Description

Heaven Off Fifth! Residence 4A is an incredibly special 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home just steps from Central Park with jaw dropping views of the Guggenheim, majestic townhouses, and even peaks of Central Park. Architectural grandeur abounds in this pin drop quiet, and light filled pre-war jewel with 9’4 beamed ceilings, casement windows, and a wood burning fireplace. Step into a gracious foyer to the gorgeous arched doorway and you will find a perfect "Classic 7" and the largest line in the building. There is a gracious dining room off the windowed eat-in kitchen, and a good sized office/maids room with a full bathroom. 4A’s three bedrooms are large, and one even offers peaks of Central Park. A washer/dryer is allowed by the building. With triple north, south and western exposures, gracious proportions, and jaw dropping original details, Residence 4A is one of a kind. And with only four apartments on the floor and a semi private landing, this home enjoys quiet privacy. Rounding out this idyllic space- a large storage unit also comes deeded with the apartment. 4 East 88th Street is located on one of the most charming blocks in the city, just steps from Central Park between Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue. Built in 1922, this stunning Georgian boutique coop is among the most striking buildings in the city. It has nine floors and 35 units, a full time doorman, and last but not least, a truly show-stopping landscaped roof deck overlooking the Guggenheim and the Park. Pets of any size are welcome. 4 East 88th Street has a wonderful live-in superintendent, a bike room, and a laundry room. 65% financing is allowed, and there is a 2% flip tax. Pied-a-terre, subletting, gifting, and guarantors are Allowed!

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
