Welcome home to your tranquil urban oasis! Bring your contractor and create the perfect retreat from the hustling, bustling city. Located in the special Upper East Side neighborhood of Yorkville, you are not only moments away from the East Side River and the cherished Carl Shurz Park but also in close proximity to the second avenue subway and the reliable crosstown 86th street bus. Facing southeast, the living room receives beautiful natural light. You are also overlooking a quiet courtyard with lots of greenery. The kitchen is currently closed and separate, but could be opened to create a more loft-like floorplan. There is plenty of space to create separate living and sleeping areas. There are also two deep closets to meet all of your storage needs. 525 E 86th Street is a well-established, full-service, post-war cooperative with a warm, friendly staff that includes 24-hour doormen and a live-in resident manager. There is a lobby-level windowed gym, central laundry room, storage, bike room, and on-site parking garage. Pets and pied-a-terres are permitted. Building allows 70% financing. Please note, there is an ongoing assessment of $92.91 per month through November 30, 2029 for window replacement.
