Description

Big, bright, spacious, and priced to sell. Welcome home to this immaculate, move-in ready Junior 4 nestled in the heart of Yorkville. Currently configured as a massive one bedroom but easily converted to two with the addition of a wall, this peaceful oasis offers everything you could ask for at a price that cannot be beat.

Some fabulous features of this incredible find:
- Dual-exposures north and west
- Ample closet space throughout the apartment
- Ability to easily convert into a 2 Bedroom with dedicated closet space and windows in every room
- Spotless kitchen with cherrywood cabinets & granite counter tops
- Refinished, original hardwood floors

The building can only be described as one of those hidden Upper East Side gems: A boutique elevator cooperative with offerings including a private gated courtyard, laundry facilities, common storage, bike room, and live-in super. 75% financing permitted. Guarantors & co-purchasing OK, pets welcome. A brand new elevator has just been installed this year.

Spend your days strolling Carl Schurz park, the East River Promenade, or stay active at one of Asphalt Green's premier sports facilities. Shop at the likes of Fairway, Whole Foods, and the quaint gourmet grocers that dot the Upper East Side, all within minutes of your front door. Too busy to cook? This stretch of Yorkville offers more restaurants than we can name within blocks of your new home. Conveniently located by the 2nd Avenue Q-train, 4/5/6, 86th Street crosstown bus, and the 90th Street ferry terminal (servicing midtown and downtown Manhattan).

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.
