Property Description for 19 East 88th Street, 7-C

Call for an appointment and you'll fall in Love with this classic 1 bedroom with formal dining room and bath and a half. Easy conversion to 2 bed, but as is, is a fabulous apartment for gracious living and entertaining. The large windowed kitchen is in original condition, but is spacious and is complimented by a large butler pantry. The entry foyer almost a room unto itself, is the central point from which all rooms emanate: to the left is the hall (and powder room), leading to the kitchen and bedroom, there is an arched entry to the dining room and to the right, the grand sunken living room with its high beamed ceilings, crown moldings and beautiful wall of bookcases with retractable reading shelves. The whole apartment has a southern exposure and while it has a city view is flooded with light. The Master bedroom features two double deep closets plus the dressing room with another walk-in closet and a full bath. The apartment is carpeted over hardwood floors and is in excellent original condition. This is one of the most sought after full service, co-ops in New York, with its beautifully restored Art Deco Lobby, and fabulous roof deck overlooking the Central Park reservoir, steps from Central Park and the museum mile, in fabulous Carnegie Hill with its numerous famous private schools and part of the P.S. 2 school district. Close to all mass transit, notable restaurants, and shopping. It doesn’t get any better!.

Carnegie Hill | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Carnegie Hill is a small neighborhood at the northern tip of the Upper East Side that borders Central Park. It is steeped in history, great wealth, architecture and culture. It is known for its world-class museums and its rows of historic mansions. Nothing much changes here as the entire area is landmarked, preventing the proliferation of high-rise developments. Thus the buildings stay a human scale, the sky is aplenty and the neighborhood kind of feels like a small town to its long time residents.

The name Carnegie Hill is derived from the industrial magnate Andrew Carnegie, when Carnegie decided to build himself a mansion at 91st Street and Fifth Avenue….

Carnegie Hill is a family neighborhood with old fashioned upper crust money. The mid-rise co-ops that line the avenues are among the most prestigious addresses in the city. The avenues are lined with small restaurants, boutique shops

The residential towers that have proliferated on the eastside of Third Avenue in the East 90s simply do not exist between Lexington and Fifth.
