Property Description

Renovated Prewar Two-Bedroom in Carnegie Hill Under $1,000,000!

This renovated two-bedroom home combines classic prewar charm with modern comfort and low maintenance. Located on the fifth floor of a charming Art Deco elevator co-op, the apartment offers a gracious layout, featuring a large dining foyer which leads to with an incredibly spacious living room, two well-proportioned bedrooms, and a renovated windowed kitchen and bathroom. High ceilings, skim-coated walls, and original prewar details add character and elegance throughout. The apartment is in excellent, move-in-ready condition.

The living room and primary bedroom enjoy lovely northern views over the gardens and rooftops of neighboring brownstones, providing pleasant natural light and an exceptionally quiet setting - a welcome retreat from the bustle of the city.

With monthly maintenance under $2,000, this home offers outstanding value in one of Manhattan's most desirable neighborhoods.

Built in 1933, 161 East 88th Street is an intimate 42-unit prewar building with a live-in superintendent, central laundry room, and storage available for a fee.

The location is quintessential Carnegie Hill. The 4/5/6 subway lines at 86th Street are around the corner, with the Q train also nearby. Whole Foods, Fairway, neighborhood boutiques, cafés, and restaurants are all within easy reach, while Central Park is just a few blocks away.
