LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT

PRE-WAR ENCHANTMENT ON THE PARK

The first time I walked into this classic prewar home, it was love at first sight. This well-scaled, L-shaped residence is bathed in light, and its unique, double-arched gallery/foyer spills graciously into the oversized living/dining room. This is a feel-good space with two exposures: One looks East with peeks of the sky, and the other faces North – both offering peaceful sunshine and cross breezes.

The windowed kitchen looks out on the treetops and offers a washer/dryer. The classically appointed bath features a bright East-facing window and soaking tub. King-sized and sunny, the peaceful master bedroom is comfortable and quiet with a practical closet. Quite separate from the master bedroom is the guest bedroom — offering a peek at the treetops, good light, and sweet tranquility.

This happy home is beautiful, with good looking original floors, extra-high coved ceilings, original mouldings, and, most importantly — a feel-good vibe.

Here is a sweetly perched beauty in a treasured, full-service building — a well maintained, well staffed address with a stunning lobby made famous in several major films and TV shows. Aside from the building’s clean, bright laundry room, and storage and bike rooms, the Super lives in the building, and the prized location — right on Riverside Park — is remarkable in all the best ways. Here is your “braggable” proximity Riverside Park, and to every area shopping, dining, cultural, entertainment, and fitness destination — not to mention a plethora of easy transportation options.

It's easy to fall in love with this surprisingly flexible home, well-planned home. It will be my pleasure to introduce you to this wonderful residence.

(There is an ongoing monthly assessment of $185.50)
