About this House
Contract Signed. One BR Coop NO BOARD APPROVAL
Turning onto East 87 between York and East End Avenue feels like stepping back in time, where classic turn of the century NYC brownstones stand proudly on either side of the street.Located mid block, 517 is a five story, seven unit pre-war walkup.
Apartment 4W, a Sponsor Co-Op sale, is a traditional one bedroom railroad apartment with tremendous potential for a creative buyer looking for a project. Overlooking tree tops and brownstones across the way, the south facing bedroom with exposed brick, receives beautiful sunlight most all of the day and provides a peaceful, quiet oasis.
Adjacent to the comfortably sized bedroom is your walk-through dressing area currently offering ample storage which can easily be converted to a home office, or used as additional living space. The living/dining area located in the middle of the apartment, boasts 9'7" ceilings, as well as a wall of exposed brick. The walk-in kitchen on the back end of the apartment overlooks gardens below and receives northern light. Although not currently in the unit, washer/driers are permitted.
Best of all (and highly unusual for a Co-Op), there is NO BOARD APPROVAL, although prospective buyers will be required to complete a reasonable application. Bring your imagination as the possibilities for this little gem located a half block from Carl Schurz Park are many.
