Park, Museum Mile, and Madison Avenue shopping on your corner. Multiple bus options in all directions as well as the 4, 5, 6 subway lines are all within a 5-minute walking distance. Subletting, co-purchasing and pied--terre usage are permitted with board approval. Dogs are not allowed.

About Upper East Side

View All Upper East Side Listings

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its quiet, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
