Welcome to Residence #5AB, a one of a kind prewar two bedroom, two bath home in the heart of Carnegie Hill. This residence is the product of a rare combination of two units, resulting in an expansive layout that offers generous room dimensions and prewar details throughout. This presents a unique opportunity to live just one block from Central Park in a boutique co-op that allows 75% financing, guarantors, pied-a-terres, parents purchasing for children, parents purchasing with children, gifting, and washer/dryer installation with board approval. The entrance gallery opens to a gracious dining area with rich hardwood floors and a classic sunken living room in the backdrop. The living room has impressive 9’9” ceilings, prewar molding, and northern streetscape views overlooking 87th Street. Perfect for entertaining, the pass through kitchen offers a view into the living room. This windowed kitchen is appointed with stainless steel appliances and a windowed walk-in pantry to accommodate all of your kitchen storage needs. Positioned on the opposite end of the home providing optimal privacy, the first bedroom features two large closets and an archway that adds a touch of architectural sophistication. The second bedroom is massive in scale with two closets plus additional overhead storage to fulfill all of your wardrobe needs. Other notable features of this home include windows in every room with two windowed bathrooms, more closets than you can fill (8 in total), and versatility of space — the flexible layout allows for the kitchen to be relocated and expanded if desired. An additional bedroom can also be added to convert this into a 3 bedroom home. Please see the alternate layout for this configuration. 62 East 87th Street is a boutique co-op built in 1923 and positioned in a highly sought-after Upper East Side location between Park Avenue and Madison Avenue.
