Property Description
A Gracious Upper East Side Home Steps from Carl Schurz Park · Move-In Ready · Traditional and Flexible Layout Residence 9B at 520 East 86th Street offers an exceptional opportunity on the Upper East Side. Ideally located near Carl Schurz Park and the East River Esplanade, this residence places some of the neighborhood's most desirable outdoor spaces and conveniences right at your doorstep. This move-in ready cooperative combines generous proportions, classic architectural detail, and modern updates, all within one of the neighborhood's most well-run full-service buildings. The Residence A gracious, oversized entry foyer welcomes you into a residence of genuine scale and flow. The long front exposure and soaring ceilings lend the home an airy, light-filled quality while the original parquet floors throughout speak to the building's enduring craftsmanship. Currently configured as a spacious two-bedroom with a third den/staff room and 2.5 baths, the layout offers an intuitive separation of living and sleeping quarters.

Living & Entertaining The expansive living and dining areas flow seamlessly together, equally suited to everyday living and gracious entertaining. At the heart of the living room, a functioning wood-burning fireplace, with wood supplied by the building, provides warmth and the kind of character that simply cannot be manufactured. Renovated Interiors The kitchen has been tastefully updated, and includes a wet bar area, and the bathrooms have been recently renovated with marble and clean, contemporary fixtures, inclusive of new underfloor plumbing, ensuring that the bones of the home are as sound as its aesthetic. An in-unit washer and dryer rounds out the practical conveniences expected by today's discerning buyer. Storage & Flexibility A private storage unit in the basement transfers with the apartment, providing valuable additional space for a variety of storage needs. The Building 520 East 86th Street is a distinguished full-service cooperative offering a full-time doorman, live-in resident manager, fitness center, on-site laundry, and bike storage. There is an outdoor seating area and sizable courtyard with a children's play area.
