When you enter the apartment, there's a hallway, with space for coat hooks & a shoe rack. The bathroom is off the hallway (has a window, which is good for ventilation), before you walk into the kitchen. The kitchen is a good size, and is its own room. There's space for a table and other storage in the kitchen (see attached pics).
There's a partial wall between the kitchen & the living room (feels like two separate rooms, but open space between). The living room has two windows that face the street (83rd street).
The apartment has 2 bedrooms - both are large enough for a full bed; one of them is large enough for a queen with space to spare. They both have windows - one is street facing & one is court yard facing. Additionally, they both have decent-sized closets with hanging room and shelving above.
The Location:
One of the best parts of this apartment is the location - it's right between 2nd & 3rd ave. The 86th Q train stop (entrance at 83rd) is half a block from the apartment, and the 86th street 4/5/6 is only a couple blocks away. Additionally, there are nearby bus stops on 2nd & 3rd ave, and the cross town bus only 3 blocks north at 86th street.
There are many options for grocery stores nearby - Fairway is 3 blocks away & Whole Foods is 5. Gristedes & D'Agostinos are just around the corner (1 block away). There are lots of restaurants/coffee shops/bars within steps of the apartment - many of which are re-opened for take out/outdoor dining now.
The Upper East Side has a reputation of wealth and opulence. Once home to the wealthiest New Yorkers (like the Kennedys, the Roosevelts, and the Rockefellers), the UES is filled with ornate and beautiful buildings. Today, the Upper East Side is still considered one of the more expensive neighborhoods, however, in recent years, it has begun to see younger arrivals (people in their 20s and 30s) who are finding better deals up north, away from the Lower East Side and/or hip Williamsburg.
With the completion of the 2nd Avenue train, the neighborhood is only becoming more accessible to everyone as previously the only train servicing the UEW was the 4,5,6 on Lexington Avenue. Even better, the further east you go, the cheaper the apartments get. All this is only adding on to the interest from renters who no longer have to commute for as long to get to the area.
The Upper East Side contains some smaller neighborhoods such as Yorkville, Lenox Hill, Carnegie…
