Description

Welcome to 435 E 85th Street, Garden Basement 5—a meticulously crafted garden-level oasis where every detail shines, blending functionality with undeniable charm. Step inside and be greeted by a spacious foyer, currently designed as the perfect work-from-home space. Beautifully refinished original hardwood floors run throughout, filling the space with warmth and character. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring top-tier appliances with a Viking range, commercial-grade exhaust fan, Liebherr refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, and sleek slate flooring. Custom solid hardwood maple shaker cabinets offer abundant storage, making the kitchen both spacious and highly functional. As you move into the living and dining area, sunlight streams through the custom, commercial-grade stainless steel paned glass door, inviting you to your own private garden oasis. This expansive 550 sq ft outdoor space is perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or gardening, with a water spigot, electrical outlets, and a storage shed for added convenience. Inside, the living room boasts two large California closets with solid maple doors and trim, while a stunning Jean Prouvé lighting fixture brings a modern flair to the dining area. The spacious bedroom is a true retreat, with two large windows that overlook your private garden. It’s complete with another California closet and solid maple doors. The bathroom features a Robern AiO medicine cabinet with integrated OM sound, offering both style and functionality. The living room and bedroom are also equipped with through-the-wall A/C units, ensuring year-round comfort. Built in 1958, 435 E 85th Street is a boutique, four-story co-op nestled on a peaceful, tree-lined street. The building allows subletting after three years of residency and welcomes pied-à-terres, parents buying for children, co-purchasers, guarantors, and gifts (subject to board approval). General and bike storage are available for a nominal monthly fee, with no current waitlist. The building also features a live-in superintendent, a laundry room, a newly installed virtual doorman system, and a communal outdoor garden for residents to enjoy. Located just three blocks from the 86th Street Second Avenue Subway, residents have all the Upper East Side’s finest amenities right at their doorstep.

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.
