Description

Apartment 15F, spread over approximately 1600 sq./ft. was gut renovated in 2017. The renovation included very high-end finishes, from the white custom designed German kitchen cabinets that incorporates a windowed breakfast bar and a full set of stainless steel full-size Miele appliances (including a wine refrigerator and coffee station) to the 8 inch wide engineered distressed oak floor and the exceptional mill work. The bathrooms are an oasis of calm with floor to ceiling tiles, marble counters, one-half inch frameless glass enclosures, and multiple shower heads. With 9 foot ceilings throughout the apartment, the approximate 35 foot living/dining expanse with open views to the south and custom recessed LED perimeter lighting, allows for exceptional entertainment space. Apartment 15F has been grandfathered to permit washer/dryer in the apartment. The apartment incorporates a FULL SIZE WASHER and separate FULL SIZE VENTED CLOTHES DRYER.

Located in the Henderson Place historic district and a half block from Carl Schurz park with its East River promenade, dog runs, children's playground, and bucolic walks, 525 East 86th Street is a full service cooperative, providing a sense of serenity in one of Manhattan's most prestigious neighborhoods. Not only is the building set in the quiet of a residential street void of commercial enterprise, but its location provides for convenience to the rest of Manhattan. The crosstown M86 bus is on the corner, the Q train to Midtown West Side is two blocks away, the 4, 5, and 6 trains to Grand Central and beyond to Wall Street are just two blocks further and if you're a frequent flyer, LaGuardia Airport is a fifteen minute drive (25 minutes in heavy traffic). Whole Foods, Fairway, Best Buy, a host of local gourmet shops, and an almost untold number of restaurants, from pizza "slice joints" to fine dining are just a couple of 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.
