Full-Floor 1BR | 700+ SF | Upper East Side | Available Aug. 01
Some apartments have a washer-dryer. This one has everything else.
If you know the Upper East Side, you know that prewar space like this doesn't come around often, and when it does, it goes fast. This rare full-floor one-bedroom spans 700+ square feet of sun-soaked, high-ceilinged living in one of Manhattan's most coveted and convenient neighborhoods.
The apartment itself feels like a different era, in the best possible way. Original hardwood floors, soaring 10-foot ceilings, and oversized windows on both the north and south sides give the space a warmth and grandeur that no new construction can replicate. And unlike most prewar apartments, this one comes with a fully modernized kitchen: brand-new stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher, and a stunning quartz countertop with a new sink and faucet. Extra bonus: small mini-office for all your WFH needs on the north side of the apartment. Classic bones, contemporary comfort.
The building is an immaculately maintained early 20th century townhouse, owner-operated with genuine pride. Only three flights up, with real neighbors and real character not a doorman building with a hundred units and paper-thin walls.
As for laundry, you're two minutes from drop-off service and a well-maintained laundromat nearby and frankly, freeing yourself from the laundry room schedule is a small price for everything else this apartment offers.
Step outside and you're a short stroll from Carl Schurz Park and the East River, less than two blocks from the 86th Street Express Q Train, and surrounded by Whole Foods, Fairway, great coffee, and some of the neighborhood's best local restaurants.
No pets. Available Aug 01. Apartments like this don't wait.
