About 523 E 85th St #1C

Want a no-fee Upper East Side studio that actually comes with a backyard? Apartment 1C at 523 East 85th Street, between York and East End Avenues, is a studio with one bath and access to a backyard. It's a studio, so living and sleeping share one main room. The photos are of this exact unit and show the backyard, the main room, the kitchen and the bathroom. The main room cover photo is labeled Virtually staged because the source photo arrived staged, and the empty version of that room, with furniture digitally removed, comes right after it. You're close to Carl Schurz Park and the East River esplanade. The trade off is the subway: the Q at 86th Street and Second Avenue is roughly a 10 minute walk. Rent is $3,150 a month with no broker fee to the tenant, and the apartment is available now. Rent, availability and features can change, so please confirm at the showing.
