Apartment 5M at 309 East 87th Street is a beautifully renovated and thoughtfully redesigned one-bedroom home that has been expertly converted into a two-bedroom residence, offering exceptional flexibility and stylish modern living. Renovated and custom designed only a few years ago, the apartment features high-end finishes throughout, creating a sophisticated and move-in-ready home in the heart of the Upper East Side. The layout is easily convertible back to its one bedroom layout by simply removing sliding doors. The original layout allows for a gracious and sun-filled open living and dining area, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The windowed kitchen has been tastefully renovated with quartz countertops, a honed marble herringbone backsplash, brass cabinet hardware and sink fixtures, and stainless-steel appliances including a new refrigerator and dishwasher. Picturesque views overlooking an architecturally beautiful church and treetops provide a charming and tranquil backdrop from every window in the apartment. The original living room was custom designed into a second bedroom that is enclosed by an elegant steel and glass sliding door, allowing natural light to flow throughout the space while offering privacy and versatility as a bedroom, home office, or den. The beautifully renovated bathroom features elegant Italian marble finishes, while new wide-plank oak floors add warmth and sophistication throughout the home. Additional features include through-wall air conditioning, an extraordinary amount of custom-fitted closet storage, and meticulous attention to detail at every turn. Combining thoughtful design, quality craftsmanship, and attractive open views, Apartment 5M is a turnkey residence that makes exceptional use of every square foot. 309 East 87th Street is a full-service and well-maintained 6-story co-op with 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, bike room, central laundry, garage with lobby access, and a serene, furnished courtyard.
