250 West 82nd Street, 51

This sprawling and bright 8-room home is situated at the Saxony, an architecturally significant building designed by the pre-eminent New York City architect, Emery Roth. Rambling and open, the apartment has exposures north, south and west affording much light and air. The high ceilings, classic well-maintained parquet and strip original hardwood floors, and old world charm and character throughout make this apartment stand out. The living space can be left open and loft-like as it is currently, or, one can create a formal dining room, dramatic entry gallery, plus two separate living rooms. One might call the library/bedroom, off the living room, a bonus room, that extra room everyone wants. The kitchen, a corner room, is quite large at almost 20x15. It is easily eat in and a wonderful place to cook and gather. The three (currently configured as two) bedrooms are in a separate wing with 2.5 bathrooms. There is the potential to create 3 plus bathrooms. Washer and dryer are in the apartment. The kitchen and baths need updating. 250 W 82nd Street is a wonderful building ideally located in the heart of the Upper West Side, near transportation, museums, parks, gourmet food and other shopping. This well established coop has a gym, individual storage units, bike room, meeting/play room, live-in super and a part-time doorman. The arbored roof terrace is a new addition to the building and offers a magnificent retreat. Pet friendly.
