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.
