120 West 70th Street, 9-C

One block from Central Park and bathed in southern light, this former "classic 6" is located in a historic 1917 pre-war building on the coveted Upper West Side. This residence has a generous layout and the rare combination of timeless elegance complimented by modern upgrades. One arrives into a great room that spans over 26 feet, flanked by deep-set windows that offer open and expansive Southern views. Off of the entry hall, there is a large walk in closet that can accommodate a double stroller. The airy feel of this light-filled home is accentuated by its high ceilings, and an abundance of architectural details which include a classic marble decorative fireplace, gleaming walnut plank flooring, and a superb, fully-renovated chef-level eat-in kitchen. This impressive kitchen spans over 13 feet, and its sophisticated aesthetic is enhanced by its smartly outfitted custom storage, top of the line appliances that include a subzero refrigerator, Viking dishwasher, and Garland range that are complimented by custom cabinetry and apothecary pulls, and a fantastic Carrera marble island that extends as a great additional prep area. As one steps into the hallway, the South facing second bedroom is well-proportioned, well-lit, and provides fantastic views over the tree tops. The third bedroom with en-suite bathroom currently offers a great bunk bed with a cleverly designed desk area, but can be reconfigured if one prefers. The Master Bedroom is sizable, and houses three separate closets while offering additional space for a sitting area and/or vanity area if desired. Both bathrooms in the home are superbly renovated, and include dramatic marble, rain-head shower, and fantastic sinks by Madeli and Whitehaus. Finally, the home comes complete with its own Bosch washer and dryer. This quiet, private, and well maintained boutique co-op offers a live-in Superintendent, a play room, a sizable storage unit that is conveyed with this sale, a central Laundry Room, and a beautifully created courtyard complete with furniture and planters. Just blocks from Central Park, the building is conveniently located next to Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, superb eateries, and all major transportation.
