Description

Welcome to this split two-bedroom, two-bath South facing Upper East Side co-op apartment. The apartment has tree-top townhouse views overlooking a quiet East 85th Street block adjacent to Carl Schurz Park. The foyer opens up to an expansive living room with bedrooms on either side. The Master bedroom allows for a king-size bed with both nightstands and dressers. An ensuite bathroom features a wood and white vanity and travertine marble tiles and flooring along with a European half glass shower in use with the white porcelain tub. A large cedar walk-in closet separates the bedroom and bathroom. The renovated kitchen features an extensive collection of Quakermaid red birch cabinets with dovetail joinery in the Shaker style, GE Profile range and microwave, Jenn Air refrigerator, and Miele dishwasher. A breakfast bar, black Caesarstone countertops and a Venis Porcelanosa floor complete this cook's kitchen. On the other side of the living room is the second, equally large bedroom, currently in use as a den and also featuring a large walk-in cedar closet. The second all-white porcelain bathroom can be ensuite or opened up to the hallway for guest use. Custom-built radiator covers are vented and conceal through-the-wall air conditioning and heating units in each room; abundant closets complete the home. 515 East 85th St. is a boutique, full-service building near Carl Schurz Park and the East River Esplanade. Residents enjoy a full-time doorman, live-in super, common laundry, bike and storage space (storage units are available for rent) and a small garage. This financially solid co-op allows pets, pied a terres, and subletting with board approval. Ideally situated on a quiet tree-lined street close to local restaurants, Whole Foods and Fairway, and the express bus, cross town bus, shuttle to Wall Street (only 20 minutes away) and the Q line and 4/5/6 subways only a few blocks away.

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.
