About This Property
SUN, SUN, SUN! Bright 2-Bedroom on Tree-Lined West 86th Street.
Set on one of the Upper West Side's most desirable blocks between West End Avenue and Riverside Drive, this bright and quiet corner two-bedroom, one-bathroom residence offers gracious proportions, soaring ceilings, and an abundance of natural light.
With ceilings over 10 feet high, the spacious living room is framed by two oversized south-facing windows bringing in unmatched all-day light exposure. The corner primary bedroom enjoys a coveted double exposure with four windows facing south and west, creating a bright and peaceful retreat. Two large closets provide generous storage, while the second bedroom features two west-facing windows and an ample closet. Hardwood flooring throughout adds to the warmth and historic nature of the unit. Both bedrooms have room to accommodate a king-sized bed and dressers.
The newly renovated windowed kitchen is thoughtfully separated from the bedroom and living spaces. Quartz countertops, open shelving, and abundant drawer storage is complemented by a Bertazonni gas range, Miele washer and dryer, Miele refrigerator/freezer and a Blomberg dishwasher. A beautiful Louis Poulsen PH 5 pendant light creates a design-forward and modern aesthetic to the kitchen area.
There is additional storage in the kitchen entrance, along with a private storage closet on the fifth floor included with the apartment.
Built in 1915 by distinguished architects Mulliken and Moeller, 320 West 86th Street and its neighboring 310 West 86th Street form an architecturally distinctive cooperative with matching historic facades and ornate entryways. The elegant lobby features lavish terracotta detailing and is attended by a 24-hour doorman. Residents also enjoy a live-in resident manager, laundry facilities, bike storage, and private storage in the basement for $42.50 per month.
The pet-friendly cooperative permits pied-à-terre ownership, co-purchasing, gifting on a case-by-case basis, and allows up to 75% financing.
Just half a block from Riverside Park, the residence is ideally positioned near the neighborhood's celebrated restaurants (such as Maison Pickle and Barney Greengrass around the corner), cafés, shops, and everyday conveniences. The 1 train and crosstown buses are conveniently located nearby.
A rare combination of light, quiet, architectural character, and classic Upper West Side charm-this exceptional home is not to be missed.
Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Corcoran Group.
A Miele washer and dryer are inside the apartment, so laundry happens at home. The kitchen is newly renovated and has its own window, with a Bertazonni gas range, a Miele refrigerator and freezer, a Blomberg dishwasher, quartz countertops and open shelving. I like that it's set apart from the bedroom and living spaces, so cooking can stay out of the rooms where you sit.
The living room has two oversized south-facing windows. The primary bedroom sits on a corner with four windows facing south and west, and the second bedroom has two west-facing windows. A south-facing window can get about 8.5 hours of direct sun on the winter solstice, from 7:41 AM to 4:07 PM, and about 6.1 hours on the summer solstice, from 9:55 AM to 4:01 PM. Those figures assume an open horizon, and nearby buildings can block some of that light.
Ceilings are over 10 feet, and the floors are hardwood throughout. Both bedrooms have room for a king-sized bed and dressers. The apartment has two large closets, a closet in the second bedroom, storage in the kitchen entrance, and a private storage closet on the fifth floor, which gives you a place for items you don't keep in the apartment.
Mulliken and Moeller designed 320 and 310 West 86th Street in 1915, and the two buildings share matching historic facades. The lobby has terracotta detailing and a 24-hour doorman. The co-op permits pied-a-terre ownership, co-purchasing and gifting on a case-by-case basis, with financing of up to 75 percent. Pets are allowed.
Riverside Park is about 2 minutes away on foot, and the 86 St station on the 1 train is about 4 minutes away. Barney Greengrass is about 7 minutes on foot, and Zabar's is about 8 minutes.
