Property Description for 245 East 93rd Street, 3-A
Attractively priced two-bedroom, two full bathroom condo at Astor Terrace! Boasting over 1300 square feet, this spacious and bright apartment features generously proportioned rooms, extra-large windows, and fantastic storage and closet space. Upon entry, a gracious entry foyer blends with an impressive L-shaped living space that connects to a lovely dining area with eastern exposures. The galley kitchen includes updated white appliances with a full-size oven and cooktop plus a dishwasher. The bedrooms are positioned on opposite sides of the apartment - either could serve as a primary, as each has its own ensuite bathroom - both are in original but excellent condition. Parquet wood floors, through-wall AC, and a laundry room with full-size washer and dryer complete the apartment.
Astor Place is a desirable, full-service condominium with superb facilities and amenities, including its own private driveway with direct access to a full-service garage, a beautiful lobby, and a new state-of-the-art fitness center. A playroom and additional laundry facilities are also available, and a new multi-purpose room and package room is expected to be completed in early 2023. Best of all, there is a private-gated park/garden exclusively for residents (keyed access), and the new second avenue subway (Q Line) is just one block away (accessed at 94th Street). Monthly assessment currently $1025 per month for capital improvements.
(Note: Some of the rooms in this apartment have been virtually staged. Photos shown are for representation only.)

Upper East Side | Manhattan
Quick Profile
Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.
With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.
Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .
There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
