Description

Apartment 3E, a true 2 bedroom/1 bathroom corner unit, is optimally laid out and generously sized. A long entry hallway brings you into the apartment's spacious foyer. From there you are treated to an open, flowing floor plan. The open living room, dining room, and kitchen concept gives you the ability to have it all and also offers additional space for a designated home office. The kitchen which has been opened and fully renovated features a 3-seat peninsula, quartz countertops, quality appliances including Bertazzoni range, Liebherr refrigerator, KitchenAid dishwasher and Bosch microwave, undermount cabinet lighting, and ample cabinet space including pull-out pantry. Another hallway leads to the fully renovated bathroom and two bedrooms. The bathroom, renovated in 2018, features white subway tile from floor to ceiling and tub shower with sliding glass doors. The two bedrooms are substantially sized and are located across the hall from one another. The closets don't disappoint; there are 6 total closets in the apartment including coat closet, tremendous 'Costco' closet, linen closet, 2 master bedroom closets, and semi-walk-in closet in the 2nd bedroom. Each closet is custom shelved with organizers and has lights that automatically turn on when opened. The southern exposure in the living room, dining room, kitchen and master bedroom is warming and pleasant. Additional details include: hardwood floors throughout, detailed crown and base molding, recessed LED high hat lighting with Lutron dimmers, ceiling soundproofing, solid core doors, Google smart home and Ubiquiti Mesh WiFi system, Hunter Douglas custom window treatments, new double pane city quiet windows, hvac temperature control in every room, built-in mounted televisions with intra-wall wiring, and outlets equipped with USB throughout. Your next home awaits!

309 East 87th Street is a full service co-operative building located on 87th Street between 1st and 2nd Avenue. The building's first-class staff includes 24/7 doorman service, live-in superintendent, and handymen/porters. The lobby and hallways have been fully renovated, elevators have been replaced, as well as various other capital improvements. The healthiness of the building's financial condition is illustrated by the attractively low maintenance levels throughout the building. In 2014, the building replaced the windows in all apartments. Optimally located; only one block from the nearest Q subway stop, close to convenient shopping like Whole Foods and Fairway as well as Carl Schurz Park and Central Park. Pets are allowed. Storage, bike storage, and parking available on site. Laundry room located on first floor (not in basement). New outdoor common backyard being redone by the building for residents use and will be coming soon.

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.
