Description

Apartment 4JK at 55 East 87th Street is a spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home in a full-service postwar Carnegie Hill co-op, situated halfway between Park Avenue and Madison Avenue. The layout is highly functional, with a clear delineation between the private and public spaces, as well as a notably low monthly maintenance.

The generously proportioned, sunny living and dining room, as well as the 5 x 20 balcony, face south onto tree-lined 87th Street, with a beautiful architectural view.

The renovated Rutt kitchen is highly functional with custom cabinetry and appliances from brands like Subzero and Thermador. The new Thermador oven was recently installed.

Down the hallway are the three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and in-unit Washer-Dryer. The massive primary bedroom suite is uncharacteristically large for a home like this - truly a special rarity. The bedroom measures 15 x 18, and features a home office with built-in desk and cabinetry, dressing hall with California closets, and en-suite Carrara marble bathroom with double Kohler sinks, Toto toilet, and Lefroy Brooks hardware. The huge second bedroom also has an en-suite bathroom, and the third bedroom is serviced with a third bathroom in the bedroom hallway, also perfect for guest use. Both of these bathrooms feature beige marble Ann Sacks tiles, Toto toilets, and Waterworks fixtures.

The Parc is a long-established co-op on a quiet block. Building amenities include a bike room, back garden deck, and garage, as well as a live-in resident manager and 24-hour doorman. This most-convenient location can't be beat, a block from Central Park, the Guggenheim Museum, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and Neue Gallery, as well as all major transportation. The nearby boutiques, markets, and restaurants are countless. The building permits pieds-à-terre, co-purchasing, subletting for 2 years and gifting on a case-by-case basis. There is a 2% flip tax.
