UPPER EAST SIDE DUPLEX
$999,000
MANHATTAN: 511 East 82nd Street (between York and East End Avenues), #1E
A two-bedroom, two-bath co-op with a fireplace and a private garden in a prewar building. Kate Burton, Halstead Property (212) 381-2311; www.halstead.com
MAINTENANCE: $1,800 a month
PROS: Exposed brick walls, hardwood floors and 10-foot ceilings give this apartment classic charm. The kitchen, which has a Viking stove and a Sub-Zero refrigerator, makes clever use of space. The garden is tiled, fenced and perfect for entertaining.
CONS: The master bedroom is a little dark because it is partially below ground. The building is a long walk from the nearest subway station.
