123 East 88 Street   Unit 5A

Here s a charming, south-facing, fifth floor walk up, perfect for a first time buyer or as a pied a terre. Located on a quiet, tree-lined block, 123 East 88th Street is in an ideal Carnegie Hill location, just 2 blocks from Central Park, the Guggenheim, and Museum Mile. Buses and taxis are never far away, the Lexington Avenue express and local subways are just around the corner, and shops, restaurants, and services are abundant. Cozy, yes, but many lovely pre-war details remain intact: hardwood floors in very good condition, distinctive baseboard and picture moldings, 9 -foot ceilings, and a transom over the bedroom door. The bedroom also has a cedar closet, and currently accommodates a queen sized bed, end tables, an armoire, chest of drawers, and a sofa, with room left over! The kitchen and bath are windowed, and the closets throughout are all as high as the ceilings. Impeccably maintained, this well-run building has a full-time super and porter, features very low maintenance, but, alas, does not permit pets.
