Property Description
Situated on a quiet, picturesque Upper East Side block just moments from the Promenade, Carl Schurz Park, and the East River, Apartment 4W at 517 East 87th Street is a sun-filled and charming one-bedroom home with a flexible loft space. Light streams in through eight windows and three exposures-north, south, and west. Fabulous features include 10-foot-high ceilings, hardwood floors, exposed brick, a spacious living room with room for dining, a sun-filled windowed kitchen, in-unit laundry, and generous storage. The home's layout provides seamless entertaining and private living, highlighted by an over 22-foot living room with dining area flanked by two windows, and a fully outfitted kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher and built-in microwave, sleek quartz countertops complemented by a ceramic tile backsplash, generous cabinet storage, and a laundry closet with full-size washer and dryer. The bedroom is completely set apart from the rest of the home and enjoys lovely tree-lined block views, a huge walk-in closet, and a large loft area that offers exceptional flexibility. The loft can serve as a home office, additional storage space, or sleeping area allowing the main bedroom level to be utilized in a variety of ways depending on the owner's needs. The renovated bathroom features a seamless glass spa shower. This bright and lovely residence is situated within a beautiful townhouse co-op in one of the Upper East Side's most charming and tranquil locations. 517 East 87th Street is a boutique 5-story prewar 25'-wide townhouse co-op building that was built in 1925. The pet-friendly cooperative offers low monthly charges. Pieds-à-terre are permitted with board approval on a case-by-case basis. 517 East 87th Street is located between York and East End Avenues on a lovely, quiet block on the Upper East Side, a half block from the East River Promenade, Carl Shurz Park (with pickleball courts, a basketball court, and a small dog park), and Gracie Mansion, all with stunning views of the River. The proximity to Gracie Mansion makes the area safe and secure. There are several bus lines within a few blocks, Q subway train at 86th and Second Avenue, as well as an entrance to FDR Drive for a seamless escape from the city or a fast taxi ride downtown. The NYC Ferry, only a few blocks away, is a pretty transport option downtown to Wall Street with stops along the way.
