130 West 67th Street, 24-B

The photos speak for themselves - custom Italian kitchen, marble bath, recessed and Italian lighting fixtures, German (Miele & Liebherr) kitchen appliances, oak floors, 6 inch crown moldings - and that's just the beginning in this high-end gut renovated apartment with open views on the 24th floor of a full service doorman building. The location in Lincoln Square - is just superb! Need to go downtown or crosstown? The number 1 train is a block away and the M65 bus two blocks. An evening at the theatre can end with a 20 minutes stroll home on a sultry summer evening or on a calm and brisk winter night. If you've spent the evening at Lincoln Center you'll be home in 6 minutes - 10 minutes if you stop for a Mr. Softee. Time for your daily bike ride? Well, take your wheels out of the building's bike room and you've got leafy Central Park a block and a half away or the entire Riverside Park/Hudson River bike path, from the very top of Manhattan to the bottom at South Ferry to explore. If you don't have a bicycle, walk across the street, slip a card into the slot and take a Citibike. When your Ipad or Iphone are acting up, the Apple Store is directly across the street where you can get the help you need. (You can look down on the Apple Store's glass roof from the apartment to see how busy they are before making the trip across the street. It may save you a lot of wait time.) Shopping? Your choice - Zabar's, Citerella, Whole Foods and Trader Joes - as well as neighborhood "mom-n-pop" bakeries, convenience stores and specialty food stores. Then there's the dining-out story! An almost unlimited number of restaurants with an almost unlimited number of cuisines - from pizza "slice joints" to elegant 5 star dining. Renovated with very high-end finishes and coupled with a sensational location, apartment 24B at the Toulaine provides the quintessential New York City living experience.
