Rare 3-Bedroom Co-op with 1.5 Baths & Storage in Prime Upper East Side
This is a rare opportunity to own a flexible and spacious home in the heart of the Upper East Side. Located on a quiet, tree-lined block just off Second Avenue, apartment 3E at 233 East 88th Street is a 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath co-op offering approximately 730 square feet of well-proportioned living space in a charming pre-war building. Whether you're seeking a functional 3-bedroom layout or envisioning a reimagined 2-bedroom with a generous primary suite, this apartment offers the perfect canvas to customize to your needs.
The home features hardwood floors throughout, high ceilings, and oversized south-facing windows that flood the space with natural light. The spacious living room and separate kitchen provide a solid foundation for a smart renovation or comfortable move-in as-is. Additional highlights include a rare half bath in a pre-war co-op, washer/dryer hook-up potential, and a dedicated 72-cubic-foot private storage unit in the basement.

The building is pet-friendly and allows co-purchasing, gifting, and subletting after two years of ownership (for up to four years within a six-year window). Pieds-à-terre and guarantors are also considered, offering excellent flexibility for buyers.
Situated just two blocks from the Q train and a short distance from the 4/5/6 subway lines, this location offers quick access to Midtown and beyond. You're also just blocks from Central Park, Carl Schurz Park, the East River Promenade, and a wide variety of shops, grocery stores, and restaurants that make Yorkville one of Manhattan's most livable neighborhoods.
With its ideal blend of space, light, and location-not to mention the upside potential-233 East 88th Street #3E is a standout value on the Upper East Side and a unique chance to create the home you've always envisioned.
