59 West 71st Street, 8-A

Rarely available, this two bedroom, two bath home with a separate dining room is conveniently located on a quiet, tree-lined park block in the heart of the historic Upper West Side. Bring your personal style to this charming pre-war Classic Six, which has windows in every room and 9'4" ceilings. The living room and bedrooms all face south with unobstructed views of the soaring midtown skyline and the neighboring brownstones below.

Upon entering Apartment 8A, a lengthy entrance gallery greets you with built-in bookshelves and parquet wood floors that flow throughout the home. As you pass by the well-proportioned kitchen, you will notice highly desired windows over the sink, ample counter space and direct access to a utility room, which has a washer/dryer and can easily serve as a den or home office. The adjacent dining room is roomy enough to host large gatherings and features a convenient kitchen pass-through with lovely etched glass windows, easily concealed within sliding pocket doors.

Proceed next to the spacious living room which enjoys a southern exposure, illuminated with ever-changing hues throughout the day. A separate hallway provides privacy leading to the bedrooms through doors from the living room or the dining room. The light-filled master bedroom boasts four closets with built-in cabinets for extra storage and a private en-suite bath. The sun-kissed second bedroom is bright, airy and very convenient to another bath.

59 West 71st Street is a financially solid, pre-war elevator building with a newly renovated lobby and only four apartments on each of ten floors. Completed in 1924, this intimate and highly coveted building is an ideal place to call home. There is key-fob entry and a central laundry room, plus bicycle and other storage options (additional fees.) It is also very close to the 1, 2, 3, B, C Subway lines, the crosstown 72nd Street bus, Central Park and all the wonderful dining and shopping options the Upper West Side has to offer.
