Description

Show-stopping, state of the art, and steps from Central Park! Residence 2B at 4 East 88th Street is a 2 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom modern masterpiece, renovated to absolute perfection and on the best block in Carnegie Hill. Upon opening the door you are met with a dramatic entrance – striking glossy Brazilian walnut floors below, custom lighting above, and lush tree lined views of the Guggenheim and stunning townhomes in front of you. The open concept living room, dining room, and den are spacious and flow beautifully for entertaining. Only the highest end materials, and meticulous attention to detail were used in creating this impeccable home; central air conditioning, Lutron lighting system, Niles speakers throughout, and Robertshaw thermostats in every room. Enter the chef’s eat-in kitchen and you are met with clean lines, top of the line appliances, custom cabinetry, Caesarstone countertops, and a breakfast bar for casual dining. The kitchen is so large and has so much storage, it almost feels suburban. Of course it has it all – a Subzero refrigerator and wine fridge, Bertazzoni range, Miele dishwasher and stackable washer dryer, and a Panasonic microwave. Down the living room hallway is a chic powder room and the the luxe primary bedroom suite. This king size room is a true urban oasis with custom lighting, and a wall of built-in closets. Wake up and look out onto lovely treetops to the light reflecting off the most majestic architecture in all of New York City. You could compare the primary bathroom to a five star spa with double sinks, Limestone counters, Nuheat radiant heated floors, and large built-in storage cabinets. There are both rain and handheld shower heads, and a Toto toilet. The second bedroom is also spacious and features a built-in desk with plenty of storage and closets. It’s en-suite bathroom features a large stall shower, Toto toilet, a custom La Cava sink, a tall storage cabinet, and radiant heat floors. There is ‘turn key’ and then there is Residence 2B where literally no detail has been overlooked. Homes of this caliber that strike the balance of beauty, condition, location, function, flow, and energy do not come around often in New York City, let alone in such a gorgeous building and prestigious block as 4 East 88th Street. Adding to its perfection, a storage unit also comes with the apartment. 4 East 88th Street is located just steps from Central Park between Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue. Built in 1922, this stunning Georgian building is one of the most beautiful and charming in the city. It has nine floors and 35 units, a full time doorman and a gorgeous landscaped roof deck overlooking the Guggenheim and the park. Pets are welcome. 4 East 88th Street has a live- in superintendent, a bike room, and a laundry room. 65% financing is allowed, and there is a 2% flip tax. Pied a terre, subletting, gifting, and guarantors are permitted.

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.
