55 E 86th St #9C

Enjoy the luxury of a rental in a prewar condominium that steps back in time to when all fine buildings offered the security of not only an elevator operator but a doorman/concierge as well. This approximately 1,643 square foot Carnegie Hill home is pin-drop quiet and literally flooded with light through oversized windows facing N, E & W. It features two bedrooms, 2 baths, large family- room/entertainment center/3rd BR, eat-in windowed Kitchen, maid's/laundry room with Bosch washer and dryer, and powder room for guests. The living room features an elegant, black marble wood-burning fireplace and has been opened to the corner formal dining room area, accented by a stunning, crystal Ochre chandelier. There are 9'5" beamed ceilings, built-in closets, through-wall air conditioners, and recently installed high-end window treatments. Kelly Wearstler sconces and sculpted Ann Sacks shower tiles enhance the windowed, primary marble bath. The chef's kitchen has a Thermador stove, oven and dishwasher, Subzero refrigerator, soft close cabinetry, and under-cabinet lighting. This is a mint conditioned, 9th floor home that shares a semi-private landing with only two other neighbors. 55 East 86th Street is one of the few prewar condominiums in Carnegie Hill. Built in 1925, it is a white glove building with full-time doorman, elevator operator and live-in resident manager. It offers amenities of a gym, private storage, and a lush, beautifully planted roof deck. Pets are permitted. Just off Madison Avenue, and within close proximity to Central Park for your daily retreat into nature, it is also conveniently located to the Lexington Avenue IRT subway and city bus routes up, down and across town.
