47 E 88TH Street #3B

Grand scale classic 7 into 6 in fine 1929 Carnegie Hill prewar building. Only a block from Central Park on Manhattans Upper East Side, this 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath apartment is in a very well-managed and well-maintained coop which has street level retail income, excellent financials and very low monthly maintenance fees. The rooms in this pristine apartment are quite large and have new thermopane windows and beautiful hardwood floors. The nearly 25 living room has a wood-burning fireplace and high-quality built-in bookcases and cabinetry. The living room and 3 large bedrooms (one currently set up as a library/den) face west over Madison Avenue. The eat-in kitchen with washer and dryer was enlarged by incorporating the staff room, and a powder room was created which is accessed off the gallery. The spacious gallery and very large formal dining room complete the picture for this very livable apartment. Only one other apartment shares the landing. The apartment comes with a 5 x 6 storage cage in the basement.Building staff provide a high level of service with full-time doormen (two at the door for most of the day), porters and a resident superintendent. The large lobby has elegant prewar details and is beautifully decorated. There is a gym ($500 per year per apartment), laundry, bike storage and a community room, all located in the immaculate basement. Mail and newspapers are distributed to the apartments daily. Pet friendly. 2% flip tax paid by buyer.
