Description
Just listed! Contact me to schedule a weekday or weekend showing. First open house by appointment only this Saturday 4/12 and Sunday 4/13 from 1:00-3:00PM. Welcome to Residence #5AB, a one of a kind prewar two bedroom, two bath home in the heart of Carnegie Hill. This residence is the product of a rare combination of two units, resulting in an expansive layout that offers generous room dimensions and prewar details throughout. This presents a unique opportunity to live just one block from Central Park in a boutique co-op that allows 75% financing, guarantors, pied-a-terres, parents purchasing for children, parents purchasing with children, gifting, and washer/dryer installation with board approval. The entrance gallery opens to a gracious dining area with rich hardwood floors and a classic sunken living room in the backdrop. The living room has impressive 9’9” ceilings, prewar molding, and northern streetscape views overlooking 87th Street. Perfect for entertaining, the pass through kitchen offers a view into the living room. This windowed kitchen is appointed with stainless steel appliances and a windowed walk-in pantry to accommodate all of your kitchen storage needs. Positioned on the opposite end of the home providing optimal privacy, the first bedroom features two large closets and an archway that adds a touch of architectural sophistication. The second bedroom is massive in scale with two closets plus additional overhead storage to fulfill all of your wardrobe needs. Other notable features of this home include windows in every room with two windowed bathrooms, more closets than you can fill (8 in total), and versatility of space — the flexible layout allows for the kitchen to be relocated and expanded if desired. An additional bedroom can also be added to convert this into a 3 bedroom home. Please see the alternate layout for this configuration. 62 East 87th Street is a boutique co-op built in 1923 and positioned in a highly sought-after Upper East Side location between Park Avenue and Madison Avenue. Residents enjoy close proximity to all cultural destinations along Museum Mile including The Guggenheim, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and world-class dining and shopping. Amenities include a part-time super, storage, and laundry room. There is currently a reserve contribution of $51.96/month.

About Upper East Side
View All Upper East Side ListingsThe 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.
