106 East 85th St. #4N

Located on the Upper East Side, 106 East 85th Street is a charming boutique building, one of a small remaining group in Manhattan built in the World War I era. Apartment 4N is a classic 7, and an early example of the “foyer plan” (a plan where the public and private areas of apartments were separated by a foyer at the entry) which was widely adopted in the 1920’s because of its outstanding livability. This immaculate light-filled apartment has 5 large windows which face north onto a pretty tree-lined block of 85th Street, just east of Park Avenue. The living room, with its wood-burning fireplace and 9’4" ceilings, has been combined with the formal dining room into one large Great Room. The room can be divided once again, if desired. On the bedroom hall is a comfortable master bedroom with an en-suite bath and two other bedrooms sharing a hall bath. The large eat-in kitchen has high-end appliances and abundant storage space. Off of the kitchen is a 4th bedroom/staff room with full bath and washer and dryer. The apartment has beautiful original wood herringbone parquet floors. The prewar moldings and details throughout the apartment have been meticulously restored. The apartment also offers through-wall air conditioning, generous closet space and thoughtfully designed, efficient storage throughout. The building has a live-in super and a part-time doorman. Doorman hours are: Monday-Friday, 7am until 11pm; Saturday, 3pm to midnight; Sunday, 3pm to 11pm. The apartment comes with an individual storage bin in the basement. There is a building laundry room, playroom, bike room and courtyard. The building is in excellent physical condition and uses natural gas for fuel. Pet friendly. 106 East 85th Street is a good place to call home!
