Description

Oversized One Bedroom with Flexible Two-Bedroom Potential Just Off Fifth Avenue! Perfectly positioned just off Fifth Avenue, this sun-filled, south-facing prewar residence stands out for its exceptional scale and rare flexibility.

Currently configured as an oversized one bedroom with a formal dining area, the layout can easily be reimagined to accommodate a well-proportioned second bedroom, similar to other B-line residences in the building. This is a rare opportunity to secure true space, light, and long-term value, especially at a price point under $1M.

Approximately 9-foot beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, custom mahogany built-ins, and a wood-burning fireplace create a warm, classic backdrop. The king-size, south-facing bedroom is filled with natural light throughout the day, while the expansive living and dining footprint offers multiple layout options as needs evolve. The bathroom has been recently renovated.

The windowed kitchen features premium appliances by Sub-Zero, Gaggenau, and Miele, along with rich cabinetry and thoughtful storage. A gracious foyer, restored windowed bath, and seamless flow between rooms complete this elegant and highly livable home.

Located just steps from Central Park, 7 East 85th Street is a pristine, prewar cooperative with a live-in superintendent, landscaped courtyard, laundry, potential for private storage, and bike room. A parking garage sits next door, and nearby transportation includes the 4/5/6 trains, crosstown M86 SBS, and multiple bus lines.

Pets permitted with board approval. Financing up to 7 5% allowed. Pied-à-terre and flexible purchasing considered on a case-by-case basis. 3% flip tax applies.

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.
