225 E 86Th St

The Buckingham East is a 15-story condominium built in 1981 composed primarily of one-bedroom layouts, including several distinctive multi-level triplex/duplex residences with solariums and private terraces. The architecture reads as a traditional Upper East Side residential block with a planted, furnished roof deck and garden elements; many units feature oversized windows, high ceilings and loft-like volume. Interiors commonly include eat-in kitchens, formal dining areas, walk-in closets, built-in storage and recessed lighting; select apartments offer marble finishes, jacuzzi tubs and recent HVAC upgrades. Shared provisions emphasize full-service living: a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, central laundry, bike room and building storage are standard, and pet ownership is allowed. On-site conveniences extend to extra private storage and elevator service. Situated on East 86th Street in Yorkville, the property is within easy walking distance of supermarkets, cafes, museums, Carl Schurz Park, Central Park and multiple subway lines, supporting both transit access and neighborhood retail. The building’s management and active common spaces cater to residents seeking a maintained, full-service condominium experience in an established Manhattan enclave.
