High-Floor Pre-War Residence with Light and Classic Charm

Perched on a high floor, this elegant Classic 6 is filled with natural light, featuring soaring ceilings, original hardwood floors, and open views that enhance its pre-war character. Offering 2 large bedrooms with en-suite baths and an additional office with a half bath, the open-plan layout seamlessly blends timeless architectural details with a modern flow.

Located in a boutique 28-unit cooperative, the apartment offers a semi-private landing with only two residences per floor, ensuring privacy and exclusivity. A gracious entry gallery leads to the corner living room, where a wood-burning fireplace with a marble and wood mantle serves as a focal point. With north- and west-facing exposures, this bright space is ideal for both entertaining and quiet relaxation.

Adjacent to the gallery, the expansive east-facing dining room is bathed in morning light, creating a warm and inviting setting. The windowed kitchen is well-appointed with custom cabinetry, a Garland 6-burner gas range with a griddle and salamander broiler, a Thermador refrigerator, and a dedicated baking and pastry station with a marble countertop.

The primary suite features a walk-in closet and a beautifully renovated en-suite windowed bathroom with basket weave marble tile flooring and Waterworks fixtures. The second bedroom offers high ceilings, two large windows, and an en-suite bathroom with Daltile Octagon and Dot beige mosaic tile and a Kohler sink. A potential third bedroom, currently used as an office, features custom shelving and an east-facing window that brings in abundant morning light. The en-suite bathroom has a stacked washer dryer installed where the shower used to be, but can easily revert back to a full bathroom.

Built in 1924 and converted to a cooperative in 1980, 108 East 86th Street is a distinguished full-service building offering a full-time doorman, resident manager, fitness center, bike room, individual storage, and laundry facilities. Pets and pieds-a-terre are welcome, and up to 75% financing is permitted. Ideally located near the 4, 5, 6, and Q subway lines, Whole Foods, and Fairway, this home combines the best of Upper East Side living with convenience and charm.
