Rare One-Bedroom

Apartment 2A at 24 East 93rd street is a value on the market. Just listed with Corcoran, the charming one bedroom is located on a beautiful tree-lined side street off Fifth Avenue. The unit has a charming bay window that faces out onto the street, which is occupied exclusively by turn of the century brownstones. Broker Immy Mulin has wisely not posted pictures of the interior, which is cluttered and obstructive to the imagination. However, high ceilings, prewar detail, and a very gracious layout are all there. Though listed as 2A, the apartment is one of two units on the third floor of the townhouse. It is worth noting that the unit next door is owned by a very charming 99-year old woman. The public spaces in the building are a little run down, however, a unique amenity here is that the foyer is video monitored by the doorman of a charming cooperative next door. 

Best of all, the maintenance is $436, meaning you’ll be at ease to enjoy the wonderful restaurants in this stretch of Madison Avenue. Most of the buildings on this street have been converted into single families, so this property is a rare opportunity.
