241 West 108th Street, 5-B

This mint and charming Prewar home offers its owner an exceptionally functional layout: a split one bedroom plus home office/babys room, gorgeously renovated 1 1/2 baths (including washer/dryer), plus an open chefs kitchen (granite counter-tops and top-of-the line stainless appliances) with dining bar and a separate dining area. With 98 ceilings and wonderful light from southern, northern, and western exposures, beautiful 2 oak floors, picture molding and wainscoting, this lovely offering is one of the Upper West Sides best kept secrets. Nestled near the vibrancy of Columbia University, some of the Upper West Sides best restaurants, and some of Manhattans premier landmarks, such as St. John the Divine and Riverside Chapel, the neighborhood doesnt get much better than this. This boutique part-time doorman cooperative also offers its owners a fantastic landscaped roof deck, live-in Super, part-time lobby attendant, bicycle storage, and video intercom. Co-purchasing, gifts, guarantors, Pied a terres are permitted, and pets are welcome.
