514 E 82nd St Unit 5W New York, NY 10028

A classic New York apartment in the heart of the coveted Yorkville neighborhood, this charming and spacious unit overflows with historic details and vintage old world charm. Priced to sell, this is an excellent opportunity to put your own stamp on a residence in a well-maintained prewar brownstone. The four-room home, just under 600 square feet, is a traditional railroad-style apartment with windows in every room and a flexible layout that allows for a variety of uses. The top-floor setting, with no neighbors upstairs, is very quiet and provides for lots of natural light throughout.

The largest room, which can be used as either a living room or bedroom, features a gorgeous decorative fireplace framed by an exposed brick accent wall, plus high ceilings and crown molding complemented by copious natural light that streams in via windows equipped with beautiful built-in shutters. The second bedroom or living room is also quite spacious and works well as a den or hangout room, while the dining room, which includes floor-to-ceiling built-in closets, can also be converted to a bedroom or home office. The homey eat-in kitchen has high ceilings, a large window that lets in lots of sunlight, and tons of cabinet space. Large enough to fit a small table and chairs, with a tasteful renovation this will be a marvelous chefs space. The bathroom boasts soaring 15-foot ceilings and a skylight; currently equipped with a stall shower, it is easily large enough to fit a bathtub after renovation.

This quiet tree-lined block is a serene setting, with the leafy green expanse of Carl Shurz Park and East River Waterfront Esplanade both just two short blocks from your front door. A wide array of restaurants and shops are just around the corner on York and First Avenues; the massive Fairway gourmet market is a short walk away; and several of Manhattans very best schools are in the immediate vicinity. Priced to sell in an all-cash deal, this is a fantastic opportunity to create your own perfect New York apartment.
